Adam Sandler's "I Was Fired" Monologue - SNL 

TBushart love or hate his movies he still makes money it’s like Michael Bay and his transformers

Yeah....but Sandler had to make 4 million movies to get that 4 billion

@Jan Michael Vincent Sandler is probably laughing at people who mock him.

People keep shitting on his movies but I think he's been on a good roll for a while. Starting with the Mankowitz Stories (I think that's what it's called, with Dustin Hoffman and Ben Stiller) which was fantastic, and Uncut Gems of course

I don't know, it's pretty shallow, if u ask me.

Uhhh, this would be way funnier if you really didnt think it was a chruch lady.... or maybe it's entirely funnier this way

B D I hear you. Tried my best.

Lol

What happened with you and the church lady? We got married...

You're probably still a virgin so BYE CRAZY PERSON!!!!

That’s so awesome to know!!! Thanks for telling us that, man . Because we shouldn’t care that much about celebrities but it is what it is! I wouldn’t extremely bummed if you said he had acted like an a$$hole but still respectful that he is a person too and probably had somewhere way more important to be than any of us would! Glad to know he was really cool !

I met him too at Whole Foods in Brentwood. He actually came up to me & said something. Made a joke. I looked up & couldn’t believe it was Adam Sandler. But, super cool 💯

@@lcb3129 hes a cool dude.. I should know from experience. He and I GOT IT ON!!! WOOOOWEE!

I met him also was an extra on the movie pixels and he was in Toronto. Such a nice guy they told us not to talk to him but some of us did anyways.

i met him at a waffle house in NYC and he is so humble and down to earth i was just a 12 yr old boy at the time and he sat down and talked to me for 20 minutes about what i wanna be when I grow up and told me to always work hard and stay motivated and to never let myself fall short of the crowd but to fall behind and buy a lambo and drive through the crowd and to this day ill never forget those words 11 years later I'm now 22 and now I'm an underwater welder for ocean corp making 7 figures a year driving ofc a yellow lambo thank you adam for changing a little boys life that day ill forever be in your dept

I’ve said that a thousand times 100% agree

Even old Norm could squeeze out a cameo playing basically himself.

Yep using the Hollywood system to bring in his buddies and share the wealth. His movies maybe shite most of the time but at least his integrity is still intact as a decent human being. One of my all time favorites

He reminds me of the late Garry Marshall. They both were loyal and kind to people. Had a lot of the same people in their movies. That says a lot about them.

The thing was he even came back to host because you know it wasnt Lornes fault. It was the bigger heads in the company who decided to fire Sandler. At the time, SNL wasnt getting great views. Now looking back, the 90s cast was the best to ever do it

Mr. R Tramble ugh! Lol right in the heart!!! Right!!!? I can hear him as well.🙌🏽😂😂😂🙌🏽

LMAO i read that in his voice

Yup NBC fired Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, and Chris Farley but later made Jimmy Fallon the host of The Tonight Show. Clearly not comedy experts, regardless of TV power.

I’m glad Sandler opened the door for Farley’s spirit to participate in this show. I wish he could be here in the flesh.

True. That's the most believable part of the whole story.

I LOVE HOW YOU LOVE THAT

I love how he gets better SNL roles now that he isn't a cast member.

@@aleji0 well I love how you love that

I love how the original comment is from a woman yet no one says she

He lives downstairs

Hey Sweetheart ......Thanks for being a great fan,and also thanks for your likes and comments under my fan page,i have being monitoring your page,and i can see you're a true fan, may God continue to bless you....??

Hey Sweetheart ......Thanks for being a great fan,and also thanks for your likes and comments under my fan page,i have being monitoring your page,and i can see you're a true fan, may God continue to bless you....??

The fake Adam Sandler loved this! Farley was a comedic chaos ball and sadly, it wasn't shocking his heart gave out. As a Wisconsinite, he made us proud. It's always the funniest people hurting the most within.

RIP Chris

He is always loyal to his crew. Good guy mr sandler

Bullshit

Just ask RDJ

Get hired first

Samantha Jaikaran lmfao that only works if you grind....it ain’t gotta be NBC shit it could be McDonald’s your goal shouldn’t be to get fired but to get hired my love

It’s like dropping out from Harvard. You were already special.

@@elibreezy it's a fucking joke dude

i will ,i will

Hopefully!

How about it really is coming. The industry loves telling the truth as a joke!! They love to foreshadow what's coming. I give it to the end of summer tops unless he does something big to show growth/value

Sandler should have been banned from Comedy after being fired. He is NOT funny! I'm glad that the world is beginning to see that and Sandler is not appearing in half a dozen (of the same fucking movies) per year. Piss poor impressions and the same couple "Weird voices" is not considered great comedy outside the third grade. You deserve every Razzie you were nominated for, I'm thrilled that in the future you will be remembered as a piss poor actor and a subpar comedian AT BEST!

ScarlettP lol😅😅😅😂

Because, he is: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ivxx_grnL2c.html

No that's Andy Samberg

And they are best friends now

bro imagine Adam being Andy Samberg and Pete’s dad in a movie tho

Chad and brad

I agree with you read my comment you will see 👀

Yes!! So many haters, but dude, he my generations comedic legend!

a legendary hack lol

​@@TerryFGMI think you are talking about yourself if you just take out the legendary part

Ro G Black don't crack

Kenneth T Easley cause theyre born cracked lol

Dead people don’t age either. So what.

@@Obsessivemind God help you

V A M P I R E

be patient, cause it's coming soon!

just be patient

It's gonna happen, just wait.

idgi why should he be fired

@@christie5497 A joke about coming of age for SNL comedians.

Judd Apatow roomed with him when they were both starting out, and said he's absolutely the funniest person he's ever known.

Yes, I says too.

He was an old chunk of coal

It’s a joke because Norm ALWAYS lied about his age. From The View To Larry King he never gave a straight answer. Just like all of his comedy it was just a pointless inside joke he had with himself! RIP!!! He was the best.

Norm died at 61, so that makes that line more disturbing in hindsight.

That is because you are a witch

@@01dirtydirk Low blow. Unnecessary, too.

He bashes trump and dated ariana grande. Too easy

Yea ironically that was one of Pete's funniest jokes, that with the one were you could have 25 oz of weed on the streets but can't smoke

"That's coming soon."

Wouldn’t he have had to have aged in the first place?

Why do people keep saying that? His eyes look really creased around the edges and around the mouth (even when he hosted and on later Letterman appearances). He looks like a black guy in his mid-'50s, which he is.

LoL right! when he first came out.....I was like that guy looks like Chris Rock. He's too young to be really him

Holy wrinkle cream .... Chris Rock is TWO years OLDER than Sandler.

They even brought back the flat top.

Agreed!

This was one of the best shows in years.

Elliott Stone the best episode of SNL in a very long time in my opinion!

This was a good one. But much better was Norm Macdonald's monologue when he came back to host. Lorne was NOT amused! Heh

They didn't pander offend americans or promote abortions.

Not as good as Norms but still great

@@dark_winter8238 yes norms was the best, no doubt bout that

As noted, Norm Macdonald also got fired and returned. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ghAISJbmQGk.html

Rock didn't do too bad himself. Impressed by his skill too. 🎤🎶🎤

Having 300 million in the bank really helps things get funnier

He finally got over it. He refused to host for years, but now he is older and has wised up he says.

The biggest F U to your old boss!

Why does Pete Davidson remind me of adam Sandler’s long lost son

Thanks for agreeing to have this conversation, I trust you’ll find this extremely informative and that information would lead you to greater financial heights.

I was fired.... be patient it’s coming soon lol 😂

Hang on Pete! It's not your time

Samuel Tillman have you ever heard his 100% Fresh Album??ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kRxb6RKZRPY.html😂

And he wasn’t lying

M I S T E R G R A Y story of my life @adamsadler

@@catherinemaier4957 t

One can only hope

I like Pete

Still waiting lol

Same!!

Just have patience it's coming lol.

cindy Jenkins agreed, this was hilarious. Pete Davidson is so self aware, I love it. He's so fucking funny.

RIP

cant wait til the day, so we never hear an unfunny peep from him again.

cindy Jenkins that was the funniest part of the whole song!!! 🤣🤣🤣

cindy Jenkins BEST part lol

New Jack City Chris Rock

When Chris Rock started on SNL in 1990 he was 25. Now he's about 22. HOW THE FUCK

@@irvingsanchez9273 I have that picture in my head everytime I see Chris Rock...best crackhead ever...!!!

You're on every video I watch, dude. Even in Ween music videos wtf

Hey man! Love your work!

*I wasn’t?

Déjà vu. It’s almost as if we both watched the same video.

That quote has been covered, Mr Originality.

The ultimate question

Pete was the best part of the song

Ikr sooooooooooo disrepectful to his wife .

@@007nadineL It was a joke. He said he lost it to the church lady. That's Dana Carvey.

How are you doing, my name is Josh Mark and you? i bring you good news

when did norm die.... i didnt even know he was sick

@@wwo604 September 14th of last year. Sad huh?

Same!

I have question , are you normal?

Conan is the funniest late night host ..........................EVAH!!

Ellie MM How young are you. Have you never watched Johnny Carson. I will not even watch late night. And there is a reason. They all use the same script. Trump this Trump that , I’m sick of the same script. You know why they brought them back. The kids today are not into tv. So they play to the next older generation. Conan has one script anti trump. I’m tired of anti Trump and I did not vote for him.

@@drmachinewerke1 Little younger than the Johnny Carson generation. But I have watched him a few times prior to retirement, and yes, he actually is the Daddy of Late Night. Conan doesn't do all that much Trump. He actually does other things, and he's funny. Colbert, Kimmel, and Fallon are sickening, imo.

@@richthegecko5995 Um, not years, and no one said kids don't watch tv. Where did THAT come from? Conan last aired sometime last October 2018. Repeat~ 2018~He's still on tv though, actually going places around the world. He is hysterical. You can go kick yourself. ;)

NBC =NOBODY CARES

Because he was the voice of the zebra on Madagascar

You're a youngin'.

@@levityoflonging22 youngin its more like new jack city and Hollywood shuffle but then i'm really dating myself

He has a name, you uncultured swine! Marty!

I think of him narrating on everybody hates Chris haha

Not much funnier. It went from a 1 to a 2.

@@randallkohn6089 That's literally 100%. Jackass

😂😂😂 I've never loved math more than these comments

i have never seen SNL cling to political comedy as much as they have now lol

@@almostapair3697 I didn't realise comedy was invovled. :/

and it only took him making 200+ million and a bunch of shit movies to finally go back to being funny

You damn right he is

Fan from back to Opera Man and Canteen Boy; first movie I bought was Happy Gilmore on VHS. Billy Madison was sold out; keep goin Adam, naysayers can turn the channel

Hope not , that 90s farting jokes are wore out

I hope he has a movie star career planned as a safety net.

@IAmaPersion You must be really young. Adam Sandler is arguably one of the top 15 most successful SNL Alums. Whether his current movies are good or not you can't deny his popularity in the 90s, early 00s.

Melissa Hart I believe you misunderstood @IamaPersion’s comment. They were talking about Pete and saying that he won’t have a career like Adam’s (meaning he won’t have a long and successful career like Adam has had)

@IAmaPersion poor grammar, edit it to unlike Adam Sandler. Pete is the drizzling shits and has no business being in entertainment.

@@MrSinister718 Exactly! 👍

I’ve always put him and Jim Carrey at the top of my list.

He just made a ton of shitty movies and some good ones

AyadriX he sucks not even funny

Kevin Elkin A ton of shitty movies?! That’s an understatement! The only good movie he’s been in is Punch Drunk Love. Everything is is dreadful.

@@realtalk934 if he's not funny he wouldn't have made it this far.

I just watched his acceptance speech which made me come back here afterwards.

Best line of the song for sure. R.i.p. Chris Farley

Adam Sandler and Chris Farley love singing Lunch Lady land.

The 90's cast was phenomenal. They put out a ton of good movies

U mean how many great comics produced SNL.

And Adam is not one of them

the meter fart

@@favrerules04 I believe you just aged yourself. Don't sleep on the 70's or 80's cast. Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, Gilda Radner, Bulushi, Eddie Murphy, Dan Akyrod, Billy Crystal, Bill Murray, etc etc.

F. N. Lorter still waiting for the day that happens!!! Great show nonetheless

Agreed. One of my favorite all time What If scenarios is "What if Sandler stayed for the 1995 season?" I don't think it woulda been as bad as a lot of people think it could have been. In reality while NBC hated him and wanted him gone they didn't really fire him per se, he decided to go to make sure everyone kept their jobs. They were gonna either cancel the show if Farley, Sandler, and a majority of the cast didn't leave or replace everyone including Lorne. Adam told him instead he's go as he had 2 movies coming up that next year. Adam mentioned that in one of the SNL books. He loved the show and didn't wanna go in 95, Farley did but not Sandler he finally got to do what he wanted to do and loved doing it. He helped carry the 1994/95 season. A 1995 with Sandler season woulda been miles different for sure. One of 1994's biggest issues was there quite simply too many people. You had Kevin Nealon who had been there for close to 10 years and was burned out, you had Jeannine Garaffalo who started drama all during her run and made it all toxic, and you had people like Jay Mohr who didn't do anything. A good majority of them would be gone: only see Sandler, Meadows, McDonald, McKinney, and Molly Shannon staying. I think Ferrell still woulda made it but there wouldn't have been Jim Brewer more than likely, and possibly not Chris Kattan which is a +. I think 1995 woulda went well regardless. Sandler woulda been his 90's self still but he woulda had better actors and writers to work with. ? is how long would he have stayed? I say at least 1 or 2 more seasons. It woulda been amazing for sure; completely different show but way more fun.

Will Ferrell sucks more than Adam Sandler. Fuck off.

@@efan2012 The writing had gone to shit in '95. Even Farley and Spade couldn't save it. The end.

Ehh I agree on the writing, it was rough that year but Farley and Spade were too worried about Hollywood to make an effort. Both of them going wasn't a major loss they checked out way earlier than everyone else. I've seen the whole season a few times; Sandler did WAY more on most shows than Farley did especially the first 4 or 5. Sandler, Chris Elliott, McKean, Shannon near the end, and Norm were about the only things they could rely on that year. Even Mike Myers was annoying at point; no big loss when he left either. I enjoy that year in terms of being awful it's a guilty pleasure and I'd rather watch them over Ferrell's run any day they are just more fun. but I spend most of it wishing they coulda pulled it together they all deserved a better last run. Sandler especially as he put a lot of effort in that year.

Michael Huynh Chris Rock is a national treasure.

they were talking Oscar with Uncut Gems.

I was looking for someone else to mention this.

Those were good years. I grew up with Belushi, Radnor, Murray, Curtin, Aykroyd, Newman. Morris.

Were there no women

Wow, didn't list a single female. Aces.

Dang....No Shit! Amazin!!

RIP Phil Hartman

lemme get that free trial

Real talent always delivers

You jealous?

That is how desperate CBS is to get people to pay for their All Access that nobody wants... They're trolling for views on an NBC video.

He never stoped delivering.......on SNL

not to mention he also somehow got engaged to ARIANA GRANDE (they broke up, but STILL)

Check out "The Meyerowitz Stories" on Netflix. It's proof that Adam Sandler can actually act and isn't just a one-dimensional slapstick comedian.

I LOVE Sandler rom-coms. On Saturday, I finally saw "Blended" with Drew Barrymore. A delightful film.

@Stang5.0 killsya Nah, Little Nicky was hella cute. 😂

Lmao this ain’t shit, watch norm’s monologue he SHITS on the show.

@@IAMYAMAMA love norm too & my boy adam good for both them throwing shade at this POS show now b/c it SUCKS

I think he’s also the highest grossing former Cosby show cast (if you could call him that) after Raven Simone… and yes he was fired from that too…

Exactly. I thought my ears were going to bleed, but he has a pretty decent voice. Go figure.

C'mon........everybody was singing "I was fired". Except Chris Rock..... " I got fired." ain't that a bitch.?

You should hear him on bill Murray's Christmas special on netflix

You gotta watch his Netflix comedy special "100% Fresh" he does all kinds of funny singing

Pete has that face you wanna punch for no good reason.

Daniel Balding he did a good monologue about getting fired when he came back to host.

They need the whole crew back! That'd be awesome!

"Yeah I got fired or you know, whatever. Lorne's a good man." *walks off stage*

Damn that would have been Awesome "ridiculous" ... hahaha "Dirty Work" reference.

More of a comment really

jeff wei 😂😂😂😂😂😂

How do you have a check mark with 22 subscribers

Yeah unfortunately he hasn't been

u talk like he's dead or something

It's funny bc with Adam Sandler it feels like his entire career was a series of side quests

Brutal?

I like that movie with Drew Barrymore where she can't remember the previous day. And she Drew him in her dreams as an egg head which meant he had become a part of her subconscious.

The classics are good. Mr.Deeds, waterboy, billy madison, happy gilmore, anger management, 50 first dates, i even like click and zohan was so dumb it was funny. After that it went to shit.

What about grown ups I love grown ups and the one with Jennifer Aniston Just go with it that was good too

BOOM! ROASTED!

Uncle Sweets have you ever heard his 100% Fresh Album??ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-kRxb6RKZRPY.html😂

I just heard that when i read it

Now rehired.

Nah. Best Line - Bass Line. Seriously. Right at the beginning of the video. Dude's fingers are on fire.

Carlos Dominguez It made me teary eyed.

I've never cried on SNL before, but that one got me because it was so heartfelt. Anyone that's lost a great friend wants them remembered, and to pay tribute, so it was beautiful to see someone get the chance to do that for their friend

He does it in his Netflix Special too - just youtube Adam Sandler Chris Farley song.

he did it in a netflix special about 8 months ago

he rhymed live and alive 😒

*Me

Didn’t Louie CK actually try to get him fired?

@@HorrorMetalDnD Lol Adam Sandler Was Getting Smhoney Back Then Huh?

yeah to bad SNL sucks now it was good back then now it is just a joke

Norm got em better

ye lmao, it works too cause he was fired just the same

Norm's comeback monologue when he hosted SNL after being fired was epic.

Pete got fired!?

the showrunner got lost on the way to the Queensborough Bridge.

They invited him but he told Lorne he would only answer to Turd Ferguson.

Yes!

They are actually best friends

DragonFly we all know -.-

And looks ageless

That's Pookie to you

aside from the Holes sketch (one of the worst sketches in 44 years) I agree

Kevin Alexander agreed!!

Micah Mcgaffin sandler is funny to every one ages between to 0 and 100 except 14 year old edgy kids like u

@markmac Totally agree. And it's crazy how it was considered the dark ages of snl cause the ratings was horrible

Ppl love to hate this show, smh. Makes no sense... But hey, comedy is subjective

​@@MikeRod2185the ratings werent exactly horrible though, back then they had inflated views on ratings, by todays standards that viewership would have been amazing

Right?! Who in their right mind would see that lineup and think, "they gotta go"? Granted they were all big names at that point so they probably would've left on their own soon, but still. If I'm Lorne Michaels I'm thinking I would want to milk that cow as long as possible, not throw em out into the cold. I actually liked the lineup tho until about 2004-05. That's when I stopped watching TBH

@@jarradlavoie but you'll comment on a youtube video about SNL. Sound logic. 🤣

@@gregfaber3417 uh yeah cuz I was responding to his comment about snl on RU-vid so.....tf is ur point

Jarrad Lavoie probably knew they’d have to pay them more if they came back for another season

Early 2000’s SNL was awesome
