Every Close Encounter Ever: Part 1 - SNL 

Kate’s smirk when she sees someone about to break character

The best sketches are usually the ones where everyone is losing their shit because of one person. Especially if they got the veterans losing it.

Man, extraterrestrials are fascinated by Ms. Rafferty. She’s gotta be a celebrity to them at this point.

Kate McKinnon owns SNL, she fucking OWNS IT!

“So I’m out there full Donald Ducking it with my fun bun and mud gun showing” Had me rolling

As great as she is, the best part is her coworkers breaking during the whole thing 🤣

These close encounter skits are the best. And the fact that it's comedic storytelling and not the typical situational type of comedy makes them even more brilliant

Ryan Gosling loses it every time and I can’t blame him

"I swear to God this little bastard's name was Shart" I'm dead XD

"That felt Super off the books" 😂😂😂

“It wasn’t my worst Wednesday night.”

Kate McKinnon at her absolute best! Her delivery is perfection. Whoever came up with and wrote these sketches is a genius.

Aidy and Kate cannot be put into sketches together 😂 they’re too powerful and always end up cracking each other up

Aidy and Gosling laughing make the first episode the best one .. The writing for Kate’s part describing her privates is award winning 🏆 !

“Pardon me Sharon” gets me every time 😭

"My fun bun and my mud gun" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 her pants somehow get ripped off every time.

FULL PORKY PIGGING IT IN A DRAFTY DOME 😂🤣😂🤣

You know it's great when everyone is trying not to break character 😂

the cigarette makes the character, we used to do that, glad to see her going nationwide with it! real actor!

"Hog taker and log maker!" Oh my God - whose mind did this hilarity come out of! LOL

I love how Cecily, one of the most popular cast members of this generation, known for keeping her cool, maintaining her composer, and RARELY breaks is whispering the lines to Ryan, the ultra-professional 2-time oscar nominated method actor...who is absolutely *LOSING HIS SHIT* 😂😂💀

In every skit they way she goes, “WHAAAT?” She is perfection. 🤣🤣🤣

“I’m fighting off a gaggle of cold snouts” I’m dying😂😂😂

You can tell Kate is having the time of her life, making people lose their crap on a live tv show. She is truly in her element, in these skits!

The “Whaaat?!?!?” In each sketch kills me every time! 😂

“damnit colleen you’re becoming your mother!” 😂😂😂😂 she is THE best. Kate embodies this character “and mind you i’m still rocking zero pants here so my coot coot & poop shoot are on full display!” and ryan gosling breaking … classic.

Ryan Gosling cracking up makes me laugh every time. I'm dying.

I have no idea how much it injured these actors to be laughing so hard that they cried - while simultaneously trying to hold that laugh in.

"Nah it seemed super off the books" I don't know why that kills me so much

“Wow what floor were you on?”

Sketches like this and the Debbie Downer Disney world sketch are so hilarious because one person makes themselve and everyone else involved laugh. That's pure comedy gold at it's finest.

Hog taker and log maker deserved way more of a laugh! 😂😂

“Damn it, Colleen, you’re becoming your mother”

Love the names she uses for her parts 😂😂😂

Aidy kills me EVERY TIME as she delivers lines while furiously trying to hold her laughter. ❤❤

Not dealing with the top brass & super off the books kills me everytime

Cecily Strong is AMAZING; how she can keep a straight face through all of this is AWESOME!

" nooope..... that felt super off-the-books.." *dead* 💀

I think the aliens did the same thing to them all, but Rafferty is immune to the psychedelic anesthesia they gave them all.

I wonder if Ryan gets the outline of the skit but without Kate's dialog... just goes full rogue and crushes him. 😂

“Drainer and stainer” im dying right now ahahaha

I do not know how everyone in this scene keeps a straight face with Kate McKinnon absolutely killing her lines like a boss. 😆😆😆

I've never commented on a video before, but "hog taker & log maker" might be the greatest line ive ever heard

Ms Rafferty is my favourite Kate McKinnon character! If Kate stays we need to see more of her!😂🤣💕💖💝

Hmmm...the dog's soul was lodged in her "right knocker" but when she left the scene she was calming down her left one! 😂

Kate McKinnon's "descriptives" are pure comedic gold!🤣

*_I wish Kate would do an alien abduction movie after all these skits it would be awesome._*

Anyone else imagine an X-Files crossover where Mulder & Scully interview her case of alien abduction? 🚬 🛸 👽

"Porky Piggin' it" gets me every time lol

"Look, wasn't the worst time I've had on all fours" 😄😄😄

“I don’t think I was dealing with the top brass…”😂😂😂😂

*Kate is the funniest person on SNL*

Everyone is trying so hard not to laugh at Kate McKinnon 😂

"... so my hog taker and log maker are on full display!"

Just watching Kate McKinnon being in her character and not saying anything in the beginning made my LOL.

I know this isn't P.C. but so refreshing to see someone smoking.

Kate is one the funniest comedians SNL has ever had. Definitely in the top 5.

These are by far my favorite skits ever on SNL! Kate McKinnon is freaking hilarious 🤣

I don’t understand how ppl can stay in character when in sketch with Kate McKinnom

just when the world needed snl snl comes through

snl it’s my birthday and these are my favorite sketches so i rlly appreciate this

Ryan gosling got me cracking up so hard 😂😂😂😂😂 I couldn't help it

I almost can’t handle how awesome Kate and Cecily are in these.

My hog taker and my log maker were on full display. Best line ever!!

SNL is giving the people what they need today

This will forever be one of my favorite sketches ever! Kate McKinnon is nothing but talent!

She says funniest stuff and her delivery/performance is beyond awesome. Tears of laughter!!!! I put her right up there with Chris Farley. Anyone with me???

This is so hilarious! I love her imitation of CrinkleMouse!!!! HAHAHAAA! Kate can make anyone laugh without trying! Awesome talent!!!!

Hogtaker and logmaker 👏

Yes! I've been hoping a compilation of these sketches would be released.

I'm so in love with Kate OMG she's the funniest human

"The Lord works in mysterious ways." "Yeah, so does _Shart._ " 😮

In years to come, these skits will be the classics, like Belushi and Akroyd.

Here in the UK I don't know all the actors, but how good is this. How is it possible not to totally lose it. How did they ever write this? Fabulous.

I absolutely love this lady (Kate) I swear she cracks me up so much and why is she always missing pants and ppl missing with her knockers 🤣😅🤣

Ryan gosling is one of my favorite guest hosts on Saturday night live

I have watched these sketches SO many times...never gets old.

“I’m still rockin’ zero pants here” kills me every time 😂😂

Watching SNL brings my spirits up.

“Whenever my doorbell rings, my knocker goes crazy” 😂

When they start breaking character, Kate goes for the kill. Love it.

I love Kate McKinnon she is so funny

Ryan Gosling’s reaction is hysterical 😭 😭😭😭😭

Kate is pure genius. Love this woman! "Shart" XD

Cecily never breaks Lor' bless her

Aidy B breaking character kills me everytime.

There are sooo many great comedians...but Kate is a unique gift💗

The first time I ever saw the original skit, when she gets to the line where she says "they start gently battin' my knockers around", I remember laughing so hard I couldn't even breathe. I thought I was going to die in my living room! Tears streaming down my face. Kate McKinnon is easily one of the most hilarious, talented, and iconic cast members to ever take part in SNL. She'll be remembered just like Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, Gilda Radner, Chris Farley, Adam Sandler, Molly Shannon, Cheri O'Teri, etc. Right up there with the greatest of the greats. I miss you, Kate! Come back to host an episode soon, please!!!

The scene doesn't work without that posture. That's Kate McKinnon.

Cooter and tooter!!! Lol 😂

Lol these 2 Cinderellas going to the ball pure genius

Kate McKinnon is a comedic genius!

The ryan episode and Paul rudd fucking gold 😅

‘So I’m showin’ off my hog-taker and log maker…’ 😂😂😂

these skits are my ALL TIME FAVORITE in SNL history 😁🤣🤣🤣

I was so depressed and seriously struggling and somehow these came up,i’ve literally been laughing for the last 20 minutes all because I’ve just binged all these scenes! Thank you! I hope more of these will continue to happen they’ve really ,truly helped! Can you guys imagine if Stephanie Weir was on the show? She would destroy! I love her so much and she should unequivocally be a part of this cast!

OH. MY.GOD...This is absolutely classic story-telling. And done incredibly well. These artists go all the way back to the troubadour. A true master class. How all of them do not lose their shit is beyond me. True comedy genius.

I would never had made it through a skit like this with Kate as Ms. Rafferty......just the look on her face makes me laugh.

Watching everyone struggling not to break character makes this skit extra special 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Aidy slowly dying inside is killing me 🤣
