Cut for Time: Cast List - SNL 

Eloy Ochoa it was so accurate it was scary

Eloy Ochoa NAH FOR REAL THO 😭😭😭

Theater kids live life on peak cringe at all times.

As a theatre kid, I can confirm 😂

Yeah I was genuinely impressed by that. They utterly nailed the balance of outlandish and banal that apparently motivated us in high school theater but never noticed at the time.

@Noir Way i feel like i gotta respond to you since we're both watching this video within 30 minutes of each other but i have nothing to say except i disagree but also i respect your opinion and wish you well

@@cameronperry358 that might be the most polite way to tell someone to stfu 😂😂

His face and forced laugh after are Perfect.

It’s true.

Damn, I was just about to say that... That dude is spot on

Same!

I came back to this video purely because of it being stuck in my head for at least the past 3 days.

There goes the Baker is my random rent free repeat.

*STOP!*

The real ones already know that voice from his “David Blaine Street Magic” lol

What explain

@@emmaoswald8043 She thinks he's the most talented male but not the most talented overall cos she wants to be the most talented

@Della thanks lol that was going to bother me for days

I thought it was a joke on the fact that Mickey's character does not seem to be very masculine.

I figured this was more along the lines of it being for a “male” role and alluding toward him being overly flamboyant. I don’t think it had anything to do with her trying to put emphasis on herself

I know right he’s giant compared to them

Haha

If he is bigger than all of them, why does he not eat them? These are the real questions.

I never think of him as tall lol

Half the time I'm just looking at Ego

The choreographer and lighting designer parts were brilliant and spot-on.

I was the dog in Annie 😂 I felt her pain

Very original comment, I’ve never seen this one before...

More like basically any theatre art movie lol

Yes----frustrated Actor who does the put down, sophomore "cretin '''

And, like, um...I think Mikey would be, like, trying to make it on Broadway...Ya know?

YES!!!

Please

I think Glee was the closes thing

Have you seen Waiting for Guffman

They seemed pretty close, they did a lot of skits together

Katie Corbett i can confirm

yes, yes, we know

Truueee and I’m talking about the Teacher, Choreographer and Tech guy lol

This is true.

well some people have to take it seriously to run it "smoothly"

Sometimes "cut for time" skits are better than the ones left in the actual show :p

exactly..like why wasnt this used!

Probably because no one could keep a straight face. Or maybe NBC didn't want to air a sketch about an adult telling kids to screw each other and kissing with tongue. I think it's hilarious because I know these are all adults just doing a funny sketch but I can see the censors not wanting that to be televised.

@@ccramit Really??!! The censors have let a lot of below-the-beltline "humor" slip through the cracks over the years. This so deserved to be seen.

New to SNL thought this was a highlight. Unbelievable this is amazing

Kenan Thompson's character the kind of guy who'd come to your classroom in the middle of the class and tell you sorry homie your grandpa died

Tell God I said Gracias

😂😂😂😂 that part & when he was spying through the mask 👀 😂😂😂😂

It makes it more believable

What's also funny is the fact that Cecily and Heidi are taller than most of the boys

I think generations are getting shorter and smaller. Look @ every single rapper out right now. They are small enough to wear women's clothes and some of 'em do! The Migos wear women's blouses on the reg. Lil Wayne wears skinny jeans from the juniors section. It's really odd. Men on average are under 6' tall and weigh less than 150lbs. There has got to be some sort of nutritional deficiency.

Could just be genetics. They say the brains of the newest generation are also decreasing in size but are much more efficient with certain skills than ever before. Could just be a change in biology or of course the rappers in question are just popular and happen to be shorter than six feet.@@CC-si3cr

@@CC-si3cr the average height of a soldier in WW1 was 5’6, now the average height for men is 5’10

Yeah i noticed that too....because the door...

Its so funny because I never think of Will as tall

I met him 15 yrs ago. He IS tall, probably 6'2"

@@1Blanchot and thats tall! considering average is 5'9-5'10

i mean...they are kid actors wtf u mean

Agreed.

Honestly, I think it was cut partially because literally everyone breaks. Lorne famously doesn’t really like when they break, he’s not aggressive about it but clearly the dude prefers when they keep it together, and while this is ducking hilarious, no one keeps it together.

@@ivans562 -- As this was filmed during the dress/tech rehearsal, which runs between 8pm - 10pm on Saturday nights before the live show, it's unlikely the skit was cut due to the cast breaking. Far more likely that the skit was cut for timing purposes. If this was cut and it's genuinely funny, there were probably other skits during this episode that were just as funny or even funnier. Since they began uploading skits immediately after the show, they know they have the option of still "airing" skits that are strong but can't be fit in during the live show's runtime. This is a good change from before, as during the time I worked at 30 Rock, I saw some of the funniest skits during dress rehearsals that never made it to air, which was a shame for the regular viewers of the show.

@@eme.261 Fair play. You learn something new every day.

Yeah, serious let down

Well we know who's playing the mayor...

There's no way anyone but Mikey is playing Birdie.

If you freeze it you can see Casper plays Birdie. Every other character aside from Birdie has two actors. At the end when Mikey day says it’s double cast it wasn’t exactly correct as he was the only one play Birdie.

Poor Beth why does he hate her so much😔

“Shut up Beth!”

We all have that one girl in our theatre classes

@@kathiarequena5814 in high school theatre I was Beth :'(

I'm so sorry.

too fucking close to home

Wait Jose...you son of a ...you stole that role from me

as a former "Matron" in Hairspray,, I get this 100%

and if it follows with /ensemble on the cast list you know you're screwed

I was a “Mom” in Hairspray, can relate.

*KENAN*

And also when he says “back up” and Aidy breaks. His mannerisms with that line😂

Rare to see Farrel Crack

William Gil Seriously

It's pretty hacky and unoriginal imo. Everyone but will ferrel that is

@@mikecantreed Just shut your face

I have been in this group

Watch Theatre Kid on regaljoe's channel. It's hard to beat.

I hadn’t even thought of my tech director in years but I immediately remembered her because of Kate

omg wait I AM DEB NOW

Because She is a les And aren’t we all

She looks exactly like our tech director who was a trans guy with that exact haircut

Because Kate McKinnon can be literally anyone. She is all of us.

Hilarious!

In literally dying

KingAmroth God your talented

WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SEE THE CLIP TOO!?!?!

_Beauty and the Beast_

@@godlygamer911 let me express his enthusiasm. Who hurt you?

Wonder why Casper sang that particular song from that particular musical.

omg can someone explain this to me

@@vwgl1169 It comes from this musical: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wlY3CviQQ74.html

cindyfey I’m fkn cryin 🤣

That was hilarious! I had to rewatch it a couple of times!

what are new gels

best ever They are lighting gels. You put them in front of the spotlights to change their color on stage. Sometimes they can rotate to quickly change shades. Not sure how expensive they are; I’ve seen some and they just feel like thick colored cellophane plastic.

@@hpotter22090 They're not super expensive but since the lights are so hot they melt/warp pretty easily, so they could be in short supply on a high school budget.

@@Moggetslittlesister Sounds like privilege. The only thing you get in Australia is drama blocks under a lightbulb. Stage and costumes? That's called stealing from the art class

@@bradyfiscus4723 we don’t have gels. I’ve used leds but I prefer gels because I like to mix colors and leds like to turn white

MahdiRanger so true

When I was in high school, we called that "band geek humor". They laughed at anything and everything. It was annoying.

Omg it takes me waaaaaaaaaay back! Test results, cast lists...

Right on point

ok boomer

Those two words said a WHOLE BACK STORY

Keenan is one born comedic showman.

He did something to make Will break lol

Except beck every single person broke just by looking at the face he made 😂

It's crazy watching him do sketch comedy when was a kid and now as adult!

TRULY!!! I've watched it almost enough times to consider thinking of being ashamed of myself...almost

Laila K bc they are

Laila K they are too funny and talented

it's cuz they _were_ those theater kids in high school clubs

Isn’t that what they are?

Mikey Day is 39 years old and still has the build of a high school kid.

LITERALLY my best friend in our senior show

ikr 😭

could not have been more accurate

CHANNING!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone loves the choreographer lol

@@blendingwitch6206 that's what I was just about to post i've never had a choreographer I didn't like lol

RIGHT?

My favorite part of the whole sketch is how Heidi shoots her arm out at him and then twists and drops it. For some reason, that movement really captures the awkward teenage drama club kid for me.

It what cut for “time”, purely cut because of how long it is not because of the quality of the skit

I know exactly what you mean! In this case, Will Ferrel and I went to the same high school (I went a good ten or fifteen years later or something). I don't know if we had the same theater teacher, but that guy--even that look exactly--is my old high school theater teacher. Beautiful tribute, if that's what it was.

I would think because literally everyone is breaking character. Like I’ve heard that Lorne has said before about breaking “This isn’t Carol Burnett!”

Yeah, I thought it was great, too. Thank goodness for RU-vid. Before this the only unaired sketches around were in the DVD collections. And you can tell the audience was into it 100%.

Ninjago dudes.

Chauntel Bland, I cd only follow 2/3 of it, but the energy and spirit of it was amazing - something the SNL cast members would know everything about!

Right down to the lesbian tech who's obsessed with gels.

Makes me wonder if the theater kids and theater adults were watching this. 😂

This is SO Mr. Younts-

@ChauntelBland now, sing something like you bedded 1,000 women!

1000 women

Erica but he’s not underrated he’s a leading role in like most of the sketches.

YEAH BUT MIKEY DAY AINT GAY THATS WHAT SHES SAYIN

rooster sideburbs well she’s making a joke

and the first line he thinks of is one of Belle's in Beauty and the Beast haha

And in the dog labatory military one but he covered it well by fake writing something on the paper.

Jacob Byrd It's possible that it was supposed to air but a sketch or two ran long so they had to cut it out.

That's why

Mikey Day breaking = unreal, he is usually so solid! Will Ferrell is his kryptonite!

Jacob Byrd please h

Isn’t the show “live”? How did it get filmed but cut if it wasn’t on the live show?

Tell God I need and answer, NOW!

Related to that one 😣

Laila K yup they sure were😂🤣

Aren't they all.

@@dHolbach77 you don't get it bro you're just using something unrelated to push your anti-God agenda

I took theater classes to meet girls but never did shows. This is extremely accurate and hilarious.

You're right.

Oh no! Don't forget to ring the alarm to warn us all of the highly concerning amount of comments by car enthusiasts on videos about cars!

yes

..Yes

Ehh add a freshman and it's 1000 percent accurate

As a former theatre kid, yes. Just yes.

Totally.

Absolutely. They each are very different characters. Nobody here is just blindly going thru the motions.

Glee

You should watch “Theater Class” by Brandon Rogers it’s super low budget, and he gave up before he finished but it’s really well made and free on RU-vid

I'd watch it.

@@livingoctopus LOL

and he omly said 2 words. hilarious

My favorite part of the entire sketch! 😂😂😂

A lot of the people broke! This is one of my favorite sketches of the year!

Pholoxo I’ve literally watched it like a thousand times! 😝

@@jamieeagle7516 As a longtime SNL superfan this is a diamond in the rough.

Sarkastik Leader I think he did

Sarkastik Leader he looked ridiculously funny!

It seems like it started earlier in the "back up" part.

The white bandana around his neck killed me and that damn hair XD

@@HUNbullseye it did, but after they got it together, Keenan's entrance made them loose it again

Nailed it

Sing something like you bedded a thousand women

Immediately lost my player's card for recognizing the song

My favorite part🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂

Kate can do a butch lesbian in her sleep. Same with Heidi as a teenager.

lol

“He promised me new gels...” too real

Not at all.

@christopher weise ruining the kissing ass party for Kate even when she's not great in this sketch?? Yeah, sure. I'll point that out.

thats not what happened at all.

@@alabarjhoni9742 It plainly IS what happened.

@@alabarjhoni9742 guess you were watching a different skit.

Dude, same.

That makes it even better lol

light up signs work wonders

So bummed it got cut for time, it’s an awesome skit!!!

Honestly I’ve noticed that when the cut for time sketches that are posted were recorded during the dress rehearsal, the crowd is a lot more active. I would assume that’s cause people who attend pre show performances are more die hard fans lol. Also, the cast doesn’t feel as much pressure as the live show.

the laughs are pre-recorded, listen to how they fade away

Absolutely... This moment has immediately become one of my top 10 best SNL moments ever 😆

The timing and delivery was spot on. Genius.

What other song could he have sung to get the same effect? "I Feel Pretty" from _West Side Story_ ? "Fan Tan Fannie" from _Flower Drum Song_ ?

I love how he hides his face when laughing.

Hmm... You bullied them, didnt you Joe?

as someone who was one, we most certainly were not

@@mylord9395 ha, no.

@@joecook5689 totally believable

@@callmekitto you're being modest. Some of my best friends were drama kids in all the plays. They are ten out of ten in my book.

1 senior girl is going to be very disappointed

This was not cut, I remember seeing it.

I was in drama, it’s absolutely accurate.

There were somany guest celebrities..Larry David, Maya Rudolph, Woody Harreilsen,Tracy Morgan and even the SNL guy who was mayor Bloomberg. It was good.

bubu joo Estes Fred Armisen

I know right? Really well written

@@RtasVadumeeKostas According to the cast list, the role of Conrad Birdie was not double casted.

I know!! Will Aidy be a human??

That’s how you wrote a story :D

Lmao! Same!

Not really

At 4:36 when he said "What are you DO..." that was the first time I've seen a cast member break by actually speaking words LOL

@@ElizabethT45 i’ve never seen mikey break period! that’s why i found this so funny bc he was trying soo hard LOL

@@ElizabethT45 wait why was he saying that

@@heathernamara he just grabbed on to Cecily and tried to hide it it was adorable

Soon as Will's character told a couple of high school students, "Your hw is to bang each other's brains out." = "Uhhhh... sorry, cut for time."

brothercartman cut because show went long not because it was bad

cause Kyles in it :(

I have a small penis.

It had no ending but hysterical!

Something happened that had alot of them almost breaking and i cant figure out what it was

@@jsmith7348 I think it was will bumping into aidy? I’m not sure though, there’s a reason I’m lurking through the comments

@@jsmith7348 it feels too like mikey had a line he couldn’t get out. He starts to say ‘what are you doing!?’ but then hides behind Cecily. This seems to set Will off too but Im still not entirely sure what exactly triggered them. Lol

It's because Aidy accidentally bumped her chest into Will at around 4:35

@@davidadams3478 that would actually make a lot of sense

Bridge exactly lol even the theatre teacher is a little spot on

@@smellyhero64 Tech Director was perfect.

Nails the Rediculous bullshit drama of directors

They were probably all theater kids.

Bridge exactly...my daughter is in the drama club...YES this is accurate 😂🤣😂🤣

let me guess..you voted for Biden and harris LMAO

@Alabar Jhoni what the hell does someone's political views have to do with an snl sketch?

@@fleurette7770 he was gonna agree with her but he's never spoken to a woman before so he got a lil nervous and went off-road

I think about that a lot- so simple and yet so commanding.

Well I’m sure there are always multiple cut sketches its just that they don’t upload them all

👩‍💻👨‍💻⌛

Sometimes there’s 6, usually around 3-4 cut for time sketches but they only upload 1 usually

All I can say is I'm so glad there's YT so we can see them.

Record for most cut for time sketches that are later released on RU-vid.

He is an improv god

Watch Will Forte dancing with Peyton Manning 😂 everyone broke character except Will 😂

And Kyle at 1:45

4:55 they ALL BROKE lol

Grace Mcnerney and kyle again at 3:16

It might have been really relatable to some of them. Theater really is like that sometimes.

It's dress rehearsal.

I’m a theatre kid (hardcore) and this sketch CRACKED ME UP! ACCURATE AF

Maybe they were all theatre kids? Maybe that’s why they are actors?

The piano tie! There’s always one person in the department that has one.

They were definitely all theatre kids

No you're not.

Thelema bold of you to assume i’m not Always howling.

@@kathish1549 listen, if you're the kind of girl who howls on a regular basis, we need to have a chat. we must go on a date and see where that takes us.

Highly doubt you would howl... I mean who does that even if it is extremely funny

Back off of my sis Kath. I also suffer from ware-wolfism and consistently howl depending on the moon phase. We are a small but proud species

CierraB04 yeah that was crazy! Was it planned?

Elliott Jones it was, he had to set up Kenan and Kate to come in, but I don’t think everybody was ready for it 😂

I completely lost it at that lol

I could’ve swore that Mikey Day was saying “what are you doing” to Will’s arm gestures, like the exaggerated back-up motion wasn’t part of it originally and Mikey pointing it out on stage made almost everyone break 😂 I seriously wish this made it into the final cut!!!

Literally the best part AHAHA I started dying

Gang gang

It's because that stupid debate sketch was 12 minutes long.

Will farell is so amazing in the characters he plays so they kind of went sketch crazy.

they had great guests this week so they made more for fun

I was at the dress rehearsal and it 2 hours and 15 minutes long- there was another sketch cut that didn’t even make it to RU-vid

@@laurenrobinov7366 really? What was it?

Wearing the crew shirt from last year's production of Godspell, do doubt.

What is gel in this context?

@@kyfireside2402 it's a colored film you put over stage lights to change their colors. I personally prefer them over LED stage lights, but both have uses.

@@kdurden yea I do love that red shift, and conventionals look better on skin, but LED is good for unnatural looks and dance

@@kdurden Gracias

I think it was in this one too

facts.
