Seth Meyers & Bill Hader's Favorite SNL Memories + Thoughts on Barry Finale & Late Night 

(imo) the best years of SNL was when Seth was head writer The whole cast was clearly having so much fun, it really came through love Samberg's Digital shorts - think I've watched Great Day, Dear Sister and Doppelganger at least 20 times just watched Doppelganger again Meyers screaming "take the shot!" into Forte's ear cracks me up

Is it LIKE that or is it just that?

​@@stevenmathews7621 If you watch the SNL documentary by James Franco, the BTS is so insightful on their camaraderie, the table reads and how Seth just stepped in to improve & elevate the sketches without stepping on any toes without being condescending to anyone involved. It's amazing and really shows how lucky SNL was to have Seth serve as head writer.

Exactly this

Well said

Add Fred Armisten -- the interview with Meyers, Hader, and Armisten at the 92nd Y about "Documentary Now" is just hilarious.

Precisely.. it transcends something great and makes it even greater...ultimately becoming pure magic.

How did I miss this!?!?!

Especially the random Anderson Cooper cameo lol

And Stefons brother too was there, iconicc!

​@@LeniTjahjadiWho is Stefons brother?

Yeah you can tell how much he truly cares about Bill. He looks at him with pride and maybe a hint of concern in his eyes. A true friend.

(As Henry Winkler) *I'M* Barry?

Exactly. It was so good to see Bill acknowledge how much influence Seth has had on him, and how much he has learned from him, and how he uses those skills to this day for his other projects and how it's part of his work ethic. And then to see how proud Seth is, of how far Bill has come and grown into his role as a showrunner, writer and director, with his own distinctive style. What a wholesome conversation to witness. We've had them both in our lives for such a long time, it feels like they're our long-time friends. I'm so proud of both of them.

Yeah I had an "Oh, wow" moment during the finale for sure.

Oh wow!

Man, I'm so behind; I haven't even seen it, yet!

There's no close 2nd place. From the actual writing, to the mix of loving disdain for his writers' bad jokes (Inspections!) to Corrections, along with 2-3 weekly political A Closer Looks that are in oar or better than John Oliver's weekly episode... There's no one close to Seth. Also, best interviewer.... Day Drinking.... Wally getting reps.... Late Night; Last Week; and Some More News are top 3.

@@redolentthought7085yeah it's Seth, Colbert/Oliver and then who cares after that

Mine as well

Idk, I love Seth as a comedic writer and actor, but personally I think Conan was GOAT 🧡🐐

@@jennymulinaro6036 oh for sure

Meanwhile this video I had to crank up to 100% to just barely hear what they are saying

Thank you for your comment, as I know my son ~ who not just "notices" the contribution of the audio to his most beloved movies and video games but LAVISHES and DELIGHTS in how the audio component ~ intensifies the EMOTIONS he feels during that initial (and subsequent) viewings and/or replays. I love good writing, and in particular love the emotional intensity inspired by the visual components of artistic works...I eagerly embrace the "suspension of disbelief" during an initial viewing experience such that I give little thought to such details in those moments...but I love our daily conversations as his passion about such facets which excite HIM is INFECTIOUS. I LOVE to rewatch movies and his input, perspective and appreciation of such facets ~ facets of the whole which I tend to gloss over during my first viewing ~ (as such an analysis would tear me out of the suspension of disbelief and NERF my intense enjoyment of the emotions evoked by visual...beauty) thereafter GREATLY ADDS to my appreciation of the work. I make a conscious choice to NOTICE how the audio adds to the whole and my love for such works doubles and redoubles. I have yet to rent or buy Barry as I am waiting for a boxed set as I love the "bonus material" included in such formats. YOUR COMMENT makes me really happy as, knowing my son, he will likewise ADORE such details during our inaugural viewing of this work. Our differing "viewing styles" do not diminish our respective enjoyment of that magical initial viewing experience as a detailed discussion about such things ~ in the moment ~ would detract from our respective enjoyment....yet I feel the surges of utter JOY he feels ~ in the moment ~ and I KNOW he is enjoying something which I am oblivious to....but which we WILL discuss in the wake of the viewing experience. In my entire lifetime, I've not had a FRIEND who loves movies as do I and it delights me no end to discover that my own son has such a passionate love for the games and movies he loves...and that his perception of WHY such works evoke such intense emotion (in large part the AUDIO contribution) is an ongoing delight. It delights me that the science behind exercising and movement for increased health span and a reduction in all cause mortality and mental degradation as one levels up in life is SOLID...and it's a fact that one is most likely to invest the time if one exercises and WALKS (zone ii cardio) WITH those people you LIVE WITH. He began walking with me because I was dangerously ill and weak at that low point in my life and prior to our daily walks....I had NO CLUE about his passion for many of the topics we now discuss daily. His emotion was infectious and I'm so filled with gratitude that he still loves our daily walks as ~ although I have loved this kid since he was Itty bitty ~ I love him MORE because of the conversations we have some three decades later. He's going to love Barry, I just know it.

Oh you jackal you....
