I came here to finally have explained what I watched.

[@franciet]

Wow! You waited so long!

[@seamslatasha3598]

😂 and it still makes no sense.

[@diddodi]

@@franciet I 've Just discovered that sketch and now I am in love with It !!!!!!

[@marqueshawalker2111]

​@@seamslatasha3598EXACTLY 😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤

[@marqueshawalker2111]

But I honestly am more Confused!❤😂😂😂😂

[@cricketbuncoot3857]

“A character doesn’t disappear. It erodes.” 😄

[@ashamedrepublican1224]

Haha reminds me of Robert Downey Jr in Tropic Thunder. "I'm a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude" but in real life he was a dude playing a dude playing a dude disguised as another dude. One more level of dude. So playing they many characters.... Do they erode one by one or all at once? Ha

[@alphabrainwave]

One of the ways in which a character is like a beautiful beach. The other way is that you find little grains in odd places for a very long time.

[@kengeorgejones6855]

"not fake laughing in order to bring it home." Jason is not holding back there. (he looks great in this video by the way)

[@Frickstar66]

I love that Will answered the Q&A's genuinely and in character, he seems like a really cool guy.

[@maryhead2029]

4:03 starts one of the best off-the-cuff exchanges. Will and Jason just nail the characters. “As a showering man…” I died!

[@leonorlps9967]

Will looks strangely good with that makeup

[@82jp]

I was thinking the same. He doesn't normally wear makeup so I don't think of it as looking good on him, haha.

[@lnfreeman]

Everyone looks good in well-done makeup

[@sharonfieldstone]

Those audience questions were so fucking funny. Respect

[@peterp2626]

Filmed 13 May 2014 You're Welcome.

[@chantalbellefeuille4310]

I was about to say... Seth looks really young here

[@g.cosper8306]

Thank you !

[@pakalupapito1528]

I never knew Seth had legs.

[@StylistFia127]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@brassholio]

Please get Bill Hader on

[@jordanweimer788]

Your choice to draw this out as long as possible is amazing hahahah

[@pearlejam7115]

These 2nd chance theatres bits are hilarious, and thank you for the Q & A that I've never seen! Shoutout to Sorrell Booke

[@lautjeclause2069]

So, what about Rooftop?! We've been waiting for years Seth, give the sketch a chance!

[@bernlin2000]

9:09 What an amazing question, give this woman an award XD

[@mariantopham6907]

I love Will in his eyeshadow ❤

[@diddodi]

i love Will. period! ❤

[@liloa03]

what a great audience omfg

[@dudeist_priest]

I love these gentlemen.

[@WillBravoNotEvil]

Having worn a long beard for years, this gives me hope for my heretofore undisclosed passion project, "Betheford B. Hayes, Victorian Bearded-Lady President" and I will fight anyone who calls it a circus act.

[@franciet]

Bravo, Mr. Bravo. May I acquire a ticket for the front row?

[@jaibhimadevi5805]

*Jennjamin.. ON ICE!* Brought to you by Bauer.

[@yunshuli6058]

Since this video hasn’t been uploaded until six years later, could I see the juggling flyer Q&A this year please?

[@sabrinarene6909]

Everyone in the audience was gorgeous and so funny!

[@staggslottie]

The fact they took even the debrief and Q&A so seriously for their characters speaks volumes to the comedic mastery that these men have achieved. I feel like this decade of SNL actors will be the ones I admire the most in my lifetime ❤

[@nessa-marks]

second chance theater has really been three sudeikis and two samberg’s.

[@ForThePool]

Why in God's name was this never uploaded until now??

[@ashamedrepublican1224]

Seriously, the actual skit is from 5 years ago

[@ForThePool]

@Richie Rich I mean this Q&A not the sketch

[@Qermaq]

@@ForThePool I think there was an edited version that went up.

[@WillBravoNotEvil]

Ashamed Republican If true, that'd make it 50X funnier. Nonsequitur-based humor is hard. Even harder when hoi polloi has been preconditioned to laugh at comedy based on lying to kids that you ate their Halloween candy. But as a Republican, I'm sure you're comfortable with "let them eat cake" or a selfishness-in-general approach, right? Also hard: irony. See if you can spot any in my reply, here. 😎

[@maazkalim]

Well.. If that's indeed true. For whatsoever it's worth: If not for the ongoing pandemic.. ...They would've just kept it there on the geo-restricted NBC.com.

[@Aigoth]

This was better than the sketch

[@allhailme8457]

This was awesome!

[@meghandelavan5434]

I hope there’s more q and a’s. It’d personally be interesting to know for this one what other historical figures they could try to pick up and be repulsed by. It’d be revolutionary.

[@NewMessage]

James Lipton would be proud.

[@franciet]

Or, maybe he’s glad he’s dead?

[@PartlySunny74]

Alastair Cooke.

[@calebburns8894]

Was Vanessa and Fred’s characters being named Tina and Jeff a reference to Tina Fey and her husband Jeff Richmond?

[@Knulppage]

From the vault!

[@marqueshawalker2111]

At this point Im convinced that everyone, everyone @30 Rock are either psych patients, stoners, and or both!, Im talking security gaurds, cafeteria ladies, janitors, Lorne, EVERYONE!!!😂😂❤

[@82jp]

Table read has been filmed at least once. There is a documentary here on yt that shows it...

[@diddodi]

Will Forte Is not only a comic Genius, but Also so cool and awesome! (It Is the First Time in my Life when i noti e a man for his talent waay before to notice that he Is actually handsome! oh ok maybe bcs Will Forte treated all of US with all his super awkard charachters! 😂

[@larryyz_hideaway]

wait wait wait wait wait wait WAIT there's a MACGRUBER PANEL??

[@johnjhill3]

What better way to fritter away the dwindling moments of one's life than on an expository of material not in evidence?

[@franciet]

Said like a scholar? Or a fan of SN? Or nay, shall I saw both? Yes, I shall. Both.

[@elly6922]

Late Night staff, you may want to put the original air date in the video title or a card at the beginning of the video so people don't freak out about social distancing with every post.

[@ashamedrepublican1224]

Hahaha... You're right. at first I kept thinking, "hey they aren't 6ft apart! Wtf" But then i looked up #secondchancetheatre and found the skit they're talking about, and its from 5 years ago... So I'm assuming thats when this is from too

[@elly6922]

@@ashamedrepublican1224 Yeah and it's his original set. His desk used to be on a platform that they moved around if I remember right. This is when he still did a monologue standing up which was weird. Not bad just weird. Ha!

[@elly6922]

Yes and obviously I'm dedicated since I knew about his orginal set. I just gave a suggestion based on other comments. I've been watching since day 1.

[@franciet]

Everything is is going to be alright.

[@diddodi]

Sorry but social distance Is NOT the "normal Life. please stay stronger and don't make this virus our Forever Life..

[@taylorbasford4542]

I had a dream... as a young child.. that i found the lipstick belonging to benjiman franklin in my houses floorboords and we had to report it to the authorities because of "Lead" poisoning. Im a little freaked out by this

[@APisceanSlant]

10:42 WHO IS THIS SMOKESHOW?!?!? Mah Gawd...😍

[@blackscreenstories3704]

if they ever make a movie about George Carlin they better cast Will Forte as George

[@lisaoldwithsomanywhys5487]

when did this originally air?

[@shayboogie3682]

May 2014 ... near the date

[@ashamedrepublican1224]

I just watched the Jennjamin Franklin skit. It was from 5 years ago. It's pretty funny/pretty fucking uncomfortable

[@crimps321]

how do they not break. how.

[@diddodi]

because they are too good. We are now watch in searchinf for the breaks because nowadays comedian aren't good enough.and Will Forte never breaks. Never.

[@thebadger7198]

Don’t people read, listen, or pay attention anymore? This is an old cut clip that didn’t air. That’s why it called second chance theatre. It gonna be for the rest of the week because Seth’s team need a break. Common people.

[@NewMessage]

The original sketch: /watch?v=ylu5amvSvww

[@ashamedrepublican1224]

More people need to see the original... I started watching this, had no idea wtf they were talking about, then looked the original. It's pretty funny/horrifying

[@FilmArtPhoto]

Thanks! Man, that was weird... :p

[@babetravelling]

Does he have makeup on his eyelid?

[@BlessedToBeSaved333]

Both of them!

[@torihall2972]

And looks like hes wearing lipstick as well

[@babetravelling]

Tori Hall I think all guys usually wear powder and lipstick during shows...

[@robertodelosangeles1310]

It’s called eye shadow

[@WillBravoNotEvil]

Babetravelling The makeup was discussed at length, so you're just jerking us around or trolling. Or mentally defective - I _always_ forget that that's an option! 😊

[@dpken11]

I would just like to say the Burmese didn’t understand and rushed off before Fred.

Am I actually first? Crazy.

You were. 2nd is best.

[@PopeLando]

@@dudeist_priest Gold is best!

[@westtech001]

I'm concerned, not so much that these children will have been traumatised by the unicorn suicide cult, but that they've seen so many sketches like this that 'Unicorn Suicide Cult' won't come out until the second year of therapy...

[@GoodJuju.8D]

JennJamin will not be allowed in certain states now. 😡 So sorry Mr Forte. 😔

[@therealunicornselene]

Will forte here was better than jennjamin

[@kitkatratat]

Did this happen around the time of Jason's and Olivia's split? He looks so thin here. :( But so dashing

[@sharonfieldstone]

Nah, this was filmed years ago. It was just uploaded a few years after

[@deborah3250]

Love Seth, but not an Armisen fan.
