Jokes Seth Can't Tell: Special 50th Edition

[@KyleRayner12]

"I cannot stress enough that that's not what's on the card." God, I love Amber.

[@Omni0404]

That wasn't her first margarita 😛

[@ConstantChaos1]

As opposed to Jenny who is like "naw he's never seen them" the angel and devil or one who only tells the truth the other only lies vibes

[@kieranhair37]

I thought this bit was obviously planned and didn't love it as much as a lot of people. But that one line SENT me. So perfect.

[@dietotaku]

@@kieranhair37 i mean yeah it was obviously planned, that doesn't mean seth actually got to see the jokes beforehand. weekend update does this sort of thing every year.

[@lenkacfk7155]

[@Zimani08]

“Why did you shrug?” Seth’s panicked face while drawing the cue card in the air “it said ‘shrug’ on the card!” was hilarious!!!

Amazing. No notes. Seth's panic was palpable and the Jackals will feed on that like the energy vampires we are for weeks to come. 11/10

[@vadimastprojects8770]

"Panic"? He enjoyed it very much! It's called "acting".

Please give these three an award ceremony to host - the potential for chaos would be amazing

[@MariaVosa]

Gods YES! Amber and Jenny must host the Emmys!! And sneak in a fake award for Corrections to mess with Seth 😄

[@johnobrien2373]

This kind of chaos deserves the Oscars. You know, since Will Smith won't be allowed back for a while!

[@paulvamos7319]

​@@johnobrien2373You actually think they can keep Mr. Smith away when he practically owns the award center! 😂 He's been rubbing elbows with the super rich and powerful for decades and doesn't care what us small fry think! They tried to cancel him and he went to Oprah, he is now on her OWN! 😂🤣🍻😎🤘

Happy 50th anniversary. Also Seth is a great sport.

[@arthurmartin4616]

This segment is 50 years old?

[@kieranhair37]

@@arthurmartin4616 Of course it's not. They have no idea what an anniversary is. They probably also didn't get that "we wrote a whole script for nothing" was basically a summary of the writers' strike.

Amber and Jenny torturing Seth like this is the BEST, especially for the reactions it got from him. Well done, ladies! Amber, that margarita was well deserved 🥂

My favorite segment ever has now hit 50. So proud of the ingenuity and brilliance that they’ve created over the years. So glad that Jenny and Amber could bless us with this for all these years.

Hilariously uncomfortable and wholesome at the same time. The trust and friendship shines through between the 3 of them.

[@shelleymaclean3181]

My cheeks hurt from smiling through that. I **love** the chemistry the three of you have, and how absolutely tickled they were with themselves! "Real champagne to go with your REAL discomfort" 😂😂😂

[@LaurenceWillis]

They did Seth dirty, I loved every minute of it.

[@KazKcatta]

I can’t even begin to express how much joy this show brings me. I had a smile on a face for a solid 17 minutes (I watched it twice in a row)

[@birbluv9595]

Only Seth could do this. He’s perfect in this “uncomfortable” environment. And the two writers are terrific. I’ve been a big Amber fan since i first saw her on the show.

[@AAZEDLARC]

Amber's two books written with her sister are exceptional! Well worth checking out :)

[@birbluv9595]

@@AAZEDLARC thanks! I didn’t know about these books, but will look for them!

[@AnimefortheLazyman]

I love this bit, but it could be funnier if they did it like Michael Che does it to Colin Jost on SNL: little to no reaction. That lets the horror sink into the audience

There's that moment of panic in Seth's eyes right before they tell him the twist. That's when he figured it out and that first drink was, "I'm going to need this." If this was faked Seth is actually one of the best actors in the world.

[@robguttridge6591]

The ladies are resplendent. Costume budget well spent.

I’m sure work environments in this business can be utterly stressful, but I don’t find it hard to believe that most of these writers and staff are thoroughly enjoying their jobs - and that really shines through.

[@YouMakeItHappen]

Yea, like can someone go to HR for inappropriate comments?

[@nikobatallones]

I doubt it -- there's always the fear of a Surprise Inspection.

That’s not acting she’s doing there.

My husband had me back it up to rewatch when Amber and Jenny first came out. He wanted me to see how much Seth's posture looks just like his Dad when his Dad's on the show! After all the conversations on Family Trips and Strike Force Five where Seth has shared about how much he's much like his dad, it's been fun to see it show up in ways we hadn't noticed before. So excited for the family episode in two days. We love you Larry!
