Johnny Depp and Amber Heard Trial Cold Open - SNL 

Was SNL ever funny?

@@NyolateAMV yeah when Eddie murphy was there

@@Pack-Man199 and Norm 🙏🏻

@@irishscout you mean Turd Ferguson? 😋😋 oh! no pun intended

@@irishscout rip norm funniest person of all time

Just like the Will Smith slap sketch. It seemed like they rushed it and it was a major fail.

They are not funny. 😢

Similar to the ridiculous media coverage, l think they were told to tiptoe through the tulips. It was dissapointing. I'll stick to watching the real thing

@@BigMac-jr4th just his first year in office is enough material for a decade worth of skits

@@toucansam3 Nah, that one was good. But I agree, this sketch feels rushed

Kenan didn't day that

this made me laugh when the entire sketch could not

It wasn't Kenan who said that and the guy who said it wasn't convincing either .

@@JustinDAMusic Yes. It was.

I agree 100%. So many aspects of the trial that could have been taken word by word from the defense side. Shame on you, SNL!!

They literally could have done that part and added the muffin man song.

Or the My dog steppped on a bee.

The comments are funnier than the skit!.... Please just die SNL.

really, you're watching it?

@@johnbondola3195 Exactly lol

SNL was like, how do we make this funny when it's already funny and decided they would go with not funny. Some writer somewhere was like we could have them find the poop, and then the other writer was like yeah, but should we actually make it funny? And the first writer says, not so funny but more of a funny-esque, we're talking about poop so that will work, we'll get that guy Keenan to be the one who comes in and over reacts to it too because he's silly. Funny-esque.

To their credit, topical+poop+Kenan is a solid backup plan if you're all out of funny ideas. It's just, they went with the backup plan.

Absolutely great comment.

Comment made me laugh more then the vid lol

​@@Equites279exactly

wtf are you saying. this is still one of the worst sketches ever.

I dont understand what the problem is with the sketch, everyone here is vague af

@@Internet_Enjoyerhe’s agreeing with you. He’s saying that this skit is horrible. Re read his comment.

@@michaels9666it’s not funny, and they had sooo much source material to work with and we ended up with this. Did you laugh? I had a straight face the entire time.

Yeeessss! That was hilarious 😂

Have you seen the news articles since AH fired her old PR team. Despite the trial being completely televised, news articles are still on AH’s side.

They don’t even try to imitate Depp, he just says yup and my cleaning lady like he normally would. I wish this show was a joke, that would be funny

@@dzenacs2011 this just isn’t true.

yeah, the really made Heards Lawyers look MUCH smarter than they are in real life lol

Same thought I had.

Is My Music 🔥 Or 🗑??? Let Me Know🤷🏼‍♂️ ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3BHustPK7nI.html

I refuse to watch Tik Tok shit

@@SuperPeterok they have more humor than this

So right!!

Well, what are they supposed to do? A bunch of wokesters now have to do a bit on something that just proves that after all women aren’t always right and men aren’t always part of the patriarchy?

More funnier? Really?

They play a stock audience sound over it, its the same noise every week.

It feels like a topic that you just don’t do if it’s that much of a concern. Like “if you have to ask, don’t”

That’s what they always do

yeh

Yep. Notice they didn't even mention the massive meme opportunity of her dog stepping on a bee? They clearly sht the bed on this one lol

@@ct5625 yeah, and muffins, amica cream, the lot

No, because these are normal people with careers and families and they don’t have time to watch the entirety of some bullshit celebrity trial.

@@joeschmo2784 normal people with families are watching the trial. If it’s your job to make jokes on current events, it would be helpful to actually watch them happen.

I doubt that anyone who believes Depp is watching anything but RU-vid drama channels, memes, and tabloid media outlets seeking the engagement of incels and the bot accounts spreading Depp's PR narrative.

@@carolyntalbot947 That is simply untrue if you actually watch the case. It seems like you are guilty of your own accusations.

@@joeschmo2784 ? I just watched highlights of the trail. Like it ain't that hard to understand what's going on 🤣

This shit is trash

seems everyone is in agreement.. almost 90% of people believe amber heard is a sociopath and her lawyers are awful

Agreed. They could have ripped it up so good, but this wasn't funny at all.

I agree

This show is liberal and will not pass judgment on the woman no matter how delusional she is lol

Yeah was a shitty sketch. Can't believe they open with it.

Agreed.

Facts

“And…the muffins!”

True

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mpOkBNG6Elg.html It’s finally here.

Hahaha, great point. I definitely laughed more while watching the regular trial. Oh, and the "stepped on a bee" Tik Tokers...

Or, another way to put it... that moment when everything else in the universe other than SNL is funnier than SNL.

Including the breaks.

My favorite real line they could have just copied was Jonny’s reaction to the turd! “It was so outside…so bizarre…and so grotesque… I had to laugh”

they took something that was naturally hilarious and made it PC and unfunny

Exactly.

Any news on the Ghislaine Maxwell trial??

I was just about to comment this

Yall repeat the same comments smh

@@MM-qp4pd That case is done. She's just waiting sentencing.

Everything woke turns to sh*t.

@@Noname24675 Bob Lee as Depp.

@@Noname24675 Mad Tv was great! I miss comedy so bad.

🤣🤣🤣

@@goodmorningsundaymorning4533 so woke , but they can still make fun of white people. So annoying. 💪🏼

I ask that question about every skit they do. The shit ain't funny.

@@Silent_Shadow I thought the Sean Spicer ones were good

This show hasn’t been funny since the 90s

SNL, ACLU, Me Too, Feminist Groups all seem to want to ignore this one “exception” where a Man was actually abused until a Jury verdict?? It’s amazing at how stone cold dismissive of reality they are to fit a narrative that was so profitable. It’s not like admitting you were totally fooled by that one co actor in Pineapple Express. I get it; embarrassed to admit they were wrong…kinda like Ambuser Heard.

Sadly. Worst celebrity impersonation I’ve seen in a while, dude looked like Andy samberg and sam Rockwell had a baby.

they screwed up

It's SNL

Because this show is liberal and will not pass judgment on the woman no matter how delusional she is lol

Because that would mean they would also have to satirize Amber Heard... and that of course would be.....patriarchy...🤷‍♂️

you mean the defense who are only doing their JOB

My thoughts exactly. They could have went in so many better/other directions.

I think they might be waiting til a bit later in the trial, just in case, for legal purposes.

I know, right? They really shit the bed with this cold open.

Honestly, the actual trial has so many ridiculous moments that it's tough to satirize it.

maybe this will carry on (being cold open) for a few weeks like the trial

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Yx6pnuZp9EY.html

Funny because they seem like they are both crazy

@@joeb134 Typical of someone who didn't watch the trial. If it wasn't your concern and you had better things to do than to watch it, maybe it is best to not try to have an opinion about it. Otherwise, it just makes people think of you as the weird incel who comes into conversations, out of nowhere, just to be a part of the group.

@@emp5352 Whoo dude. Calm down. Triggered much?

Yeah, this doesn't really feel like something we should make fun of right now

Yes. Spot on.

Boom goes the dynamite. This should be top comment.

They really did and apparently they really are

Yea poo poo skits? Like are we viewers 5?

Yess! 🙌🏼 exactly!

Just curious is coulda short for could of?

Technically it's short for could have

I was so excited..then I am like never watching SNL EVER EVER AGAIN

You could just watch the trial

@@user-pi2lq No, its most definitely not

@@corvey I mean the whole tape excerpt is black and Mexican stereotypes

@@corvey Surprising not

@@corvey Why is that REVERSE racism? It's racism. Reverse would mean anti-racist.

@@corvey every scat video I have ever seen involved 2 white people. Explain that.

Boring.

It’s just SNL is not funny anymore. They haven’t been funny in DECADES. I am so confused as to who laughs or even watches this crap. The writers of this show try way to hard and fail miserably. I haven’t so much as cracked a smile to anything that’s been on this show in the past 20 years.

@@johndough5192 some of their ads are funny as hell, but for the most part, it really isn’t all that funny anymore

yeah its not funny anymore .and i live in middle east..

I was hoping that this will be about Amber Heard or that at least they would make fun of both of them and not just Johny (who maybe deserves a small amount of roast for those smiles but not that much). But no, they disappointed me very much. It's not even that funny. And I'm angry that they made Amber to look like she is the victim. SHE CUT OFF HIS FINGER!!!!

Exactly

I was thinking the same thing

It's like they barely know what's going on. I don't watch the whole trials and I feel like even I know more then they.

I mean... c'mon did they miss the part where the ENTIRE courtroom laughed at her??? Or the one that objected to the answer....of the question HE asked HIS witness?

Purely a coincidence, I'm sure. 🙄

They scared of amber or her boyfriend like musk?

i laughed more at this comment than the video

@@ianlerner6092 and i actually laughed more at your comment. ...jesus, what's up with american comedy. is this it? this isn't it...

@@luxi378 SNL hasn’t been funny for a long time

Big same

Me too

Exactly SNL is so f*cking corny. I just don't understand how they've been on the air this long! it's one of the 8th wonders of the world they're 90% corny and have amusing skits 8% and an actual funny one 2% of the time.

SNL fell off

I wish we still had MadTV it was always better than SNL.

@@irippiri2847 years ago

@@bluecrystalpalace TV PROGRAMMING listen closely to the stories they tell you about first… Jan 6th… Russ helicopters… etc

She was the ONLY abuser in that relationship.

@@BareBandSubscription So throwing glass around and calling your wife "rotting corpse" is not at all abusive? Mr. Depp is a violent person, and he has been for a long time, and this whole lawsuit is just a continuation of that abuse.

Right what a bunch of spineless swine

agreed

The way they portrayed Johnny as someone who makes women want to shit their bed is insane. And the judge saying this trial is for fun instead of justice for Johnny is absurd. The fact they would of slandered johnny without any evidence in the past is what the trial is actually about.... Even to the point of hearsay/slander of Johnny Depp makes women so angry they want to shit in his bed....

Yup! Amber must be getting her stand-coke from the same dealer.

Yep, they are playing safe and was bias and not funny really

I know! Wasn’t funny at all.

That was actually Camille (JD lawyer) saying it every 5 seconds AND* getting them sustained. Camille, the queen of sustained objections 👑 🦙🦙🦙

Johnny's lawyers did that, ya know, the good ones.

Bro nah each time Johnny wanted to say smn he we like “OBJECTION HEARSAY” bro even hearsay his own question 😭

@@NormaLilia24 in retaliation yes.

The fact that you say one set of lawyers said that and not both proves YOU didn’t watch the actual trial

This

The word “more” implies the snl sketch was funny at all

Your profile pic is funnier than this sketch.

yup.

Yes, that bothered me too.

Yeppppppp

Yup shame shame

EXACTLY. 100% agree.

Amanda ? Isn’t her name amber ?

@@444onthefloor whatever lol

it's a grumpy mkay, get it right lol

@@444onthefloor Actually it’s Laura.

Maybe they can’t watch clips of the trial. Maybe their testifying later this week 😂

Right? Amica? Muffin man? My dog stepped on a bee? I mean? 🤔 but go after the victim.

Well all they want to do is make the trial look like a joke. They want us to think Johnny is a joke. It's sad that this is how they deal with a man coming forth about his abuse

@@OneJumpMan33 they're both narcissists. the writers wanted to come off as someone with a life who isn't glued unhealthily to a clown show celebrity trial. someone who only found out about the trial via unwanted recommendations on their social media. anyone siding with either of them needs to focus back on their own life. neither of them are victims and they both deserve each other.

Oh hey Moy, fancy seeing you here

Pc culture and social justice has killed comedy

They must not want to get smacked by will Smith or tackled by some random guy in the crowd

i dont' understand how anyone can get offended by them making fun of amber heard, who not only made JOhnny bleed but cut the skin and bone off of his finger

Well you can thank all of the people that get offended by every little thing that is said.If you watch real old SNL skits man that used to say the funniest shit and yeah it was really controversial but that’s what made it funny! Now everybody gets their panties in a bunch over everything so I can’t imagine what it’s like to be a writer for a comedy show now. So you can’t blame them you gotta blame the little pussies that can’t handle comedy gold

SNL in a nutshell over the last couple years. Seen high school comedy troops do better

The only thing about this video that made me laugh was scrolling down and reading your comment.

Exactly my first laugh with 30seconds left in vid

Ha 🤣😂

👑👑👑

Underrated comment!! 😆

True if this was the other way around best believe they'd go all out

Sad but true. Amber and her team are a comedians wet dream! I can't believe this is the skit they settled on. Cringe lol

Yes, it’s says they were able to craft a sketch around this Suit without relying on misogyny or ableism and still poke fun at both sides.

I love have loved most of Depp's movies and, while fan might be a string word, I'll say I'm a fan none-the-less. But... Both of them come off as terrible people.

@@annward7794 In other words comedy is dead at SNL, also water is wet

They must have gotten acting classes from the same woman Amber Heard did.

And thats being generous

Because people don't watch SNL anymore

I honestly thought the exact same, could of been done at drama class in 4th year made up in an hour and acted out the next hour. Honestly these comedians need to stop getting paid so they need actual good material

That's not fair no matter what they did it won't be funnier than the trial

I'm surprised they did it at all.

Are you the kind of person that walks through a contemporary art gallery going, “I could’ve made that”?

True

@@Monicalala No, usually I'm thinking: "my kids could have painted that square inside a square" Are you the kind of person who comes up with the most non sequitur possible reply to post on RU-vid?

Oh they probably watched it, and are spinning it for Amber, being just as deceitful as she was. They’re just trying to make it funny and failed. This ain’t funny, it’s pro-Heard propaganda spinning a false narrative. Her putting crap on his side of the bed when he asked for a divorce and smashing his finger off were only the tip of the iceberg of her abuse, and they’re trying to pretend even that was his fault..

Heard’s lawyer coining the phrase “mega-pint” Elon Musk nope-ing out of the whole mess even though he was originally scheduled to testify for the defense Heard most likely doing coke while on the stand Heard’s constant doodling and random staring

Yeah. The TikTok voiceovers of people reenacting the dirty carpet scene with the jar of cocaine were funnier than this skit lol. SNL writers tried too hard not to offend Amber's side (had no problem portraying Johnny as a smarmy villain though, strangely) and it completely takes the humor out of it bc this trial is so iconic BECAUSE of how one sided it is and watching a pathological liar (Amber) at work. You can't just ride the "very fine people on both sides haha poop funny" punchline. In doing so, they made a mockery of the real victim, but were too scared to even cast someone to play the abuser.

-Amber Heard posing for a crying photo on the stand with her new PR manager -Johnny Depp getting angry at his lawyer for eating his gummy bears -Mr. Rottenborn asking a witness about Johnny Depp's penis -Alpacas

Oh and the vaping witness who drives away during his deposition

-“good morning mr. ROTTEN-BORN” -Elaine going off on a rant about ambers “p***y while questioning witness - “his eyes were bLaCk!!! They were BLACK!!@!@!” -Witness who vaped in the car and started driving away - 1 million alpacas 🦙 -Ambers insane facial expressions/bad acting movie monologue-like testimony - fake crying/Patting forehead instead of eyes with a dry tissue

agreed could have done better..with that hysterical bad performance amber gave on the stand

This comment is funnier (and more on-point) than anything in the skit.

This was a HORRIBLE cold open! And your line here was much more funny than their entire skit. Kudos.

调和油

Na it's great

That’s how they do it. That’s the only funny part of this whole skit.

Isn't that with every SNL skit?

@@deltafour1212 nope there's a lot of funny snl skits. I respect that not every one is going to be a hit. Especially disappointed with this one though

@@deltafour1212 Hell nah

@@cjg1029 You have more respect for every skit than I do. I expect them all to be not funny and shocked when one of them finally is. I finally just stopped watching SNL and among other reasons

The writers shouldn’t have even PICKED UP the ball! In fact the ball is too big for them. This makes them look so small. DO IT RIGHT OR LEAVE IT ALONE.

This comment is actually funnier than the video…

This needs more likes

They didn't copp out, they crapped out.

this joke was better than the whole sketch!

expression don't you I said yes I do ☺️😜🤣

Underrated reply

Touché

Amber Turd*

Brutal, yet true

And with that, some random RU-vid comment just one upped the entire overpaid writing cast of unfunny snl.

Based samus poster

👍👍😜

🤣

"my dog stepped on a bee 🥴... and johnny never hit mee"

Legally they couldn’t 🥹

they gotta be careful about abuse claims

@@dalnim4294 She said that?

didn't seem like they were defending amber Heard, seemed like they called her a crazy bitch who cuts off fingers and poops on beds and also that Johnny probably has a history of pissing off crazy bitches. I think they nailed it right in the head, sorry it was too abridged for most, not everyone watches the trial.

Yeah that's the most WTF part here. It comes off as bitter and delusional.

I guess they were too frightened to have someone impersonate Johnny Depp too? WTF was that?

What if that fake ver turd started pooping on screen to make it look more realistic 😂😂😂

Everyone keeps saying Kate, but I think Melissa would have nailed those crazy facial contortions. 🤪 But no, they cast her as.....the Spanish speaking housekeeper? LOL.....what an insult.

Same, this sketch had so much potential

you cant make fun of something thats already bananas

@@last7509 yet countless others have been able to make the material available funny on their own with much more work put into it. For example the person who is making ace attorney scenes out of trial. Making new models, artwork, and animations either from scratch or from reference. They dropped the ball hard for sure

I stopped watching at 2:24. No particular reason or joke, just knew it would suck

Who even watches this show, honestly? Their jokes are so cringe and the fact they had so much material to work with.

🎯

Only when Lorne Michaels drops dead will this long-useless show finally be gone too.

SNL is a great show so many unforgettable skits , dobt let this one ruin the past 40 years , when Lorne passes they will keep going and they should maybe a new vision for the future is just what they need

Thry cant quit, they still have agendas to push

From the comments the millennials want to deplatform SNL too - a great icon of comedy. Yeah TikTok the Chinese spyware platform is the only great source of humor. so ridic.

This comment! YES. Johnny Depp is the biggest movie star of our generation. SNL is the biggest letdown of our generation

"speculated that his cat could've conducted Google searches," PLEASE tell me more about that part?!

Dying 😂😂😂😂" speculated that his cat could've conducted Google searches"

@@empressofawesome7099 lol the lawyer was trying to put suspicion on Google trends.

SNL never puts out good content and this is included, but I don't think they were saying DV is fun. The fact is, the trial is an absolute shitshow, and people are watching it like they'd watch the superbowl. It's disturbing and there's nothing wrong with pointing it out tbf

Yeah because making fun of SA is hilarious /s

I refuse to watch Tik Tok

@@SuperPeterok no one asked you

There are memes of the trial funnier than this sketch.

Nothing about a domestic abuse trial is funny

Nah, if Kate played Amber, it would have make Kyle's casting as Johnny look even worse. Poor Kyle looked like the high school play version of Johnny Depp.

Agreed, but then again, Kate would have killed it even playing Johnny.

She CAN next week

She won't...she/her is scared 😱

After the verdict maybe
