Inside the Beltway - SNL

[@mattpendell1369]

To those of you who think Lorne is going to fire the stage hand... Ain't nothing gonna happen.

[@simonallison1457]

More like promotion! She make this sketch work well. But it wouldn't have worked unless it was embarrassing at the time. You couldn't get the same brilliant result if you intended this result or tried to script it. It turned a mid-show sketch into something worthy of a cold open. You have a 5 second transition for a couple of dozen people to do a couple of dozen things on a live broadcast. Once every million times even with the most talented cast, crew and producers, something will go wrong. It just brilliant than on SNL when that happens it is the most fun and the most rewarding for the audience. We all (well most I guess) prefer the SNL that pushes the boundaries with logistically insane ideas and sometimes makes a mistake (and is able to laugh at itself) than a more "safe" version that is more risk-adverse and thus less fun.

[@mattpendell1369]

@@simonallison1457 For sure. I'm from England so we don't really do SNL but I've been into it thanks to KZbin and more often than not the sketches that stand out for me are the ones with corpses and mistakes that just make it 100% funnier. Doubt I'd be thinking about any of them as much if they were error-free. And Cecily was breaking too, that is very rare.

Lose her job? She should get a raise!

[@keithfulkerson]

I missed the stagehand when it was live, and wondered what they were laughing about.

[@Kim-lc3fv]

I had to replay the video to see if that bit intentional or not.

[@kylaarmstrong-benjamin5986]

Me too!

[@ANGELILYworks]

Same 😂

[@gregturner2363]

I've watched that bit with the stage hand several times and I still don't get what is happening. Please someone tell me.

[@ancienthumortracer4000]

Greg Turner she’s helping with the quick costumes changes and missed her cue, ran onto live tv an tried to change her 💀🤷🏼‍♀️

[@LazyIRanch]

I love the current cast, so happy that Keenan is still here and funnier than ever! Aidy had my sides hurting, she's so cute even when she breaks character and cracks up. Welcome back SNL! You've been missed.

[@jonhon]

It took me a minute to realize the previously recorded round table was just a costume change. I was about to look up the sketch from 2016.

[@courtt5077]

Same! Hahaha

[@yeahokayalright1]

I just now realized that lol thank you

[@seriousone8030]

It was done very well. Notice how Kenan has a mustache (on the "old" round tables), and he doesn't have a mustache on the current show.

[@Lafemmefutile]

Aidy’s hair was all over the place. 😂

[@abhinshetty840]

You sir are right. Watched the taping in the studio and was probably one of the more impressive things I’ve seen. During each commercial/video clip the crew jumps back on stage and helps switch costumes around for the cast.

04:41 when the wardrobe person ran on was AWESOME!!! No wonder Aidy cracked!

[@charliestcloud432]

she got fired and will be replaced by Shane Gillis

[@alexdaniels7646]

The poor production mistake is what made her break character, They were laughing because the stage hand made a mistake. Not because the material was good.

[@jssangel416]

@@alexdaniels7646 Really?! WOW, we had no idea that's why they were laughing! Don't you just love when someone explains the obvious? lol.

[@tintinban]

It's the imperfections and mishaps that made the sketch funnier.

[@americangiant1003]

Agreed. This is an old school type SNL skit where a screw up can turn this into a possible classic. Still can't beat the uniqueness of being taped on Live TV.

[@tristan7844]

the sketch was already funny before the break of character

[@sentientconfetti]

the skit was amazing but the icing on the cake was everyone laughing at each other. also shout out to that dresser who hit her cue too early. girl we feel you, and we love you.

[@moxiemae1236]

It looks like she was on time and the cameras messed up the cue.

[@43STEELERS43]

Aidy B is just so awesome. She’s my favorite cast member by far. She has such an infectious smile.

[@jenniferhalliwell416]

One of the Best skits ever Lorne! Please don't fire her! This sketch would have been easily forgotten if it weren't for the mess up. Now it will literally go in the hall of fame as one of the funniest SNL skits ever

[@raquelcrud9015]

A whistleblower? "Oh he gon go missing"- horrible part is he's not wrong.

[@williammann2088]

That is a bit harsh. I doubt the whistleblower will go missing. They will probably just have Putin poison the WB and then have the Saudi Prince bring in the old bone saw.

[@VintageRose75]

No, that would only happen on Killary's watch.

[@oscarflores8578]

It'll be another death by "scarf"

[@lilydarkmoore8769]

@@VintageRose75 Dirty Donnie Trump's known kill count started in 1989 with Stephen F. Hyde, Mark G. Etess, and Jonathan Benanav. Since then it's been a stream of deaths all of whom were people with information on Dirty Donnie. His connections to the Russian Mob are WELL KNOWN, as he used his casinos to launder money for them (which is part of the reason for their bankruptcy) and help them establish in the USA in Atlantic City. So you have no idea what's really going on.... you're just sucking up the propaganda from Mendacious Rupert Murdoch who is part of the "destroy the USA" conspiracy along with Vicious Vladimir Putin and Dirty Donny Trump.

The Character breaks in SNL make it feel as if your watching it LIVE when it’s not even thereafter. 😂

[@PerthTowne]

SNL is live at 11:30 pm in the eastern time zone, which means it's also live at 10:30 pm in the central time zone. But I don't know what happens farther west. Do they have a delayed broadcast of the "live" show for the mountain and pacific times zones--and what about Alaska and Hawaii? It can't be "live" across the whole US unless they do the same show several times a night.

[@PerthTowne]

Thanks, Bevillain

[@progKansas]

With a five seconds delay.

[@PerthTowne]

Thanks, Andrew JD. I always wondered about that.

[@eyv]

@@PerthTowne Until a few years ago, it used to re-run (taped) on the west coast. Sometimes the west coast version would be different (using dress versions of a sketch). Now it's live.

[@THR33STEP]

It has been a long week, I just wanted to laugh it out so i looked for this video. This is my favorite Aidy and Cecily break so far. Thank You SNL.

[@melanophore]

Current cast, especially the women, is probably the very best since the original, or at least a close second to the Tina, Seth, and Amy days. I'll miss Kate McKinnon, but in her absence we will really see Aidy and Cecily shine. I like Heidi and Ego as well.
