THIS HAD ME DYING!| Black Jeopardy with Tom Hanks - SNL REACTION

[@Serai3]

They did four Black Jeopardy sketches, and they were all great. The one with Chadwick Boseman is wicked funny. You'd love it. :D

[@rw4487]

Yeah I saw it funnnnny

[@dianeferguson3555]

Tom Hanks was still my favourite

[@wreckingKREW1]

Yeah,this one and Chadwick's were the best for sure. The Louie CK and Elizabeth Banks ones were "meh" in my opinion.

[@shawnadmire5309]

This sketch was the best piece of social commentary in the last 45 years

[@cici7333]

It really was quite clever.

[@SkyCloudSilence]

What kind of things is it socially commenting about?

[@shawnadmire5309]

@@SkyCloudSilence how similar the MAGA crowd and black people are despite their differences. Jesus, you need a road map drawn?

[@SkyCloudSilence]

@@shawnadmire5309 I do, because literally NOTHING in the skit made any sense whatsoever, much less how it's "funny" is completely baffling. Sounded like Pig Latin to me. Less understandable than Pig Latin actually.

Hahaha! I like when Doug said he liked the big girls! Those two sista’s was impressed with that. 🤣

[@docbearmb]

When I saw Tom Hanks with the MAGA hat and you with a big smile, I knew I had to drop everything and tune into your reaction. A good skit. Shows a lot about people and that the differences really aren’t that big.

[@becksullivan4796]

Ahhh the days we could make fun of ourselves and each other- when it’s just for fun. Can’t we just have some fun???????

[@wreckingKREW1]

"The days"? This skit is from like 3-4 years ago. Not like it's ancient history.

[@becksullivan4796]

Unfortunately our country has so changed in the last 2 years it is almost unrecognizable. We do not have the freedom to speak or to share our humor in just a short period of time. Skits like this poke fun at us all but today the social media basement dwellers would probably demand the cancellation of SNL.

[@wreckingKREW1]

@@becksullivan4796 Horse puckey. What,you think "cancel culture" as the buttsore brigade calls it,is something new? Either you're young or you've had your head buried in the sand. And what's particularly galling is a lot of the same people crying about the loss of freedom of speech,or espression,as they see it,are the same ones who were at the forefront of trying to kill things THEY didn't like. Like heavy metal. Or rap music. Dungeons and dragons. Video games. Buffy the Vampire Slayer. The Teletubbies. Sesame Street. And PLENTY of other shows,movies and music I can recall the religious right trying to cancel going all the way back to the when I was a young teenager. Because the first one I can remember them losing their collective shit over was the brilliant and hilarious sitcom titles "SOAP". All because it had a gay character,played by Billy Crystal. That was around 1976 or 77. Threes Company drove them up the wall to,now that I think on it.

[@wreckingKREW1]

@@becksullivan4796 Also,SNL has done plenty of way more racially and politically chest out skits than this since this one aired. Like almost every episode. The only ones I see crying,pissing and moaning about them are the same ones who cry,piss and moan about "cancel culture". When they're not too busy trying to cancel Coke. Or MLB. The NFL. Delta. I can keep going.

[@lauracwhitney]

You made such an important point. Sharing laughter together is the best path toward understanding and appreciation of others. I am thankful that we humans are not all the same. The richest life we can possess is built upon Valuing Differences.

[@sharonscott3870]

It was so cute. I hope he does it

[@christinegelabert1651]

Ohhh yes! That one was awesome! I've loved SNL since it came out in the 1970s and it's always been on point with whatever's been going on in the world. That's WHY when ppl start crying now saying it's getting too political... I'm like seriously, have you NOT SEEN this show before? They've busted chops on pretty much everything political going on since day one~PICK A DECADE, ANY 1 AND TRUST ME YOU'LL FIND THEM BREAKING BALLS ON SOMEONE OR SOMETHING. NOONE is off limits~EVER! THAT'S what has made this show great cuz they don't take any crap AND they don't have to cuz of their timeslot. They made the point of being late night so they WOULDN'T HAVE issues with sponsors pulling out and language being questioned cuz it'd possibly violate ethics cuz kids might hear it. TELL your kids to get to bed! IT was put on at an hour that all the networks considered was way past any time that young kids should be awake. Nighty night! Put your points on and go upstairs NOW! LOL! 😂

SNL was worth cutting a bad date short for, to rush back home and catch some laughs. The Jeopardy skits are classic. The Celebrity Jeopardy skits are my favourite, especially with 'Sean Connery.

[@alexandriafitts9262]

Definitely Eddie Murphy as Mr. Roger's. If you don't remember him, he was a beloved dude that was a show a children. Eddie did a really funny version of his show.

[@tedwitus]

[@doclewis8927]

I do believe the goal of SNL is to show people that we aren't as different as people think. They do it in a way that could be used to actually teach people what to do and what not to do. To have a conversation with a laugh but that also has a point.

SNL is really worth to check it out! They made many legends as well ... John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd were part of SNL in the past. That's she show were they came up with the "Blues Brothers", which was meant as a parody, but got so successful that they sold more records than any other blues band back then, went on a tour around the states and so decided to do a movie about the "Blues Brothers" - a movie we all do know very well... :-) Maybe you can check out the SNL-performance of "King Bee" ...

I'm a con, and I was both pleasantly surprised (since snl likes to give us a lot of hate usually) and had a good laugh. The truth is ppl's assumptions about us are false media creations. I'm not saying there aren't bad apples, but I'm saying most of the opinions are born of ignorance. As with all hate often is. But this was a great bridge to bring us all together. Plus, the truth is, even in the hood (trust me I lived in wrigleyville in ss chi-raq, so I'm plenty aware of the issues) most blacks are conservatives, they just don't realize it.
