1. SOUNDBITE (English) Will Forte, actor/comedian on favorite sketches:
“And the obvious would-be cowbell. Of the recent ones that Nate Bargatze one where they’re talk of the weights and measures thing made me laugh so much. I mean, geez, Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer was always one of my favorites. Nice penis, you know that? Geez. You know, I mean, if you could literally, you know, you know Van down the…,you know, the Matt Foley sketch …Chippendales are just so it’s you know and this you know, the Sander Sandler element to this he was a producer. So, you know think about all the things for him I hadn’t seen the Hanukkah song in a long time. I you know, obviously had seen it. But like I watched it–it just happen to be on the other day. And I got to it was I hadn’t seen it in so long that it was like watching it freshly get it. It’s like it’s so good.”

-SOUNDBITE (English) Jason Sudeikis, actor on favorite sketch:
“I know. I mean, I would probably choose that we did this sketch during my run there. Kenan was the lead of called ‘What Up with that?’ And that’s it’s the same answer I give when people ask who was my favorite. And a big part of that is, is part of the reason I put it in there is because I feel very proud of the of the group, the generation I came up on, you know, and through the show with both on camera and behind the scenes. And that is a sketch that featured everyone, you know, including, you know, the host, obviously. But then also we get some real wild, you know, like cameos, people that wouldn’t, you know, never speak that you would absolutely prefer if they did like Robert De Niro or Robin Williams or, you know, I mean, just to name a few. And yeah, I think that that thing is, is a great, a great testament to where we’re at least comedy was ten years ago when I was on that show ten years ago. Good Lord. Over 10, 12, 11, oy yoy yoy!”

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Bowen Yang, actor/comedian on how it stays relevant:
“I think with a show like SNL, we have the latitude to be a little variety show and give you different sensibilities and different parts of that, different perspectives. I love it. It’s a very pluralistic place for comedy because it’s one of the last places where you can sort of have a grab bag of different kinds of stuff. "

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Bowen Yang, actor/comedian on the 50th celebrations:
"It feels amazing. It’s especially sublime right now because it’s Dana coming through, it’s Andy coming through, it’s Maya coming through like it is the sort of multiverse of the show, sort of, you know, coming in on one point of itself right now. And it’s such a beautiful celebration, but it’s also this weird kind of interdimensional sort of like convergence of these different timelines. It’s really surreal. I am so grateful to be a part of it.”
