Smorgasbord - SNL 

Exactly...Something like that 👍😂😂😂😂

spot on

This is way too dramatic for Finns.

Haha, nailed it!!

Except that Finns are not Scandinavians.

ja

ja

***** It is, but the days have begun to get longer, plus now that it is February, the sun actually shines now and then. Things are starting to look up.

Ja

Linda Vuorenvirta Jå

He's dying too

@@Zormac 😂😂😂

@@Zormac We are all dying.

Its a comedy skit. It shouldn't be taken seriously. 🙄🤦‍♂🤷‍♂

@Aileen Zhao Yah ::stares at you longingly then turns away, also longingly::

@@joshgellis3292 Yet you're invested in a comment on said video. The eye roll is returned, friend.

​@@joshgellis3292 DAY. INTERIOR. SNL WRITER'S ROOM. CAST GATHERED AROUND TABLE WHICH IS FULL OF ASSORTED FOOD. Seth reads your comment aloud on a laptop as Scarlett sits beside him. Seth (In SWEDISH ACCENT): "They speak the truth, Scarlett, unfortunately. Nobody takes it seriously. Scarlett, looking forlorn and despairing, looks over her shoulder at a pair of birds on a bush outside the window. Camera speed slows as the two birds flutter and nuzzle each other lovingly. Dramatic, sad music plays. Scarlett: "Ja". Camera pans over slowly, showing SNL cast chatting and laughing, eventually revealing Bill Hader asleep in his chair. Cut back to Seth and Scarlett, who are now staring at him. Seth discreetly reaches for Scarlett's hand under the table, but she pulls away. Cut to Kenan. "What do you think, Seth?" Seth (nervously): "Um... Yeah... I think that's a... that's a good idea." The cast continues bantering inaudibly. Close up of Seth and Scarlett sitting side by side looking ahead. Seth, quietly, while continuing to look ahead: "Life imitates art, doesn't it, Scarlett. Scarlett nudges Seth's arm discreetly, smiling awkardly. Scarlett sighs and stares into the distance wistfully. Seth: "A lot of good food, wasn't it." Scarlett, also softly and looking ahead, but looking sadder now: "Yeah. A smørgasbørd." Seth gulps nervously Seth: "Ja." Scarlett (voice breaking) "Ja." END SCENE

Any hair is a good look for Scarlett

​@@friendlyneigborhoodbean Toupée uhm I mean touché, good sir.

Ja.

She looks hot wearing a roadkill skunk as a hat

Not sure she could wear something that would make her unattractive

Elīna Skutele I want to be an actor and only play roles like that for a living

Safe bet he could do the best Swedish accent between the three of them.

Elīna Skutele I wanted to play a sleeping fairy queen in a Shakespeare play at school I had chronic fatigue at the time it was very easy I literally had a nap and managed to wake up at the right time also he did a bloody good job because he didn’t laugh once and he wasn’t able to hide under the covers to laugh I was impressed

No he does not...

Ja

yes

+KaregoAt that was what i was thinking.. very german

exactly! its so fucking stupid.

+KaregoAt Because you guys sound like germans when you speak english.

Haha... is it that bad :)

😂

me: is that andy samberg?! 😍😍

it should be spelled "smörgåsbord"

JÅ

It's actually a Latin character (not letter) and Sweden used it first, then Norway implemented it and then Denmark. So it's should either be credited as Latin or Swedish, not Norwegian-Danish

We (sweden) copied it from Germany, who copied it from Turkish. But it is a letter in the Swedish language, not just a character.

It’s almost like it’s a comedy show, and not an anthropological documentary.

Reminded me of a muppet! 😂🤪

Andy and Scarlett what a weird combinations lol I love it

I love that they gave him over-the-top fake rubber hands so that they can match up with Swedish Chef's unique, bare human hands.

the hader effect is real 😆

He’s being SNL’s Bill Hader at the height of his powers. He didn’t need to do ANYTHING and he would make us laugh. GoAT!!!!!!!!

DeJayHank she’s half danish

And Johansson is a Surname from sweden.

I Think Carlsson is more common

Half danish not swed

@@bestpsymusicbest2607 wouldn't be Johanssen? Son = sen in danish

And strangely sexy.

It's "Ja"

@@KaliMaShaktiDevi neh, ja is dutch for yes. And its pronounced slighty different, but almost the same.

@@axolotl-guy9801 Ja is also yes in Swedish, Danish and Norwegian

@@fawkingtrevah5414 aha of course lol

speak louder and look angry

and spell the s like a Z.

The same way

Exactly the same, their names would also be the same....

Same accent, brown hair instead of blond.

Det låter som Fred Armisen och han är ju hyfsat bra på accents. 👌

@@Ingoivalde just found out it’s a Andy Samberg

I think the voiceover was Steve Higgins (not sure but sounds like him to me!)

He sees the number of pages. "Are you sure?"

+Gist432 this sounds like german cuz im from sweden

jah

What they did wrong is they made it sound monotone with 'ze'-sounds. Monotone is usually stereotypical Russian and or German. The Germans have the ch/sch (ghhh/shh-sounds) and the Dutch have the GGGGG-sounds. The Swedish have the oh-ah-uh-oeh-iuhoeuauh-sounds and the Polish have the schka scchhhwwzz and oi-sounds. Basically, what Scarlett said around 1 minute "'Cause, I'm all he has" would sound like; German; Caz, I'm ahl he haz Russian: Cuz, I'm al he hasz. Dutch: Cus, ahm all he has Swedish: Co-oz ah-jm oll hii ha-as Polish: Cooshwz hhaj am all whe haszj' - You're welcome -

+Widdekuu91 the Polish one would not sound like that

No Norway look like us

hahah eller hur. relaterbart

goddamnmaddog They're saying that since it is in Sweden, and the sun is not up as long, saying that it way take five days, to get 45 minutes worth of sunlight.

Axel Agdur Måste ha varit ett riktigt bra år för 45 minuter sol-ljus att bara vara 5 dagar

Axel Agdur sounds like a dream tbh! I'm Australian and would kill for a little less sub! It doesn't get dark here until 9pm atm.😑

Well then don't come here in the summer time // a Mongolian (obvious sarcasm)

Kate McKinnon's Swedish accent is pretty good.

Honestly can't say I have

You'd have to actually talk to people first.

German and Scandinavian are the same. Quit splitting hairs.

Because no one cares that much

?

the accent is German, not Swedish.

DrJW look up any interview with Agnetha from ABBA. That's a proper Swedish accent.

***** no, but the accent they've put on in this sketch clearly is.

DrJW lol, of course not. I don't think most people got the joke. Oh well.

Koutetsu Jeeg ya that's the point

With the dead fish?

Yes, my sexual tension in trying not to jack it when I see Scarlett Johansson.

@*_vanessa_* how did you read my mind?

Weird cause she’s now engaged to Colin Jost, Seth’s replacement on Weekend update

Nei, da.

So do I and I'm Norwegien and that is one ugly bunad. What area does it come from Selvmordfjord?

D-7 loll

Is Harrison Fjord from Norway?

Guleböj?

Wellll, "talent of the highest sort" is given her way too much credit. Im sure if she wasnt attractive you wouldn't or couldn't possibly believe that, not that she can't act but shes no Meryl Streep or Cate Blanchette

@@yvie914 Meryl Streep is an extraordinary actor, but she picks such boring characters to play. I recognize her talent, but I have no interest in watching anything she's in just because she's in it. Cate Blanchette, on the other hand, chooses extremely interesting characters. She inhabits them fully and you BELIEVE that she is that character. I will watch something just because she is in it. What's the difference? OK - maybe it is that Cate is much more attractive (to me) than Meryl. That doesn't make her a better actor, but it makes her more marketable. To people like me, I guess. So, perhaps I am interested in watching Scarlett Johansson because I find her attractive. But I also find her characters interesting, and I think that is the tipping point. I can't apologize for being attracted to women; I am hard wired that way. In the entertainment industry, the word 'talent' has several meanings, and attractiveness is one of them. So I stand by my comment.

@@badbiker666 ok, I can understand fully and agree. But the one flaw that Scarlett has is that she doesn't yet have the talent for picking roles that could showcase her talents like she did when she 1st came on the scene. But I am a fan regardless, even if it's a Fairweathered fan. Cate ...ill watch her on the weather Channel if she's on it.

@@yvie914 she hasn't played anything interesting to me in ages because she's too busy just being the one broad next to Thor. simply my opinion, of course. so i agree with you that she chose better projects years ago. and Cate is Brilliant.

Scarlett Johansson is otherworldly beautiful and sexy. She is also one of best hosts of SNL ever.

hahaha jaaaa

Har en bekant som konstant skriver på sociala medier att det är "läckert i kuken". Det betyder tydligen att han lagat god mat eller nåt på Holländska 🤷

@Ralph Yes just a bit. They sound nothing like Raul the Busboy on "Seinfeld."

The meat is balled.

+Kimono The norwegian alps? :)

+Stormwern yes😀! Ever heard of sunnmørsalpene? I have the same view from my window as the window in that scene😜

+Kimono no you don't. And nobody has ever heard of "norwegian alps". The tallest mountain in norway is 2469m. Thats just sad.

+Kimono haha, , finskradiotheater ja. Like dunkle minner som Pompel og Pilt ^_^

+Thelavendel you should see the norwegian alps before you say anything.. And yes its called the norwegian alps - but thank you for being a know it all 🙄😂

no one can pull off a REAL swedish accent in american movies and tv, it always come out german or dutch -.-

true

Vladica Micanovic Mostly (poor) German.

Vladica Micanovic i know and it's not even funny, i live in sweden and the sterotypes they have in america when it comes to sweden are so weird

To be fair, you only can if you're Swedish.

Hmmm Sweden...

You mean swedish winters

@@pashadyne No, Bergman is funnier.

@@pashadyne I'd suggest trying A Lesson in Love or Smiles of a Summer Night for the comedic Bergman, but the thing with Bergman is that his themes are simply no longer compelling to present day art house viewers. Haven't been for decades. Bergman themes such as adults' struggles to come to terms with (forgive) the harsh parenting of their mothers and fathers, the silence of god, death, humiliation of infidelity, etc., don't jibe with the "find the courage to be yourself!" ethos of much identity politics-infused indie filmmaking today. BUT the films remain beautifully crafted time capsules of how mid century Existentialist themes could be staged and narrativized.

It's more like Henrik Ibsen.

Object of merriments 🤣🤣🤣

When I look at written Swedish or Norwegian, the umlauts seem quite arbitrarily placed. I think your beef may be with Vikings who came up with it.

@AnMal 01 Although you have not completely convinced me that "umlaut" is the wrong word here, I thank you for your input and shall look into this some time.

same

Why would you be disappointed? That's like the funniest thing about the whole skit.

Wtf is a scandinavian accent?

@@Mantorok Something that atleast reminds of either Norwegian, Swedish or Danish. Like then TV personalities from one of the Scandinavian countries visits an other they try to sound more like that language while they still speak their own language.

@@Mantorok The Swedish Chef. Alexander Skarsgård. Stellan Skarsgård. Bill Skarsgård. Gustaf Skarsgård. Valter Skarsgård. Pick one 🤷

Well I’m half French and I can’t do a French accent for shit and ik I’m not a world renowned actress but I don’t think your ancestry automatically makes you good at accents lol

Faktiskt..

She's Black Widow and Ash the Porcupine!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗💗

yeah and scarlett johnansson is ok too

+Calum Sanderson yeah thats what annoys me too! This accent is more like some kind of German accent! And we spell it smörgåsbord, the ø is danish😛

+Calum Sanderson yeah I'm Australian and don't usually care if people do the accent badly I just find it funny 😂😂

what is a swedish??

flisko I hope you figured it out in 2 years smh

flisko it’s a fish I think

You're smart that's why.

Ja.

lrozenwater Ja.

haha, jag kunde inte komma på vem han liknade, han är ju sjukt like André xD

X-D X-D

😂😂🙈

Are you seriously saying that racial stereotypes are boring`? They didnt say it was swedish you moron. they said scandinavian

***** so which of the scandinavian countries talk english with a german accent?... sense, fuck it

***** Well they continued to say swedish(the commercial etc), and the food is swedish! Not Norwegian or Danish(the rest of scandinavia).

***** Maybe they didn't but it is strongly implied. Smörgåsbord is a swedish word, it's called koldtbord and something similar in danish. So, get your facts straight, "moron".

Hilde Klokkerud As if the Bergman connotations was not enough.

Your profile name and picture cured my genital herpes

Komm' jetzt: wir Nordic Leuten koennen wohl ein paare Witzen auf unsere Kost erleiden, nicht? Nehm' nicht Alles so ernst . . . andere ethnische Gruppen lachen auf ihre Eigenartigkeiten auch--die Italiern, die Iren . . .

Indeed, Surströmming sound delicious...

Oliver john Kallesoe no one cares

if no one cares how come you care so much to give me an answer are YOU no one

Oliver john Kallesoe Fucking butthurt Scandinavians, man.

Oliver john Kallesoe what food lol

How can anyone bitch about the inaccuracy of an accent spoken by fictitious people, I mean sure they are obviously inspired by ancients scandinavians and/or nordics but they could speak hebrew and be perfectly accurate :)=
