Kate McKinnon Dishes On The Infamous “SNL” After Parties

[@pascal9055]

My favorite SNL contributor. Her skits are great. And she's excellent at breaking the hosts.

[@juliemuir3271]

I love this woman. She is amazing.

[@Kreepyb5]

Me too 🎉🎉

[@codexcodex2026]

Aaaand fat! 😝

[@lenkacfk7155]

Absolutely! And I love that Young Kate somehow looks like Putin. 😂

[@Kreepyb5]

[@lisaschoenwetter5495]

🎉😂😊

[@falconeyes9668]

Alien Abduction is top 5 SNL skits of all time. She had Ryan Gosling almost in tears laughing breaking character from the start.

[@user-mw3mb2uv8n]

Great skit!

[@moniqueengleman873]

That is my favorite too. But I love everything she does.

[@rebeccaelliot6586]

I have this dream that someday Kate McKinnon is awarded the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor and the entire audience at the Kennedy Center has to watch awkwardly while one of the alien abduction skits is screened.

[@juliaconnell]

I agree - and I know the one you mean. each & every "Close Encounter" skit is absolutely hilarious. (is it a "skit" if there is more than one? 🤔🤨🦊 - I would have thought 'recurring sketch' is more accurate - ) wow 8 times (4 alien encounters, plus time travel, ghost, near death & santa) oh a bit of trivia - "No SNL Host Has Survived Kate McKinnon’s ‘Paranormal Encounter’ Sketch Without Breaking" (info from the SNL fandom site)

[@dumfries359]

A real actor does not break character Sir

[@Peter-oh3hc]

The two beats it takes for cobert to process how funny “I summered in upstate New York” is, cracks me up

[@Stefffie90]

please explain to foreigner

[@Peter-oh3hc]

@@Stefffie90 there are rich communities and places that people of money will spend the summer in “we summer in the hamptons (wealthy town in Long Island New York). Upstate New York is beautiful, but not fancy. Where you live switch “we summer in (name of fancy town) with we summer in (nice, but average town).

[@christianadavis5789]

I’ve been to The Colbert Show and Kate is not overreacting. It is FREEEZING in that theater. I didn’t bring a jacket and I regretted that decision every minute. The energy in there is hot though! Kept me warm in spirit.

[@kilmer009]

It's funny because I immediately thought she was coked up and DIED when Colbert called her out on it. But I guess that might have been a wrong assumption. Or like Colbert said; 'Why not both?' 😆

[@SuperAngela40]

I love her! My teen is convinced she will do well attracting potential partners through her talent at making graphs and charts so I will have to show her Kate saying the same sort of thing . We are both huge fans of Kate!

[@cja4793]

Your teen is right! Once I got over myself and leaned into my nerdy skills in my 20s, THATS when I learned I had rizz all along.

[@macareuxmoine]

So right! With such special traits you better put out the right tentacles to find someone that appreciates your specialness!

[@Gettingbento]

Oh what a surprise Kate McKinnon got Stephen Colbert to break. Sooo I laughed a lot thank you both.

[@gnosis40]

Kate is the GOAT! 🤩🥰

[@stumack9755]

smells like 1

[@FrankNemeth-v1g]

Kate you're a frickin riot

[@juliaconnell]

Kate is one of my most favourite people (along with Stephen) - she's such a joy & delight and tremendously effortlessly hilarious.

[@georget13]

How can you *not* love Kate McKinnon?

[@likebot.]

Let's start on the easier questions like what is dark matter and solving mid-East peace.

[@scifiknut]

The way she "killed" Ryan Gosling in that SNL skit was impressive. And it was far more awkward than funny 😄.

[@amyreynolds3619]

​@@likebot.😮. Taking the low bar your thing?

[@Jacqueline2279]

I just love her!

[@MothGirl007]

She's awesome.

[@juliemuir3271]

People like her are life saving. They give us the best medison. The medison that heals the soul. Laughter. And she is so good at it.

[@longlivedemocracy756]

I don’t believe I have ever laughed this much as he interviewed one of his guests. Kate is so delightful! I do believe she is also a unicorn. Can’t wait to see what she does next!

[@dennismukoyatv]

Kate McKinnon is great. My favourite skit is when she played former US AG Jeff Sessions on SNL.

[@wyskass861]

The idea to play him as a mischievous elf was gold.

[@callmeshaggy5166]

"That's m'tail 🐀"

[@Moluccan56]

How she got her mouth to stay like that was something else!

[@Tarlondwen]

Her Rudy Giuliani got more and more unhinged with each performance and it was great

[@cynthiacote3596]

Her energy is unmatched. The cut to the audience shows how much she can rile up a crowd.

[@brownkemosabe]

Kate is a Movement. She's a Mood. SHE'S IT!

[@sratus]

How does a person not cringe themselves into dust after writing a comment like that.

[@ChipCain]

One of the my saddest ever to leave SNL. I miss her verily.

[@moraggilad847]

It has not been the same since she left

[@juliaconnell]

agreed - however there is some consolation that we have other hmm avenues? venues? - places ? to appreciate her. she was sheer perfection as Weird Barbie

[@EricaGamet]

Verily? Okay... you're trying to hook up, right? Somehow I think Kate would like that vibe 🤣

She is a legend in her own time. Like Betty White, Carol Burnette, and Lucille Ball.

[@killqueen1]

I can see that ❤

[@lis2088]

😂

[@SELAHPAUSE]

Naw she should not be mention with those ladies but Kate is funny

[@Freedbird]

Craig Ferguson and Kate would be off the charts !

[@sratus]

Hmm dunno, Craig Ferguson's thing was more being a bit sleazy to female guests in short skirts. A weird show.

[@suzannezoubeck5216]

Love me some Kate. Putting her book on my list to read (though someone mentioned the audiobook which she does...may be my first audiobook). Just saw she did an audiobook called Head's Will Roll that sounds amazing by the look of the cast...need to hear that. From what I read, in my book she's just all 'round way cool (funny, smart, interested in carpentry and growing food...you go girl!). And as someone else mentioned, I would have gotten her a blanket. ❤☮🌎

[@myjewelry4u]

She’s the best ❤

[@nunessilva2162]

She's just pure chaos

[@bwenluck9812]

What's your definition of chaos? 😂

Listen to the audiobook !!! So goooood ❤️

[@CarolineGuntur]

"I summered in upstate New York." OMG, she's the best.

[@l2etranger]

But look at you now, keeping us sane. Plus the line up and with Kate from snl, nothing to envy. ❤😂😎

[@brownfox4995]

She is actually very pretty she is just known for making great silly faces.

[@kosewa1]

Her alien abduction skits on SNL is the best thing on SNL. Every single guest cracked and she loved it!!

[@timothyward6644]

I am so happy the aliens brought her back. 😂

[@jakenavatka9431]

As a resident of "Upstate" New York, it's very cool to hear that Kate McKinnon spent summers up in my region of the country.

[@EricaGamet]

I think that's where she is living now. I know she is "living on the land" since leaving SNL. She is living her best damn life!

[@lunhil12]

She's hilarious, a comic by nature.

[@stephaniethomas2223]

GIVE HER A NIGHT SHOW, PLEASE😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 AND ROY WOOD

[@aaronsantos5727]

I want a project that features Kate McKinnon and Fred Armison. They’re both just so chaotic and live in the bit. Maybe a movie, but if they did a travel show it might make me question my sense of reality (in a good way).

[@karenritcheydamon8009]

[@MamboKing215]

She & I are three days apart; couldn't be happier.

[@Kitters8112]

I love how Stephen Colbert always watches his guests as they are walking up the steps and offers his hand to assist, whether they need it or not. Goes to show what a polite and caring person he is.

[@prescriptionpete866]

[@emmgeevideo]

One of our best comics... So creative. She, like, says "like" too much though...

I remember being in kindergarten or 1st grade and discovering that if you mixed paint with noxema, it would give the colors a metallic shiny look that I thought was the coolest thing in the world. I thought I was brilliant for making this discovery and was very disappointed my parents didn't feel the same way. 😅😂🤣

[@EricaGamet]

Whaaaaaat? I will have to try this. I think it sounds pretty dang cool!

[@the-gadgeteer]

OMG, I did some of the same stuff she did as a kid. Making stuff with motors and magnets. It didn't help me hook up either. I just had a note on my report card that said "Julie continues to bring little toys to trade with the boys". Like that was a bad thing ;o)

[@rachg82]

I first discovered Kate back when she appeared on the AfterEllen vlog Brunch with Bridget in '08, during her days on The Big Gay Sketch Show. I'm pretty sure it's probably still available to watch on KZbin, and worth it to hear her talk about her crush on Gillian Anderson, lol. It's been so great to see her career evolve over the years. She is so talented and totally deserves it.

[@EricaGamet]

Season 1 used to be available to buy on iTunes and I'm pretty sure there are some crappy recordings floating around YT. I got to meet and hang out with Julie from BGSS a couple years back. I restrained myself and didn't ask about Kate haha! Have you heard Kate tell the story of how G Anderson found out who Kate was? (by finding the video of her talking to the camera about how much she loved Gillian!). She was so good on BGSS... the others must have been thinking, "Who IS this 22 year old with perfect comedic timing?"

[@adiakiyes6354]

Omg I just knew her last night, I'd watched her movie, " the spy who dumped me," with Mila Kunis. Oh my, she's incredibly amazing and funny.

[@Danmark35]

She is just brilliant...
