It was good. The best thing I’ve ever seen Kate perform

[@mangualc]

I swear I thought it was really her just playing an exaggerated version of herself lol

[@eshim3961]

The fact that Will Ferrell always looks like he's having an absence seizure at the beginning of these sketches still breaks me up to this day.

[@hoss-lk4bg]

do what

[@cagneybillingsley2165]

anyone notice will ferrell's finger's bruised after the fall? i don't think that was part of the script

[@guymorris6596]

That's the MK ULTRA programming he's been subjected to by his US government owners. That's his programming files switching so he's able to get into character for the sketches he's assigned, by his handlers, to perform.

[@CourtneyLachiver]

That part always kills me.

[@ericday4505]

Will is about as funny as it gets, dude is great at physical comedy.

[@ludo3375]

I watch this periodically. When I first saw this as a teenager I cried laughing. I didn't even understand what show they were parodying. I just laughed at Farrell's performance. After I got older and saw inside the actors studio it made me laugh even more

[@rynostewie]

RIP James Lipton. You’ll live on in our hearts and minds. Even though this was a parody about you, it was done with love.

[@vidfather]

Hahaha that massive stack of cue cards.

I think Kate absolutely nailed the Drew impersonation. 5:33 “You . . . smell like flowers (giggle)” 😂

"Nor they, you." is an invaluable phrase in more conversations than I could've possibly imagined.

[@brycekeyes6787]

This is so much better than pretty much any other sketch in the last 15 years

[@diegolopezlira3267]

I clicked to see the great impression Will Ferrell of James Lipton but I was gladly surprised by the fantastic impression Kate Hudson gave as Drew Barrymore. They were both great.

[@NoellaScott]

The enormous pile of cards has made me instantly laugh for 22 years 😂😂😂

Crazy to think how prolific Will Ferrell was on SNL. Not just the sketches he wrote that showcased his talents, but also how he found ways to highlight the comedic strength of his co-stars.

I just don't see Kate on screen as much but she really is good, your right.

[@PlumbPitiful]

Too be blunt, Kate Hudsons boobs are not that big. Not even close. So if that's really her then the boobs...including the nipples....are fake. (I'm still not altogether convinced that's not really Drew Barrymore!)

[@DiscoPornoSatan]

lmao that pile of cards is the best thing ever !

[@vijeshnair1771]

Jokes apart it shows how much Mr Lipton researched in his guests ...

[@TRJ2241987]

I remember watching this live, I was 13 years old, already aware of Actors Studio by that point. The part where James Lipton begins laughing too hard and rocks his chair backwards to the point where it causes him to tumble out and onto his head was one of the funniest things I had ever seen at that point, in a time before Adult Swim, back in the days when you actually watched SNL at 1 AM on the East Coast, there was just something so absurd about that and it pretty much cemented Will Ferrell as brilliant for me on the spot

[@Momof3boys757]

Rip James Lipton :( came here after i heard he passed. This was the funniest clip to me.

[@robdilauro4344]
