I still think that anytime Bill Hader hosts a fake game show, he's actually the devil in disguise.

[@bfkc111]

Or the fake Italian interview show. However, this is in noticeable contrast to how lame he actually seems in interviews and newer shows... Funny, but getting boring more quickly. I'm actually just noticing that he's way funnier than I thought to think of him.

[@nurmadihahbintizulkifli1734]

@@bfkc111 yeah i love the contrast so much. i would love to see him hosting a game show because he looks so charming in all the skits ( creepy too 😂 ) but in real life he's such a nerd and he would be nervous to do this and all these skits he was just playing his characters. he's such a great actor 😆 love him !!

You should probably watch more sketches than. Try "What's That Name?". The sketches are never really the best part of the show anyway.
