Dateline: The Mystery of the Chopped Up Guy - SNL

Keith Morrison (Bill Hader) gets a little too much pleasure investigating a brutal murder in The Mystery of the Chopped Up Guy, which isn't really a mystery since the killer confessed, but the show needs to fill an hour. [Season 37, 2011]

[@kevinr.3542]

This is spot on. Keith Morrison gives off the strangest vibe. Hardest thing to explain or impersonate. And that's why Bill is genius. The last joke about him seeing a drowned clown as a child got the weirdest reaction. Audience was either too creeped out or too confused. But it's actually a pretty brilliantly hillarious and almost plausable explanation of Keith Morrisons odd creepy demeanor on that show.

[@justathoughtmyfriend1403]

The floating clown was an interesting take because he does do this weird lingering cliffhanger final words in the show.

[@WillowJordan1979]

I thought it was a reference to "It", where the creepy clown says "We all float down here".

Bill Hader talking about a floating clown 8 years before It Chapter 2?

[@nikinikolov6570]

Em you do realise that first of all. There was an IT movie from the 90ties. Both current day and previous IT are adaptations of books, written in the 80ties. Ignorance is a virtue I suppose.

[@MrWhitesell985]

niki nikolov I believe he is just referencing the fact that Bill Hader was in that film

[@rosebudtig3979]

He's probably 19 this one lol

"Oooooohhh, was it Wilson the Volleyball? No, it was an arm. 'Aaaaahhhh, did he slap you five?"

[@Xush11kkkk]

"I must paint you ..." :D

[@arcticridge]

you're the reason cavemen drew paintings on walls!

[@AceNinja2112]

Bill needs to throw in a "Kinky!" when interviewing someone!

[@elcaminosoldier1]

"I must paint you" is a super underrated line

[@MitchellWiggs]

Fun fact, Bill's portraying a host who is actually Matthew Perry's stepdad in real life.

[@dreamquesttv]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH! That's terrible!

[@LisaMaryification]

What?! Oh my!

[@mdflorida1233]

There are like 10 memes alone in this, just from Bill Hader's facial expressions.

[@theultimatereductionist7592]

LOL!! True!

I just showed mom this skit while she was watching the real dateline, of course during a commercial break..,she was excited and said yes, dateline...i laughed and said hold your horses...its going to get 🤣 funny...she loved it! She said how perfectly he did the character. I also love when they set him up to meet the host of the show.😂

[@renegadetherapper]

“We only have 1 photo to use - here it is, floating downward.” That is such an underrated joke in this skit. Lmao

[@marcusfarcus]

Diego said he was having an affair with Elroy’s beautiful wife, Martha. But I met Martha and _“beautiful”_ should have sarcastic quotes around it. Best line ever! 😂

[@MrStensnask]

Steve Buscemi gettin' way too little love here in the comments. He was funny too! I gotcha, Steve.

[@theultimatereductionist7592]

Buscemi's the BOSS!! Love that guy.

[@Ghoopty]

This really is one of the best SNL sketches of the 21st century. And Taran Killam doesn’t get enough credit in general. He’s so spot on & diverse.

[@LisaMaryification]

I usually don't get most SNL sketches and am left wondering if my sense of humour is 'off', but I'm glad to see this jives with everyone else here.

[@guypeate3628]

Bill Hader plays such hilarious characters, he always does it so well and he never fails to upset/disappoint me
