The One With My Favorite SNL Skits

Saturday Night Live has always been one of my favorite shows. When you find someone who has watched SNL it’s pretty easy to continue a conversation with them because there are way too many funny skits to talk about. Here are my top 5 favorites:

1.) More Cowbell


This is easily one of the funniest SNL skits of all time. This skit takes place in a studio where Will Ferrell, Chris Parnell, Jimmy Fallon, and Chris Kattan are recording the song "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" by Blue Öyster Cult. Christopher Walken hosted this episode, and in this skit walks in and demands that Will Ferrell uses “more cowbell” in the performance. I don’t know if their outfits are the funniest parts, or that Jimmy Fallon can not stop laughing (as usual).

2.) New Girlfriend


This skit aired this year when Fred Armisen hosted. Jason Sudeikis, who plays Michael, brings his new girlfriend Regine, Fred Armisen, to meet his friends. Physical affection makes Regine act out in strange ways. Everyone is uncomfortable and all the characters break in this skit which always makes it even more funny.

3.) Chronicles of Narnia (Lazy Sunday)

Andy Samberg is one of my favorite people ever, and his SNL Digital Short’s never fail to make me laugh. One of his classic shorts was released in 2005 with Chris Parnell. This offbeat rap about their desire to see the film The Chronicles of Narnia changed Samberg’s life forever. This rap got him recognized a lot more and was a platformfor him. P.S Lazy Sunday Pt 2 is just as good.

4.) Wild and Crazy Guys

The Festrunk brothers were some “wild and crazy guys.” Dan Aykroyd and Steve Martin played Georg and Yortuk Festrunk who were political refugees that escaped riots by “throwing many rocks at a Russian tank.” They usually talked about their “large bulges” and “many swinging adventures.” A must watch.

5.) Kissing Family

This is probably one of the grossest skits but I promise you will not stop laughing at it. This skit, which includes so many amazing actors like Bill Hader and Fred Armisen, is about a family that are REALLY close and love to show their affection to each other. The whole family definitely has boundary issues because they all make out with each other. I know it sounds gross, but it is hysterical.


These are just SOME of my favorites. It was really hard to pick only five. Some of my other favorites that you should watch are “Sarah Palin Interviews with Katie Couric,” “Homelessville,” “The Spartan Cheerleaders,” “Wayne’s World,” “Debbie Downer,” “The Barry Gibb Talk Show,” “Target Lady,” “Matt Foley: Motivational Speaker,” and of course any Celebrity Family Feud. I’m sure as soon as I submit this article I will think of 20 more, but those are the greatest that come to mind. Hope you enjoy this list of hysterical skits and LIVE FROM NEW YORK ITS SATURDAY NIGHTTTTTTT!

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
