Ikr? They got such amazing chemistry together!

[@igcomp1221]

If I was friends with the Needlers I would invite them everywhere and just sit back and watch them fight for entertainment and occasionally say “oooo” after they insult eachother

[@naishmika]

I would join you with popcorn

Underrated comment!!

Couples counseling might be a good career path...

[@anshumanghossd7297]

That's what couples counsellors do in their mind

[@allys744]

Usually, bickering couples make occasions very miserable. But this would be an exception.

[@jelatinosa]

My parents didn't fight this bad because my father divided his anger and rage between my mom and I. And my mom swore she only stayed with him for our benefit but I know she kicked him out as soon as I wasn't around enough for him to direct his abuse on me rather than all on her.

[@TigerTigerII]

I love that the theme song is different in every Needler sketch

[@larrymccauley6956]

Sounds like Jack Black singing this one

[@ChachaChapati]

Seth and Amy, great chemistry always.

The Needlers sketches are proof that actors can still have really good chemistry even when they're pretending to hate each other.

[@jennifercarter1627]

Please do "The Needlers in Quarantine." Pretty please??

[@Frontdesk99]

Meyers and Poehler are *GOLD* . Never looking at autocue, acting brilliantly.

[@nannerz1994]

They don't have a teleprompter they have cue cards

[@mukesh_bombay]

couples like this are soooo awkward to be around

[@tr4nsd0n4ld3]

Marco Coelho I like it !🤪

[@milascave2]

marco: Yea, public fighting is pretty rude and should be kept to a minimum.

[@JenniferSmith-gt4kn]

Haha. My boyfriend and I were like that the first year we were together, but the arguing stopped and now we get along great. Been together for 10 years now.

[@BettyWhite2171]

Sorry, not sorry 🤷

craisins - lmao we're so awful haha. Why he still likes me I don't know. lol

[@abbymorrison6857]

I have so much respect for Seth Meyers and Amy for not breaking character when they're screaming in each others faces

[@IrisPham]

Seth Meyers is HOT! Young version and current version.

[@fiftyoneandsomechange]

Yes, girl!

[@GG-uj5ru]

I absolutely love how calm they both are before making a snarky comment you wouldn't even see it coming 😭

[@epicnooo]

seth and amy are a legendary snl duo

[@imtryingmybest673]

Seth Meyers says he can’t act but nobody can deny that he’s insanely good in these sketches

[@Moccason]

I honestly wouldn't mind suffering through all the toxicity if only to be in a relationship with young Seth Meyers edit: dang I forgot he's already married to Stefon

[@nabilaadeliaputri2893]

honestly current seth meyers looks even better

[@jaimerodriguez5005]

I dont know why but Rachel Dratch is extra cute in this one.

[@ChristianDeLarge]

Jaime Rodriguez - Boobs

[@nmcclymont]

She isn't going for the laughs with her animated facial expressions, her posture is good, and her top fits. She looks lovely!

[@philb6133]

Amy too. 😍😍

Such awesome chemistry and timing. And they are not just reading off prompters. I wish SNL these days would spend more time rehearsing and not just reading off the cue cards.

[@rahideo2166]

A.A.J. Well they only have one week and multiple sketches and cues to follow

[@themfatale865]

I saw Amy on Seth's late-night talk show and they are genuinely friends - like he absolutely lights up while talking to her in a way I never saw with another guest. So that's gotta help the performances a lot.

[@cellini051]

I'm so excited for Steve to host, he's the best! And the beet salad, is that made by Dwight Schrute? Lol

[@mleiblie0513]

I was thinking the same thing

[@marylangleytaber1785]

This seems like what would happen to Andy and Angela from the Office if they got married but it's just quiet passive burns

[@practicingwitch4277]

Nah they love each other

[@practicingwitch4277]

Nevermind I thought you said Dwight and angela

[@marylangleytaber1785]

Mad King true, he would probably just cry, I guess Dwight and Angela in an argument would have fit better

[@marylangleytaber1785]

dfj bts ok I was about to say she literally cheated on Andy. The night he proposed to her. In the same building.

[@yvajoy]

And andy would only say love you while angela rolls her eyes and stares at dwight

Ladies and gentlemen one of 6 live sketches Seth Meyers is in.

[@msminmichigan]

He was in a lot before he started Weekend Update. He and Jimmy Fallon used to do a skit as Irish brothers that was hilarious.

[@AmbyJeans]

Seth was in a lot of skits, what are you talking about? He found his niche with weekend update, but he was one of my faves on snl

[@roonil3931]

he stopped doing sketches when he became head writer

[@conallen1]

I love rachel dratch, she did a great job in this sketch, lol. The look on her face is priceless.

[@jeremiahhaubenreiser6075]

This is a funny premise, I wish there were more. I'd watch a whole sitcom of people sniping like this.

[@davinanderson2003]

Ever watch Married With Children?

,Can i get that with a splash of water and like 60 sleeping pills" lmao

So Do I.

"we might as well do this" haha!!

[@idkybily]

THIS IS THE BEST ONE! Doesn't the Needlers remind you EXACTLY of the Dinner Party episode with Michael and Jan!?!!! The cross over is to die for! and Seth orders a BEET salad! Dwight reference! hahahha! PS: I love Seth in the opening credits with his arms up and screaming.

well this came first so they would've gotten the idea from this sketch but ya good observations

"So it is possible!" I lost it

[@charlottamccharliston4730]

I met a couple like this on holiday and i immediately thought I would rather be dead than live in a relationship like this

[@ladyreverie7027]

The amount of zingers the Needlers send to each other is hilarious. Toxic as hell, no one should treat their spouse like this, but it's hilarious to watch.

[@milascave2]

They are creating lots of drama so that they can have hot make-up sex. I think we all know or have been part of couples like that.

[@lamb2004]

they reminded me so much of my parents and they are still married to this day. even i don’t understand why because they’re always on each other’s throats.
