Fresh Takes - SNL

[@Raesplendent]

kyle's really good at those awkward characters that you feel a little bad for

[@RyanD808]

yes that is his specialty!

[@flamephlegm]

He really excels at playing with elocution

[@flamephlegm]

@Zero Cool underutilized at SNL, but if you know how channel his stuff doesn't completely fit their mold. It might be good for both of them try and adapt to each other, but in the end I feel like SNL isn't able to effectively utilize him outside of the digital shorts. These days they try not to let anyone monopolize that format, but when the show started in the 70's Lorne let Albert Brooks produce video stuff separate from the cast pretty much on his own.

Look up his character from “hello ladies” so awkward and hilarious

[@elreydelmundo1343]

I had to replay him getting denied like 5 times. His performance was HILARIOUS.

[@andrewthezeppo]

He is kind of a douche in real life

[@annabellenee3799]

“but if you do go anywhere, go as friends” he DID NOT have to call him out like that

We had plenty of teachers like this who would come into the playground and tax you for a cigarette if they caught you smoking haha

We had a coach that gave a great massage...And we had a smoking section where everyone drank...including the teachers.

Reminds me of “Breaking Bad” where the science teacher worked part time at a car wash.

[@aob6033]

[@neghiethervil5606]

We had a teacher like Mr. P. The cool ones always get fired. The cool ones and the pervs.

[@afisemenaborevlaka48]

You know who should get fired? The writers on SNL. The cast always tries so hard, but the vast majority of the jokes are so lame. It seems the cool comedians were let go.

[@knjjah2776]

yeah, theres often a thin line between cool and pervy when it comes to teachers

[@samuelrappaport6162]

@@afisemenaborevlaka48 dude fuck off this was funny not all of us have the same taste if you. Because it doesn't match your standards they should get fired

Tbh I had teacher he went out with one his 18 student and was arrest for it not being perv if billionaire does it I guess he’s awesome but teacher he’s a pervert

[@MikeTheD]

RichGang CEO don't think we decided it was " awesome" for billionaires to nail teenagers, think u missed a memo.

[@contrivedresident5917]

I love the subtle level of forced humor and overplayed charisma Don portrays to perfectly capture the feel of a teacher. Magnificent work, as always!

[@mz.phatbaldkat7839]

Mr. Paul cracked me up when he said..."I didn't give them the vodka, but I didn't take it away either."😂😂😂

They should do this sketch again. I love when the cast comes up with recurring characters

Oh. I thought that was Tim Meadows.

So it is Don Cheadle or someone else?

[@lizardmandx]

I thought it was Tim Meadows too don't feel bad but really its cuz of how crazy comfortable Cheadle is on here I didn't bother looking past the teacher disguise

[@tejaswoman]

As a teacher, I can tell you there is definitely always at least one teacher on staff in the habit of telling the students way too much about their co-workers. I couldn't believe how much some of my co-workers gossiped to the kids, just as I couldn't believe when I was a teenager some of the stuff my teachers would gossip to us about.
