Couple Goals - SNL

So f'n dark. 😅

[@counterspacecowboy]

This was a well written and composed sketch, dark and funny. Quinta is a great actress, she nailed it and was natural throughout. Throw the cue cards away, we have a professional on our hands.

[@brentsdadgets2658]

But Wally would be out of a job!

[@WoodenFilms]

This comment feels incredibly manufactured by a fake account made to promote SNL.

[@B-Moye]

Actually though, I kind of forgot they do read cue cards during this episode

[@Whyamiherel0l]

YES ! Everyone on SNL comes off like a comedian pretending to act ( which is a vibe in itself) but I prefer the real acting direction that she brought to all skits.

[@tanyadove8452]

Was it close? Was it? Lol

[@laalaa99stl]

Kenan just having a grand ol' time NOT being the gameshow emcee for a change 🙃

[@jacobgallant8902]

He killed it, his parents almost killed me 😂

[@Dulcimerist]

Kenan was even funnier as a contestant! Game show sketches seem to work better when the host is somewhat bland and the contestants are the weird and funny ones.

[@rooster5man]

@@Dulcimerist Also helps our game show host is one of the whitest men ever, on top of being the juggernaut of SNL comedy

Love this man

[@callmeshaggy5166]

Host. I've never once heard the likes of Trebeck and Sajak called a gameshow emcee.

[@kellygreengables3936]

James is doing a great job as game show host! Also, the "living across from each other during the pandemic and deciding to get married" line isn't being appreciated enough lol

[@winonafrog]

yes great role for him, love Bob Dabuilda 😅

[@OceanHedgehog]

James is a great and versatile addition to the cast. I think they're setting him up to take over Mikey's role once Mikey retires from SNL.

[@kellygreengables3936]

@@OceanHedgehog Maybe. I could see him playing a lot of Mikey's roles if Mikey decides to focus on writing instead of acting.

[@praisetobuddha2]

He’s very under appreciated

[@kathryn_dc]

Y'all might be too young, but he's doing a killer impression of Bob Eubanks, host of The Newlywed Game 1966 to 1988. 👏👏👏

[@EternalBlockBuster]

Lmao such a weirdly dark sketch. I lost it when Devon and Ego popped up😂😂😂

[@Dulcimerist]

Same! That put the sketch over the top for me, and I laughed really hard, too.

[@auroraseyets8516]

Yeah me too 😂

[@blacksheba41]

Now I see why that was Keenan's fear when I saw Devon spoon feeding Ego in the wheelchair..lol😅

Thank you. The writing really has been on an uptick this season.

[@americanskeptic1559]

This was genius. Love the fact they didn't explain it. Intelligent comedy at its finest

What would they have to explain? It's literally all right there in the sketch...

[@felleroerdere3351]

[@jvgreendarmok]

@@felleroerdere3351 I'm guessing that what @americanskeptic1559 means is that they didn't have Mikey Day show up and say "Huh. So you've seen your dad have to look after your mom all the time and you don't want to same to happen to you and your wife."

[@felleroerdere3351]

@@jvgreendarmok I mean...didn't they? They showed him feeding her in her wheelchair. They couldn't have been any clearer at all. There was no possible way they could've shoehorned in any line that would make it any clearer.

This is low-key one of my favorite sketches of all time. It strikes such a dark and ominous cord in such a benignly violating way that you can help but 😮😂😬🤣.

COMPLETELY agree. (The fact that my sixties-something wife just fell---again---day before yesterday is why I came back to rewatch this sketch. The darkness is comforting, somehow.)

This is wild because there’s been so many viral posts on Twitter lately about how men will leave their wives when they get sick or terminally ill and there’s a ton of research to back it up as well. I wonder if that’s where the writers got their inspiration… I did not expect it to go there! 😂

Good writing. Well done Quinta and Kenan.

Always up for a SNL game show parody. While I do miss Bill Hader's Vince Blight, it's good to see other cast members get to play the host.

So the incident with his parents was so traumatic that he'll do anything to make sure she doesn't get injured and have the same fate as his Dad 🤣🤣🤣

[@lesliebohn627]

I thought it was about the statistics that show that men are much more likely to leave their wives if the wife gets cancer & the anecdotal evidence in which men leave women who need any amount of caretaking or aren't able to basically be free maids & nannies.
