Broadway's All-Star Super Bowl Halftime Spectacular - SNL

[@alexonline2340]

i love when they make fun of theatre/show business because theyre all actors that have certainly been through it and make fun of it so accurately

[@bentleyboy72]

how are they making fun of theater/show business?

[@cmcb09]

Teshura Rose it’s called a parody.

[@Bailey0316]

Have you seen the Crucible Cast Party sketch? It's so accurate it hurts lmao

[@stonewallperformance]

@@bentleyboy72 Definition of "Parody": an imitation of the style of a particular writer, artist, or genre with deliberate exaggeration for comic effect.

[@PeebeesPet]

For comic effect isn’t the same as making fun of. Definition: (Longman) ‘making fun of sb/sth’ To make unkind, insulting remarks about someone or something.

[@jskuddy]

Kenan singing "This is not what I wanted" gave me chills.

[@pm6129]

The dance leap off the stage after he sang “I hope I score a tackle for my team” 😂😂😂😂😂

[@conniemartin4878]

Taran sounds like every breathlessly earnest Sondheim hero ever. Fantastic.

[@AnnoyingAsianWitch]

He is musically trained!

[@jameskolar354]

I'm being an jerk about a 6 year old comment here, but...which Sondheim characters are breathlessly earnest? maybe Jack from Into the Woods?

[@ericaquint1895]

I love Melissa McCarthy’s song which is basically “throw the ball to someone who has the same color Jersey as you so you can win all the points”. This is my understanding of football

[@The_Infamous_Boogyman]

There is no understanding of football. It's idiotic, kills children, and overpays meatheads for running while holding a thing. It's not a ball. It's a .....weird, strange, thing ....,fk football

[@mikeymummy]

As a theater/choir kid I second this statement

[@mulletboater]

Within the premise universe: its admiral that, they wrote, rehearsed, and, made costumes on what was less than 3 hours notice.

[@kitteridgesimpson8144]

mullet and did tech!

[@roberthenleynola]

ADMIRAL???

[@koopatroopa187]

@@roberthenleynola Yes, admiral. As in stick close to your desks and never go to sea, and you all may be rulers of the queen's navy.

[@Fetidaf]

It's spelled admirable, admiral is high ranking Navy official lol But yes, I agree

Generally speaking...

Wish they made full versions of the songs. Heck I’d watch an actual Super Bowl: The Musical.

[@kimbali77]

This is probably one of my top five sketches of all time!

[@freegameskidsteens]

i wish this were real lmaoo

[@pallmall5495]

The players are in their costumes gets me everytime.

[@benm3983]

I watch this every year on the day of the Super Bowl and it gets funnier every time. Brilliant!

[@ABRASILERA17]

DAMN! That was an actual musical lmao. Like legit. BRING TARAN BACK

[@1970boobear]

Daniela Galdino-Jolly OMG YES

[@mochs62512]

Yes!!! Why did they ever get rid of Taran Killan and Jay Pharaoh???

[@TheBlarggle]

@@mochs62512 their contracts were up, and I think Taran wanted to branch out to more entertainment and Jay left because his ego was too large for the show(for real, they thought they didn't use him enough and he thought he was funnier than anyone else.)

[@mochs62512]

@@TheBlarggle oh really? I didnt know that.

[@CanItAlready]

TheBlarggle Taran actually didn't know he was going to be cut loose when he was.

[@vanyadolly]

The 'get the ball' song was brilliant. "You're tearing me apart!"

[@ThatButchBitch]

Lisa

[@lemonteacore]

I love the implication that they had this ready in case of emergencies, along with the costumes.

[@ams147]

this is probably one of my favorite all time skits. As a theater nerd surrounded by insane over the top sports fans-this spoke to me on a crazy level ha

[@jonajager635]

I just like sports, theatre and music, and this sketch and 'Embrace me' are my favorite sketches.

[@MrDino1953]

I think you mean “all-time favorite”.

[@jf5618]

Taran can sing! Always amazed how SNL people can sing as well as they do. Shit, even Kennan can sing alright

[@MyrtleP]

Oooo Eeeee What's up with that

[@xo.d_munii]

​@@MyrtleP waddup with that!

[@stephaniethesing5359]

So Aidey gets all costumed up for a mere 7 seconds of screen time 😁....."oh my....."

[@caton_andrew]

Has to be one of the best cold opens ever. Like, hot damn, the final chord they all sang was amazing!! It sounded like a real broadway musical! Coming from an official Theatre Kid, this was absolutely hilarious!

[@PhillyFrank1]

Holy cannoli, Kyle Mooney totally nails the late 20th-century stagey theater type. Kudos to the backup dancers, too! And to whomever came up with the name "Mama Pass."

[@rachelgeorge2098]

OMG I’m just now realizing she is not called Mama Cass (like the singer). Mama Pass is way better!

[@pmeagle]

4:42 "I guess the game is lost?" "All you need is womp womp!"

[@becks_r]

“Don’t you say it, womp womp”

[@mloftin6472]

I just left a strange turd in the toilet. I called it "Red Snake With Peanuts."

[@LinyraPia]

I fell asleep watching SNL videos last night (again) and my stupid laptop didn't shut down like it's supposed to (again) and the womp, womp woke me up four hours later and it was terrifying.

“Mark, how is your sex life?”

I would watch a Broadway halftime show

[@roberthenleynola]

It's been done ... a long time ago. An early 70's Super Bowl in New Orleans featured Carol Channing at half-time.

[@amymesserschmidt2044]

I would pay good money for it

[@kaileykrantz]

Bella Jones- Maybe a Broadway medley...

[@shawnuel]

I would scale the stadium from the outside, jump off the top, and plunge to my death if there was a Broadway halftime show while I was attending the game.

I would watch that Michael Strahan watch that Broadway halftime show.

Taran is incredible.

[@NasirNashawn1234]
