Not true at all. He gets more animated but I’ve seen him get plenty riled up on other things. Just because he’s not yelling “I GUAAARRRRAAANNNTTEEEEEE” doesn’t mean he’s not animated.
Alexander Berletic agreed. He got the voice down a bit, but he needs to be a bit more chipper. Jay Pharoah got the “teaming up” on Shaq part down-pact though. He just needs to interrupt a little more to be spot on.
Gotta give Barkley credit, anytime he performed in SNL sketches, he wasn't afraid to make fun of himself and he always got a good laugh from the audience. Class act. :)
Can we all appreciate how Kenan can manipulate his own voice so well that he actually sounds like Barkley? That is an extremely impressive impression in my opinion
Hader is such a great cast member of the last decade. This skit could have been better but that "we're all black friends" line was outrageous and funny. Glad to see them crack up a bit, as all the best SNL skits have them.
When they first showed "Shaq" I was like "man this guy looks a lot more like Charles Barkley he should be playing him instead", until I then read the description...😂
If someone, who didn't know Shaquille O'Neal much, saw this sketch, he'd think Shaq was a boring person, while he's one of the craziest and funniest people in the world.
I love this. It is a real commentary on the worth of these sports programs with former player talking heads. And Keenan impersonating Sir Charles and Sir Charles impersonating Shaw...I love this!
nah this sucked.if they were going to make a commentary about the worth of former players being talking heads, inside the nba is a horrible pick to spoof. I don't think the people who wrote this watch much of Inside the nba
iliketuna: All the former jocks chatting about sports format for one game, half time and post game are dumb. As a former sports section Co editor for a very small circulation college paper I'm astounded by the waste of time all that is for the smart fan. Play some music during the game. Wait until tip off to start watching the game. Go read a book. Learn about your culture.
Oh my god get over yourself dude. Inside the NBA is for laughs and entertainment, there is nothing wrong with that. Believe it or not fans of the show also find time to read books, learn about culture etc. You sound like a clueless pompous tool honestly
uh huh. Never mind that there are actual college and pro athletes that do enjoy the show. But hey I'm sure your little stint at a small college paper makes you an expert on the topic of who finds inside the nba entertaining, and what should be done instead of watching it. Did you just get out of college or something? because you really do sound like somebody who was just in college and took a few courses and now they think they are a woke and sophisiicated expert on things
Barkley pretending to be Shaq accidentally being Barkley. Love it.
Lol that’s true
@Kenny H But we will play it with our feet.
While Keenan pretends to be him.
Pp
No you don’t.
“We’re all black friends”
*everyone breaks character*
that wouldve been funny but he said raw black friends
@@longandwindingroad no he said we're all black friends
I swear I heard “Raw” as well.
@MUFC nah soccer sucks
Even Barkley looked at him and giggled
“We’re all black friends” you could tell they didn’t know that was in the script lol
Holy crap that might be one of those John Mulaney pranks where he edits Hader’s cue cards.
Might have been ad-libbed because it was a meme :D
Joe Dy it’s a reference to when Ernie actually said this on the show lmaooo
😂😂😂thought he said raw black friends I was cracking up
That was a great moment but he said "RAW BLACK FRIENDS".
Charles nailed Shaq, Shaq only gets animated when he is talking about his career.
GOOGLE ME CHUCK . 4 RINGS CHUCK WHERE U @.
@@hititmanify you sound just like Shaq 🤣🤣
TBH Shaq wasn't my fave center
Or when he’s talking about Chucks career
Not true at all. He gets more animated but I’ve seen him get plenty riled up on other things. Just because he’s not yelling “I GUAAARRRRAAANNNTTEEEEEE” doesn’t mean he’s not animated.
E.j. totally plays along with the boys and balances the show perfectly. Funny but Ernie is cooler in reality.
yeah I don't understand, the ernie impersonation was nothing like him at all
Lmao right, everyone loves Ej
E.J is the coolest whiteman on TV he makes the show run smoother.
Luka Magic VIKTOR
Alexander Berletic agreed. He got the voice down a bit, but he needs to be a bit more chipper. Jay Pharoah got the “teaming up” on Shaq part down-pact though. He just needs to interrupt a little more to be spot on.
i love it how jay and kenan just lose it after bill's comment at the end haha
Was that the first time they actually cracked ever?
How can you not cry from laughing at that part which I'm doing?
Jackson Brackin i have a feeling Bill ad libbed that part bc they didn’t expect it at all lol.
What’s with this fucking dead crowd that didn’t laugh at that line? Audience sucked that night!
It's probably because he's heard it before.
I think Charles Barkley is accidentally one of the best sketch comedians of the past 30 years.
agreed. i love all his bad acting performances
I don’t think he’s acting
You know it's fake when Tony Allen got 8/8
🤣
lmao
This was 2013
Dennison John Callora LMAOOOO
That was the funniest part 😂
When bill hader delivers "we're all black friends" and barkley, the only non-comedian, is the only one not laughing
Lucas Ryan it’s because he knows it’s true
He's in character...
@@Hot4Thot Yeah, but they're all in character. His point was that he was the only one able to stay in character.
He said raw black friends
He was clearly holding in a laugh a bit. Why are we over analyzing this shit who cares
You know it’s old when the score they came up with to look like a regular nba score is 86-90
🤣🤣fax
that was a little low for 2012
@@josephvernon21 yeah but the average score back then was between 95-110 compared to now being between 107-125 so much closer than today
Barkley as Shaq was so simple it made me laugh so hard
Gotta give Barkley credit, anytime he performed in SNL sketches, he wasn't afraid to make fun of himself and he always got a good laugh from the audience. Class act. :)
His _Daily Affirmations_ with Muggsy is still the best of the bunch.
Barkleys acting is so bad that it's funny
Jin Xo Perfect impression of Shaq.
Nebula Shaq is not bad!!!
It’s not bad acting. It’s intentionally deadpan because that’s how Shaq talks. It was a perfect impression
How can he keep on staying serious...
Thank you! Sheesh people are so dense
we are all black friends
I thought that's what I heard
"Raw, black friends"
Yea that's what I heard too.
Wakanda forever
walter bishop That part had to be improvised
2:20 sounds exactly like chuck
DZA And then the “uh oh, here we go” even sounded just like Kenny too lmao
The way he said terrible 😂😂😂
This skit had to be Charles idea 😂
Funniest thing about tf this is tony allen scoring 20 on 100% fg percentage
You can tell Barkley had a lot of power in this sketch because almost every joke was aimed at Shaq this was personal for Charles
Hader's Ernie Johnson is severely under rated
No it’s not. Ernie’s far from the wet blanket Hader made him out to be.
Yeah this skit is perfect if Chuck wasn’t there
It’s horrible
The actual show is like a million times funnier. The we are all black friends is a legit thing that happened lol
I don’t remember EJ saying that
I think it’s more a joke based off how many times ppl make jokes Ernie is a secret black guy
@@wilderac2250 he did there's a compliation called ernie johnson being black where he says it
@@yessir7630 alright "Jahmai"
@@FormedUnique Holy shit, this skit was less parody than we all realized :D
The Kenny impression is freaking insane
Sounds just like him!
Ahahahah accurate too
He said dead on Kenny 😂
Jay Pharaoh is the legend
It was awful ,are you kidding me?
Kenan mouthing other people's lines. 4:23
Lol... Good catch.
Will Smith used to do that on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
If you watch the "Rap Song" skit, he mouths The Rock's lines in that too. i bet theres a bunch of them with him doing it.
good for his memory but he should hide it better obviously lol good catch
any specific reason he would do that? like for acting or whatnot
You know Barkley LOVED every second of this sketch. He loves messing with him.
“It’s me: Shaq. I’m here now.”
Can we all appreciate how Kenan can manipulate his own voice so well that he actually sounds like Barkley? That is an extremely impressive impression in my opinion
💯
The guy who played shaq has a better Barkley impression than the guy who played barkley
thats because that is Barkley, genius
Stefan Thornberry that was sarcasm you asshat
Stefan Thornberry i know right people are so dumb, only intellectuals know whats up
@@stefanthornberry3838 after 5 years i still haven't found someone missing a joke this badly
@@n0follow😂😂
oh my gawsh he does an amazing ernie johnson, i almost didnt know the difference
Gillterfy that was a joke
Ekhaya you don’t watch the show do you...?
Ekhaya ki
it's as good as it could be
He wasn't even wearing a bowtie.
"Its me, Shaq, Im here now, Im on TV, Im Shaq" LOLOL
"And then we dared Hakeem Olajuwon to fight an alligator to the death and I lost $50 betting on the alligator"
lmao
we're all black friends :)
"Raw, black friends"
Its "we are"
Jacob Gauthier lol what?
@@stefanthornberry3838 Did sound like that, but no
@Ken Roberts It's 100% "raw, black friends." You're an idiot.
4:50 is a Kenan & Kel routine right? 😂
Paolo Angelino Guerrero i thought that too haha
Good one
This got me excited
Awwwwwwwwww! Here it goes!
Barkley could have easily been an SNL cast member...
He kills it every time he's on.
Check him out in the SNL "McGrubber" skits. "Sensitivity Training."
20 points from Toney Allen might be the funniest part😂
On 100% shooting.
I ate ribs! 🤣 🤣 😂 😂 I'm done
"Yes, yes. Boo me. I LOVE IT." BILL HADER IS AMAZING
Holy shit Keenan Thompson makes the best Charles Barkley impression
We're not going to talk about how perfect Kenan impersonation is of Charles
bill as EJ is underrated lmao his voice too good
That’s gotta be the closest Kenan has been to laughing in a sketch. Dude is so strong
Keenan always laughs in his skits
He smiles all the time :) whether you view that as breaking or not :) is up to you :)
Ernie Johnson tryna keep it authentic LMFAOOOO
And Kenny Smith impression 😂
Shaq sucked he sounded more like Barkley
B D shaq was barkley lol
Swoosh
Manraj Saini how do you know..?
Hader is such a great cast member of the last decade. This skit could have been better but that "we're all black friends" line was outrageous and funny. Glad to see them crack up a bit, as all the best SNL skits have them.
Bill Hader’s impressions are always on point
That Barkley impression was impressive lmao
When they first showed "Shaq" I was like "man this guy looks a lot more like Charles Barkley he should be playing him instead", until I then read the description...😂
"Im the great shaqtradamus"😂😂😂😂😂😂
I dropped my phone when he said Sidney Poitierrrr😂😂
10 years later and this is still one of my favorite sketches of all time lol. fuck man its so good
Barkley does "dead-pan" better than anyone. I mean, it's his only trick, But he does it 1000% better than anyone.
That’s the greatest Ernie Johnson I’ve ever heard. Harder killed it. Also Kenny the Jet was on point!
Bill Hader is normally a great impressionist but nah, his Ernie is terrible.
Hader
I am convinced that Barkley went on SNL just to do this skit
killing me! OMG the love Chuck gave Shaq !! dying over here. Grandma Ruth snorted!!
Barkley is a national treasure
"Why is there an asterisk next to your name, Charles?"
"Cause I got arrested."
Dead.
Charles Barkley as Shaq that's hilarious 😂😂😂
Kenan was mouthing Jay’s lines at 4:24 🤣🤣🤣
Keen eye.
Jay Pharoah 100% sounds just like Kenny! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank YOU!!!
I don’t think “we’re all black friends” was scripted cuz they all damn near lost it 😂😂😂
ruclips.net/video/3MND7SGZoRI/видео.html
Even Charles O'Neal almost broke character there
If someone, who didn't know Shaquille O'Neal much, saw this sketch, he'd think Shaq was a boring person, while he's one of the craziest and funniest people in the world.
Thank you for my hardest face palm in a good while
*this sketch*
Your Head
"Shaq I wouldn't watch your movies if they were in my eyelids" Hilarious
the charles impression is unreal imo!!!!
You can see the exact moment Jay Pharoah saw the cue card Bill Hader read. Someone definitely inserted that joke right at that moment. 04:31
Hader does an amazing Ernie Johnson lol
4:23 when Keenan starts mouthing every line knowing that the best line in the entire skit is about to hit 😅😅
The whole time Bill Haders character is like the teacher in the classroom trying to rein in the chaos
Have you seen the NBA on TNT? That’s Ernie’s entire job
“You making me sound like Sidney portieeerrr. 😂😂😂😂
Jay’s Kenny Impression was on point 😂😂
Whoever made that graphic with Tony Allen getting 20pts 8/8 FG deserves a medal
Bill Hader sounds more like Paul Finebaum lol.
I love this. It is a real commentary on the worth of these sports programs with former player talking heads. And Keenan impersonating Sir Charles and Sir Charles impersonating Shaw...I love this!

Kenan does such a great Charles Barkley impression.
Lmfao I saw the guy playing Shaq and said “He looks way more like Chuck” then I realized it was Charles 😂😂
All I can think was, "damn them scores low" then I check the year 😂
The guy on the left kinda looked like Charles Barkley. He should have played Barkley.
Bill Hader nails EJ's vocal delivery and vibe!
The Charles impersonation is so good 😂
Kenan does a damn good Chuck impression
Bill Hader plays Ernie so well
And Ernie loved it! :D
I thought he said raw black friends 😂
lincoln dasema ha! I thought i was the only one who heard that😂
Hahaha same
At first I heard the same thing!
Me too! I was confused. It wasn't until I read the comments that I realized what he actually said.
i wish i was there to see Barkley approve this sketch 😂
That’s such a good ernie impression
“Haha too bad you missed!” 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Hader nailed EJ. Fantastic impression!
Charles B is such a good sport!!
That guy who did the the Shaq impression sound like Charles Barkley
Patrick McGee it was 😂
Excellent. The guy playing Kenny The Jet is spot-on
Hader great impersonation of Ernie
All those last-minute list calling on the Kenan and Kel show prepared Kenan for that very moment in the end!
The absolute BEST Shaq impersonator, hands down, is Aries Spears. I wish SNL would hire him.
Loved the shout-out to the end of every Kenan and Kell episode at the end of the skit
Shaqs commentating on nba 2k19 had me dying. Its so funny.
Keenan Thompson as Charles Barkley and Charles Barkley as Shaq 😂😂😂😂
Barkley should've gotten the oscar for that.
“Who is giving them all these props?” 😂
I lost 50 grand betting on a alligator 😂
“Kenny” and “Charles” listing stuff at the end is an awesome reference to Keenan and Kel lol
Whoa just noticed Kenan and Jay did that thing from “Kenan and Kel”. Aww here it goes.
Possibly the most under rated skit in the almost 50 years of SNL
Jay’s Kenny is so on point. Kenny is like that one kid who always hyped up fights
4:31 I actually think Charles Barkley missed one of his lines. That’s why Bill Hader looks at him then wraps up the sketch and they’re all laughing 😂
