Seth Meyers referred to this as a “hat on a hat”. Its just sort of random comedic elements on top of one another. It’s muddled. This is just lazy writing bc they are just throwing a bunch of shit at the wall.
"Why do you think you're MMM material? Sorry I stuttered. Material" is an underrated line. Like "why do you think you're material" is a question one asks. And then he vaporizes.
@@mikecantreed a "hat on a hat" conceptually is two (or more) unrelated funny things happening either too closely or on top of eachother which distract from eachother.

He is a trained British actor you have to learn different forms of acting. It is an American thing to only learn one type acting. Leonardo Di Caprio basically plays the same person in every movie with a different scenario 😂
This reminds me of that one intro from The Office when Michael made Pam come in different times to give him a post it note to make it look like Michael was actually important😂 I love it
Bowen is so unnecessary in this sketch but he's so dang hilarious in it!!!! The "Hi" on the sticky note and "Stop it! You'll kill each other!" almost killed me 💀💀💀💀 🤣🤣🤣
@@betyerpwet nah it’s just a joke. The acronym for the company is MMM, so the interviewer asks why the guy thinks he’s “MMM material,” but then the joke is that he was actually trying to say material. It’s less funny explained lol
@@IantheDugan Most likely because of Rege. He's the lead in Netflix highest watched Show ever, too talented and rising faster than most in recent memory, so the bar is high for SNL to not dip his popularity. He and they delivered. Big time.
I feel like so much of this episode was a whole fever dream. Like they went to Kyle and were like ‘this episode is for you. All of the skits-they’re yours to write.. “ and I’m here for it. Also, I appreciate Bowen’s talent more and more. Even just the small part in this.. he’s just so good at scaling the humor to the perfect level according to the role.
Who's style was this sketch? Normally you can guess the writer (especially with Mulaney because they're all gold) but I've never seen a sketch with this kind of pacing before
This was one of the FUNNIEST sketches I’ve seen on SNL in a long time. Its beautiful and hilarious. I’m getting strong Beck vibes but whoever wrote this... MORE PLEASE
BECK is 1 of my favs...always delivers..like kenan...idk his mannerisms and his voice especially..hes smart with his approach.hes very good at emotions and using his voice to overdramatize the line....solid and 1 of their best so glad hes been there awhile..hope hes there for longer..
@@TheRnBFan the agency's name is Mixed Martial Media, so the first time you hear MMM material, you think it is the abbreviation of the firm's name, but then they turn it around. BEST JOKE in the whole thing
I love the increasing absurdity of this sketch. Bowen coming in with a note just to say hi & crying over his lost hat, lol But I legit lost it at 'Stop it, you'll kill each other"!
This sketch was all over the fucking place. I loved it.

It’s like how high are they when they write this stuff & whats wrong with me for loving the absurdity 🤣
i hadn't seen a good absurd sketch in a while
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love the gradual descent into insanity of this past year. 😭
Somehow the "Hi" note put me on the floor.

And he is so attractive
He was excellent.

I agree. I was kind of skeptical, but his timing, command over different accents, and ease in front of a live audience pleasantly surprised me.

“Why do you think you’re MMM material -sorry, I stutter- material?”
That is pure gold.
"Why do you think you're MATERIAL?" he asks a guy who turns out to be a figment of his imagination or something.
@@mariaquiet6211 😂
Omg I did not get that until reading this comment. lol, thank you!!
Oooooo
i cant believe it didn't get any laughs
“Stop it, you’ll kill each other!”

SAME 😭😂😭😂😭
wow, that's when you lost it?? you must be the "fun" one of the group!! yikes
@@Jokerdan76 naaah I'm sure you're loads more fun.
Finally its a man doing it.
I love the touch that Bowen's character brought to the sketch
Hilarious!
That Bowen is a scene stealer without even trying! Love him!!!
Bowen saying “stop it, stop it, you’ll kill each other” made me laugh way more than it should
THIS WAS SOME CLASSIC SHIT- the back and forth, the rando notes, the funny side bits and gags! That was amazing!!
Please. It was on a 4th-grade level.
@@TJ-vj2hc ok bruh. If you didnt like it, fine by me. You dont need to go around arguing with other people's opinions

Did you catch the nod to the "magical negro" at the end? Genius.
@@TwistedOnyx369 I couldn't make it to the end, it was so bad. SNL is on a losing streak lately.
"Stop it, you'll kill each other!"
"He took my hat"
Bowen Yang stole the show with a total of 2 seconds.
Suddenly, I'm imagining a version of this sketch with Susie, Lancer and Ralsei.
This reminds me of that one intro from The Office when Michael made Pam come in different times to give him a post it note to make it look like Michael was actually important😂 I love it

It’s “bet you can’t eat just one”
As in they’re so delicious you won’t be able to stop eating them.
Mission failed. We’ll get ‘em next time.
You had the perfect chance to say "Hold my Play-Doh"........... 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
They're still in your stomach?
😂😂😂😂😂😂
if not for the laugh track, this could easily be mistaken as a surreal youtube comedy sketch. that's genuinely a good sign.
When did laugh track get redefined to include live laughter?
does anyone get the feeling Kyle had a hand in writing this?? It really feels like him and beck!
Yes I felt the same way
Yea def.. well theyve been best friends since college
Kyle loves the disappearing characters
Yes. It checked all the boxes, except starring Kyle in a role where the subtext is that he’s too weird to star in anything.
Oh definitely this is so their style
I love it how Bowen Yang ran up to Rege Jean Page and handed him a note that said “Hi.”😂
I think he got a crush on him
Is this real people commenting?
@@jb400years4 no
@@jb400years4 Yes

I love it when he speaks in any accent... or just speaks... or just looks without speaking. Lol. Bless the woman that gets to have kids with him 😩
@@DarthFurie don't they already have kids?
@@LindaC616 Nope
I prefer his normal British accent. Our American accents are the most boring of them all.
It's so good. Like one of the best I've heard
When BOWEN CAME IN “HE TOOK MY HAT” bruuuuuh why did I busted out laughing!
As someone in the ad business, this rang way too true. Especially the ads in his book.
Kevin Netflix will be so excited to hear this.
next call tim apple
Can you imagine if Netflix really did add porn? That mic drop would be epic.
That “MMM material” joke went under appreciated lol
Finally found a comment acknowledging this !
because I did't get it
THANK YOU - that's insanely solid writing, great stuff.
Is it a reference to Madonna’s song?
@@betyerpwet nah it’s just a joke. The acronym for the company is MMM, so the interviewer asks why the guy thinks he’s “MMM material,” but then the joke is that he was actually trying to say material. It’s less funny explained lol
It may be one of their best skits ever. Well written and directed.
Porn on Netflix would it the most valuable company in the world ha
As an art director at a major corporation, this is the best thing ever.
"We have your daughter."
"we're losing millions."
"Hi"
All the notes.
"Your mom is topless in the lobby."
"Hmm. She's early."
Hey those are things in the video we're all watching! Great comment.
The notes were my favorite lol
The notes and delivery was freakin hilarious
Totally agree...all notes...but "Hi" may be fav...still laughing...
this sketch is the best SNL has seen in a while. whoever wrote this, A+
I don't know. Weed gummy was good.
This was hopefully not best Luke
@@JasonSmith-cz8yj it’s my perspective, i like the peppered-in jokes like bowen’s notes and the example ads
Dude this blows
@@darbs3168 oh no! i hope you get your time refunded :)
Beck and Regé-Jean play well off of each other 😂😂😂😂 this was funny!
SNL is cooking with straight fire these days. Glad they're back to greatness again. And during Covid no less. Very welcome and impressive.
The notes I can't 😵 😂 pure neutral chaos
“We’re losing millions” could mean they have millions to lose. I’d take a chance and work for Mix Martial Media.
Smart thinking.
Uh, no.
LOL! Like the Kruger Industrial Smoothing Corp. in Seinfeld.
This almost feels like a Kids in the Hall sketch. I can see Mark McKinney interviewing Dave Foley with Kevin MacDonald popping in with notes.
Yes! Kevin MacDonald saying "He took my hat!"...
oh my god that's PERFECT.
Very much so.
The note that just said "hi" got me good.
"He took my hat" 😂 dunno why i laughed so hard at that
Who wrote this??? Did they get a new writer?? I think this is my new fav sketch lol
I'm guessing Kyle and Beck, maybe Streeter as well.
Same!!!
For real, something was different about this whole episode. It's by far the best of the season and it's not even close. No real misses.

The exact words Fever Dream ran through my mind too!
Something about the writing just feels so different than most SNL sketches, but I'm LOVING it! Did Beck and Kyle write this or something?
This has the same energy that old spice, original orbit, and old Geico commercials had
Bowen Yang just makes every sketch funnier 😂
Who's style was this sketch? Normally you can guess the writer (especially with Mulaney because they're all gold) but I've never seen a sketch with this kind of pacing before
I'd guess Beck and Kyle. If you look up GoodNeighbourstuff, a lot of their old content is paced exactly like this.
It reminds me of the house hunters snl skit with Liev Schreiber. One of my favorites.
It reminds me of the kind of sketches you would get on Key & Peele
I agree, this was so nutty...and creative.. I feel like it was a team effort. I loved every second of it!
@@Kotor007 yes!!!

Why do you think your MMM material? Sorry, I stuttered. Material."
So dumb lmao
I can't even watch him breathe hard without thinking of Bridgerton
This is the greatest SNL sketch I have seen in a while.
Bowan was my fave❤ "Stop it, you'll kill each other!" Took me out and I cracked up at "he took my hat" too😂😂😂💯
Rege with an American accent hits different😍😍😍
Check him out in For the People
I've interviewed for plenty of marketing jobs, but this sketch is just too funny! I loved every second of it.
Everyone: *googles “does Netflix have porn now?”*
They did. Oh those were the days. A very brief period.
Castle vania season 3 has hentai
I mean, softcore? I thought it was appropriate the Bridgerton star was doing this lol...

I had to watch this on RUclips, and on my own. Normally I watch SNL with my dad but I knew I had to sit this one out😅
Stop it you'll kill each other! 😭
my fave line in this!!
The little notes Bowen brought in were brilliant in this
Bowen popping in with the little notes was perfect!☺️💖
Bowen = unsung hero
I was gonna say Bowen was the best part of the sketch for me! "Hi" and "stop stop you'll kill each other" both made me laugh
“Why do you think you’re MMM material, sorry I suttered” is gold
he took my hat :(
2:43 the way rege said "oh, it's nothing" so uncasually lmao then did his smouldery gaze
im dead
the noodles SENT ME
1:45 the little _"hi"_ was so good 😂

*"They have your daughter"*
-Exec just nods-
Like, what? 😂
I love that the Netflix sound is the mic being dropped
I also have a concealed carry pool noodle license, for situations just as this.
The fact that that would probably actually help save Netflix lmfao
Okay this is the best sketch I’ve seen in a while 😂 Instant classic!
Dude the funniest part was when he brought him the paper and it just said “hi” Hahaha idk why but lmao
Genius. More like this, please. I love it when SNL gets surreal!
THIS IS GOLD! I haven't laughed that hard in a while! Right on:)
Beck often talks like WASP coastal elite in SNL but the content of what he speaks is often like middle-schoolers
I feel Bowen had a part in writing this and I love it. He has been an amazing addition and I can’t wait to see more of him!
Should of been: LEGO... bet you can't just step on one.
Lego of my Lego!
"Bet you can't step on just one"
Should HAVE been. Unless you "of" a problem with correct grammar?
I love the increasing absurdity of this sketch. Bowen coming in with a note just to say hi & crying over his lost hat, lol
But I legit lost it at 'Stop it, you'll kill each other"!
I know we're talking about how funny he is but Jean Page's America accent is phenomenal.
Why did "he tookmy hat" crack me up so much hahahaha
This skit & Rege’s American accent are hilarious 😂
🤣🤣🤣the last part took me off guard.
Was the audience even there? This sketch was the funniest one in a long time!
This was insane and got better and better as it went
I just watched SNL on Hulu and this was my favorite sketch
1:18 that aged very well with today's events lmaoio
