@@CarlosAntonioMartinez Yes in the episode Plan B, it's on a promo poster for a movie Liz: No! People of the sidewalk, we can't give up on the written word! We need stories! Because I don't have a plan B. I have a degree in Theatre Tech with a minor in Movement. Why did my parents let me do that?! Woman: It's over! Liz: Who's there? Show yourselves! Woman: Better to ask who we used to be. People whose professions are no longer a thing. Once I was called Travel Agent. Blue Collar Guy: I was an American auto worker. Sax Man: And I played dynamite saxophone solos in rock and roll songs. Woman: Come. We live under the subways with the CEO of Friendster.
"You know, some people say global warming is a hoax perpestrated by the Chinese, but I say SHOW ME THE RECEIPS. Because why would Xi Jinping wanna flood my basement and rust my Bowflex? TO WHAT END? TO 🎶 WHAT 🎶 END 🎶 !?!”
Maya Rudolph is so underrated. Even when her characters are zany and way-outta-left-field, she always imbues them with a believable humanity. Her timing is impeccable; and of course, that marvelous singing voice of hers. Give Maya Rudolph more work!
🎶When you break up with Leonard Nemoi. You get a bus ticket to Sacramento, and a case of crab for your momento. Why do I have a thing for spaceships??🎶
Hurricane Tammi with an “i” has already ravaged some of the most beautiful parts of New Jersey: the Solstice Sunglasses Outlet, the Morey’s Piers Wild Mouse Ride, Frank and Maria Spinelli’s gorgeous marble deck..
You guys. I can’t. This is seriously the funniest thing ever, from the writing to Maya’s delivery. The Leonard Nimoy song, “Kathryn Perry,” “gabagoo,” “TO WHAT END” .. I just can’t.
@@AuntieLux I disagree it is so good to start that you wish you had full versions of the songs. I mean don’t you wanna hear a full version of that’s what friends are for with New Jersey specific lyrics?
@@jayblechman2503 I'm not saying that Maya Rudolph is not a GREAT comedic actress - HER version of Dionne is LEGENDARY but it's no where near accurate and that's what makes it so great - it's so bad it circles back to brilliant. I would liken it to Leigh Francis's Craig David...

@@dominicclark3774 Of courseee, I was more referencing the stuff Dionne would post on Twitter although I don’t think I was aware of her time on celebrity apprentice so maybe that’s why. Dionne’s voice on got to be real though will never fail to take me tf out.
@@reprolover11 LOL. ALWAYS NICE TO FIND A FAN!!! Dionne's voice takes me tf out EVERYTIME too lol its perfect. But nah, I wasnt suggesting anything other than a watch if you hadnt seenm it ever. I try to spread guaranteed laughter when i can lol
It's the tiny little things that Maya Rudolph does that make her so god damn funny. Like @0:30, when she says "Nimoy" and moves her mouth horizontally back and forth. She's just so talented at capturing those little intricacies in how people's faces move 🤗
Maya Rudolph can take something as basic and boring as a telethon for a hurricane and made it hilarious. “Why would Xi Jinping want to flood my basement and rust my bowflex? To what end? TO WHAAT END?!” “We’re gonna sing a song that was interestingly enough written by no one. hiT iT!”
I know she's been around for awhile but this was the first time she ever made me laugh my guts out - this is GOLD! She was a pure comedic genius in this episode!
We’re stronger than the hurricane From Piscataway right up to Wayne New Jersey’s gonna be okay Even though Chris Christie floated away Stronger than the surge of the mighty ocean You’ve got to muster up the cour’ge to face all your emotions Reach out, take my hand Get in the boat, buh bye dry land ‘Cause we’re stronger than the storm
i love her soooo much. her whole career she’s challenged the boxes people say only black women can fit in. i know what it’s like to be the only person who believes in you. and now she’s a master of her craft! ❤
Drag race girls,this is how you exaggerate a real person for comedy. Maya looks absolutely nothing like Dionne Warwick and Dionne acts nothing like this,but you know this is supposed to be Dionne without even having them tell you it’s her and it’s absolutely hilarious.
The art of drag is a different medium. You didn't need to write this comment but you chose to anyway for what? Let other people have their fun, no need to be rude.
Jonah, thank you for this! I literally have to watch it at least once a day.....it never gets old. I am forever singing 'When you break up with Leonard Nimoy'! Maya is brilliant!
Maya Rudolph is a genius. She manages to make her characters grounded while still winking at the audience. The tiny little things she does fell simultaneously subtle and like big swings. I’ve watched this video many many times and find some delicious new micro-moment every time. So excited she’s hosting SNL again next week!
