Guest Performance: Sam Kinison 1 - Saturday Night Live

[@itsnodawayitustabe5654]

The Hero We Need in these dark times

[@sartainja]

Amen.

[@randymillhouse791]

No, we need prosecutors to jail Trump and his entire family.

[@komicsreviewer8505]

He was a Homophobe dude.

[@FlyingV1998]

He's what heavy metal and death metal needed for a singer in the early 90s. His AAH scream would've been good for a heavy metal band. Then he did a growl scream towards the middle of the video. He could've used that for a death metal side project. RIP Sam

[@CHV1257]

I met him once in Laughlin Nevada, Great guy funny as hell

[@CrisisGuildWOW]

He never made it. DIed on 40 on the way.

[@thatssomething1]

I think this Fall I'm gonna go for the full Kinison wardrobe look 😆

[@hudsonhawk0016]

Trenchcoat, beret, and Chuck Taylors.

[@itiswhatitaintanditaintwha1427]

Go for it!

[@MissSunny1966]

Do It!

[@debfortier-arszyla7394]

😂🤣😂🤣

[@adamhawn2523]

Your wife took it all too 😆

[@arnoldomartinez1245]

Glad a found a new clip. RIP SAM.

[@krismurphy7711]

Me too. Never seen it. Need to find MORE A AAAAAGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@michaelvega6646]

There will never be a comedian like Screamin' Sam kinison again

[@therealtampadude9175]

Nope. He was truly one of a kind. Gone way too soon.

[@DannyD714]

we lost sam 30 years ago today,and the world hasn't been the same since.

[@jafrasar1]

Your got that right. Miss him greatly..

[@sartainja]

Man, I remember like that day just like it was yesterday. The day the comedy stopped.

[@robertkaplan3324]

Do you have any idea how great that was? Classic Legendary

[@relentlessflashbackin]

Gosh, I miss him!

[@joecopeland4586]

He was fantastic in " Back to School " with Rodney Dangerfield . A true classic

[@Merylstreep1949]

Ah , Sam, John Belushi, John Candy, George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Chris Farley.....hope they are all at peace now

[@mikehersh6192]

It got better Huh. Miss him

[@user-sc1qi3ce7j]

The best!!

[@sammyb1001]

How about Gilda Radner, Jan Hooks, Joan Rivers!!!!

[@beastman1083]

I agree! I just hope that there's a special VIP club where they are all there so I can laugh hearing their cracks on humans and the universe as a whole! Lets include the other guys like Benny Hill, Bob Newhart, Lucy & Desi, Carol Burnett & crew, and Bill Cosby, apart from his faults, and countless others that are fondly remembered. After this life I need to laugh-up a storm. Humans' need a great Yuk it up at their selves.

[@charlier4287]

We don't really die so shut the fuck up 😂😂🤣

[@lancecampbell4323]

The audience reaction was “what am I seeing here?”

[@42.0fmthefever5]

The audience is watching a *legend* in the making

[@sartainja]

Exactly.

[@sampats89]

I don't even rate kinison but that disciples joke slayed me. Brilliant

[@adamhawn2523]

Might be the best closing joke ever 🤣

[@kevinbuja4373]

“Anybody here in love? Can’t be married!”

[@tombrown8829]

Tulsa has spawned so many entertainers. I'm so lucky to be born here and lived here all my life and to be present when the " Tulsa sound" was born. And to meet Leon Russell.

[@Morgil27]

Can you tell he used to be a preacher before breaking into comedy?

[@tramainecampbell591]

He laughed in his face his laugh cracked me up

[@isogenect3288]

Same clown laugh much

[@Jacksmusicshack]

ARE U IN LOVE? AHAHAHA 🤣

[@bENOFFICIALMASSIVE]

He's awesome

[@xodusattack]

That last joke was very close to a bit bill hicks use to do. About how all good people get shot, but Reagan was wounded etc... but never died. Wonder who did it first. I’m pretty sure this Sam footage is older than any hicks version I have heard or seen. Either way, both were brilliant comedians.

[@scothammond5736]

Sam probably did it first, considering Bill Hicks was a teenager when he started hanging out with Sam and Brother Bill Kinison.

[@jasonsullivan9714]

Sam Kinison is a Comedy god

[@phantasmtheater6015]

KZbin: "Video Will Play After Ad"....Me: "Good! That's when I'll turn the sound back on!"

[@HailAnts]

For those of you praising that Reagan joke, Sam was just flowing with the times. As he developed as a comedian it became pretty clear he was not a liberal. Which is why I so wish he had lived. The things he would had said about 9/11 alone would have been awesome. Forget about political correctness and being woke.. 😱

[@herculesmwp7983]

I think Sam is used to better crowds 😆

[@johncase2408]

What a dead crowd

[@OMGITSME12346]

It’s Saturday night live that had no idea what they were experiencing

[@missmoxie9188]

No one: Literally no one: Sam Kinison: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[@letmetellyalilstory9122]

Damn, I can really see the influence he had on Bill Hicks here!

[@a2ndopynyn]

Bigtime. Bill straight up took the "Reagan - wounded" bit from Sam.

[@billyshepard5514]

Search the article ‘Bill Hicks was a bit misogynist’ - young comics reassess the standup legend

[@a2ndopynyn]

@@billyshepard5514 No thanks. Wokesters ruin everything. no need to seek out their nonsense.

[@lawannacollins4892]

@@billyshepard5514 search Bill Hicks is Alex Jones.....Life is stranger than fiction.

[@vardellsfolly5200]

He is not the same without foul language..!

[@jaydoubleu3419]

i really miss these jokes and Sam Kinison

[@JeffLB]

No fucking shit

[@justinbrockshus8483]

Brilliance. 🙂 ❤

[@rzz9594]

Really ahead of people’s comprehension. If you listen some of his jokes are so subtle besides the screaming in your face stuff . Damm Samm was the Man .

[@Abigail_Issler]

I wasn't expecting to like this. But my goodness this got me laughing SO MUCH!!

[@ShmuckOnWheels]

Why would you watch someone like Sam Kinison if you weren't expecting to like the performance? Had you even heard of him before? Your post makes no sense.

[@Abigail_Issler]

No I’ve never heard of him before. Not him in particular but SNL isn’t usually my sort of humor, but I’m glad I gave this one a shot! 😁

[@ShmuckOnWheels]

@@Abigail_Issler Theres a hilarious clip of him at Rodney Dangerfield''s club in the mid 80s. Its on here. The thumbnail is of Sam getting ready to scream into the mic.

[@ShmuckOnWheels]

[@shutterbug_713]

I laugh when he yells!

[@sadakichihartmann1827]

Bill Hicks ripped him off wtf!!

[@Jerry_Dungarees_son]

They were both good mates until they had a falling out. Would often get f**ked up on drugs talking about there dissatisfaction with religion and politics. So it's not surprising you can see similarities between their acts.

[@jet07son]

😂god hes WAS funny 😂 1:03 are you in love ? LOOK AT HER !!!! SAY IT !!!!! 😂

[@gargenfluckgosphenspiels4849]

Wow I just realized Bill Hicks got some of his material from Sam.

[@sarahklarkson3169]

Gargenfluck Gosphenspiels the reagan bit yeah I relealized that too

[@kennethnoisewater8170]

That Reagan line! Boom!!!!!!

[@voiceguy3635]

True observations.

[@SKRUBL0RD]

from here on out SNL used only writers and cast in the audience for host interactions

[@adamhawn2523]

The snl audience doesn’t get or appreciate his humor.

[@sartainja]

Frack them and the 🐐 they rode in on.

[@shutterbug_713]

I crack up when he yells!

[@greatsajby9266]

The great Bill Hicks also had a bit about how Reagan was only wounded.

[@Morgil27]

At first it seemed like he was screaming for no reason, but then he says his ex took everything from him except his scream 😂

[@shutterbug_713]

0:40 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@mrgrinch13]

I need a "love" marker to click on. Sam was master class, and his ironic end just fucking sucks.

[@GaryByrd-t6w]

Rest in peace Sam kinison you gave us many many laughs.

[@jameshorigan3322]

Miss you Sam.

[@davidfoster8172]

he was amazing on married with children

[@DarrenFinley]

He really should've been front man in a band! With that scream and he can shred like nobody's business! Me thinks he may have miss his true calling! 🙆‍♂️🤷‍♂️🙋‍♂️

[@jamesricker3997]

Spot on with Reagan It's nice to see someone from the '80s who could see through Reagan's garbage

[@jrcwwl]

I'm just laughing at you, yet you're the same someone who fell for obama's and clintons garbage. Now watch this dimwit claim he's a libertarian---like I haven't heard that one before ad nauseam. Can't say I blame you though for not wanting to publicly admit you're a dem/liberal.

[@johngullo9420]

jrcwwl And he probably loves the corpse currently occupying the White House.

[@jrcwwl]

@@johngullo9420 Yes, him and his side kick the knee pad queen.

[@dontpanic316]

Toe Rogans favourite comedian

[@stephaniehand503]

great

[@zBijs]

then it was a joke. But in 2020, you actually welcome someone to Hell when you scream to his face without, or even with, a mask :)

[@randymillhouse791]

"You're healed."

[@jaydoubleu3419]

when i watched this on tv back in 1986 it was censored

[@andrejohnson6731]

I don’t know if this is an 80s thing but I never saw it with Sam. A few chuckles at best.

[@danacarney7017]

a comedy Giant.

[@hudsonhawk0016]

Sorry I'm late folks, I stopped by the 7- eleven for smokes. MARLBORO, MARLBORO! Smokie smokie! Does anyone speak English in this country?

[@andrewdavid-l3l]

fair best live in your love haha

[@Romans219]

Never be another

[@charliesmodels647]

That Reagan Joke is so underrated

[@Oppeldeldoc1]

My mother was usually very non-political, but she couldn't stand Ronald Reagan, so she thought that joke was hilarious.

[@daveconleyportfolio5192]

It was sure to get a cheap laugh from people who were fashionably liberal. You know, the ones who ultimately became far more hateful and inept than the people they mocked.

[@JP5466]

New concept comedy, and most ppl in the audience did not get it.

[@andrewdavid-l3l]

tagging nock offs on nuc em

[@scotsbillhicks]

Hmmm…certain…similarities with Bill Hicks. But before you start, I would dearly like both of them up and about plus George, Richard, and Christopher Hitchens.

[@roel.vinckens]

Replace the statue of liberty with a statue of him holding up a microphone. Less french.

[@margiejohnson5722]

Snl should have comedians on again as an act, not just the host.

[@RogerThat1945]

Did he re-incarnate as Bill Hicks?

[@sandrajon]

🤣😂

[@terrymokihana1421]

This sucks and I like Kinison

[@jackpeters9048]

The man was funny...

[@Frederick-v1v]

Pearl Harbor day. Appropriate.

[@seamusblack5876]

When Sam died bill hicks shamelessly stole his whole Act

[@claudioettorre5000]

LOL

[@only257]

😂

[@JaxFPrime81]

SNL before communism: Gold

[@kevin2400]

This makes every SJW cringe ...... imagine kinison riffing on BLM and coronavirus

[@lookbovine]

It probably makes Commies, witches and lots of other straw men cry too.

[@hogansavoy6525]

He would be mega-MAGA.

[@hogansavoy6525]

@Chris Miller Agreed.

[@HH-mw4sq]

You conservatards are hilarious with your lame attempts at rewriting history. Sam Kinison performed on "In Living Color", and was friends with many African-American comics like Robert Townsend. It was you christian conservative republicans who complained about Kinison's performances. Us SJWs were laughing our backsides off at his comedy.

[@sammcfadden3961]

Except liberals called him sexist racist and homophobic

[@shaythiele1320]

Shew that nose was stuffed

[@joemartines3545]

I love Sam Kinison but the scream was a bit excessive...

[@olgawahl4389]

Tons of women got screwed over even worse, we were used...and abused...mentally and financially all day long.

[@Lemopalm]

Terrible audience

[@VAcreeper]

John lithgow gets on my nerves,,,

[@DBJULY83]

haha

[@Mowmauf]

and this funny because????

[@kevin2400]

It rules

[@j.cgallagher7092]

He just screams. Kind of a hack.

[@jimh.7575]

I was a big fan of Sam but this was not one of his better moments. After a few years the screaming became less funny

[@Angel-np8rd]

Is this supposed to be funny?

[@TheArmchairPriest]

That whole second half was taken from Hicks. So bizarre

[@greghatton1787]

Nope, this was 85. Hicks stole it. Bummer

[@sacman3001]

The whole set is about screaming?!?! Was easier to make it back in the day

[@MrZombiejoe]

He was Lucky to borrow Cloths from someone who Dressed like Him. LOL
