SWAP
So I never watch SNL, but apparently there’s a tradition now of the Weekend Update anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che writing jokes for the other to read without having seen the joke beforehand. As you can imagine, they get each other pretty good:
This year’s Christmas joke swap was especially brutal, haha:
Oooooooooooh noooooooooo
So for WHATEVER THE HELL REASON, the phrase “oh no, Mr. Bill” arose from the depths of my cavernous memory this afternoon and so I of course had to see if the old Claymation (and I use that word very loosely) sketches were anywhere to be found on YouTube.
And of course they were.
There’s more, too.
I think my dad had a VHS tape will all the Mr. Bill shorts from SNL on it. I have very vivid memories of watching repeated Mr. Bills on his old TV in the condo.
