Lol what choices and risks she literally acting out the skit no risk

Right? She held nothing back 😂😂😂

@@CoryStevens-bc6eyI’m sorry your don’t understand the difference between safe and easy choices and bold and challenging ones. The point is she is willing to fail whereas many other guests on this show play it safe. It’s really not that difficult to understand, clown town.

@@robm6252 wow do you act?

This was one of the most entertaining skits I’ve seen in a long time. Emma Stone is brilliant. Her lip sync session with Jimmy Fallon I have watched 10 times.

you can find videos of her singing at age 12 or so posted by her mom on KZfaq

Perhaps, but nothing like Cass Elliot's.

@@EpoxinatorCass’s voice was so unique that no one could replicate it. But Chloe does a good imitation of some aspects of it.

Nice set of cans too!! ❤

I like Chloe more and more every episode.

Agreed! I'm not into most sketches these days but this one showed some real imagination.

The voice too. Brilliant.

I've watched it about 15 times so far.

Ive watched it so many times it's almost lost its meaning, like the central gag doesnt make any sense anymore, but it's still good! @@ifoxfirei

I’m just in awe

Honestly that alone makes it so incredibly refreshing. Ten years ago I'd never imagine SNL could make a sketch about Cass and be so respectful of her memory.

Why would it be about her weight?

@@averagedayif you’re truly asking and not being sarcastic…..bc Mama Cass was very heavy and it’s been the focus of jokes for 50 years. That she choked on a ham sandwich and that’s why she died, etc. Even in the Mamas and the Papas, Michelle Philips was the classic California beauty, and I remember them talking incredulously about the love letters Cass Elliot got, more than Michelle, despite her presumed unattractiveness, that it was bc of her beautiful voice that men fell in love. They overlooked her weight bc she sang like an angel. Even one of their song lyrics was “and no one’s getting fat except Mama Cass.” So most references to her are jokes about her obesity.

Mama Cass died from heart failure linked to hardcore dieting. To make a fat joke, even after all these years, would be so messed up

@@keegan9965 If you think think this is respectful of the art that's funnier than anything in the skit. Let's bury the 20th century kids, it's been dead more than 20 years. Do skits about the music industry TODAY. About now. Not 40 or 50 years ago. That's just sad.

I think the timing is still something to work out for the new cast members, but it was a good sketch

​@@HoNow222Check out Chloe Troast singing in the Little Orphan skit. She has an amazing voice. Hope she comes back next season.

@@djchino774Ice jj fish is better for sure

She’s awesome

lol

It was a great skit all around, but her strong singing kept it well anchored.

She nailed Mama Cass' voice. I had to look to see if it was Mama Cass' daughter.

I was thinking the same thing. She’s a good singer.

Didn't do her much justice with that southern accent.

it's not very good

Uh, perhaps peak 70's for my generation...

Pretty low bar tonight..

I’m disappointed that you said that, because this is the first video I’m seeing for the night and if this is the sketch of the night, then that’s a pretty low bar. Which is unfortunate because I love SNL.

We all love SNL. That’s why it’s so sad it sucks so hard these last few years.

I think the humor in this sketch is for a very specific kind of person. I personally loved every second of it, but I can see this not being everyone's sense of humor. Emma did fantastic, and Chloe singing always blows me away.

@@rykwon4535 Convinced they put the kiln and band performance sketches in there to make this look better lol

I was hoping Ryan Reynolds would make a cameo here. It's like she was describing a scene from Deadpool.

Tbf, she began doing comedies: her very first movie was _Superbad._

She's mostly a comedic actress

She always does comedy. Tf you talking about

Literally the worst comment I've ever seen.

I get what you mean, but I don't think it functioned as a major punchline or anything. All the big laughs were already had. It was just a tight way to finish the sketch

100% agree!!!

This comment is basically a mini-clinic on sketch writing. Cause you totally nailed exactly why this one works so well.

ANd I think it is THE WORST EVER...and 20 minutes too long

It will never be this deep but it is funny

If they ever make a Phil Spector biopic, they know who to cast.

came here to write this very thing!!!!

But Oscars are for movies.

This is the new cowbell. Holy shit is this amazing.

This was so dope! I’ve never seen a performance from Emma like this. She loved this character!

Don’t compare this with to more cowbell lol. Not even in the same universe

Not as good as Cowbell, perhaps. But, I disagree. This is the sketch everyone will be talking about this season. Which puts it in the same solar system at least.

Someone commented at the beginning before actually watching the sketch lol

​@@rykwon4535 very true

@@Cellogrinder1 It's in the same universe because it was probably written at 3 AM when everyone was tired and slap-happy and throwing random ideas at the wall to see what sticks. The big difference would be that Cowbell was the one in a million gem that is somehow brilliant in spite of how stupid it is, and this was an unfunny mess.

It does sound like something on a Tarantino playlist.

Yes and for the original songwriters and perfomers, and the generation who loved these songs when they were new, a royal pain in the ass hijacking and bastardizing the song's original intent

if ONLY it was funny

This was the worst sketch of the night

​@@jg2722 you're the worst sketch of the night!

@@jg2722You’re insane. This was literally the only sketch that made me laugh.

@@jg2722Thanks for proving my point. This sketch is too smart for some.

Yes yes !! Describes it perfectly 💛🍇

I freaking love Emma, she's so damn funny and silly. She really sells the energy of an insane record producer

She's always impeccable! 😍

Lorne discourages the cast from memorizing their lines because there are a lot of last minute changes.

Thanks for the insight @@MultiNadiam

@@MultiNadiam yeah but the best hosts are the ones who still memorize it so that they can just learn the 15% that changes at the last minute too. Adam Driver, Melissa McCarthy, Emma Stone, Justin Timberlake all perform like the best cast members who can riff without reading the lines (ex. the bronx beat skit with Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Andy Samberg, and Justin Timberlake)

And writers

should have walken come out on stage at the end and open his mouth like he was about to say something, then shake his head and walk offstage

Now if Chloe could do sketch comedy as good as she sings!

Her next song, please.."Me and Bobby McGee"!

I was convinced this was a recording of the original.

Why?

really bruh? so anyone you see holding a cigarette makes you laugh u need help

With all of the props and physical acting!

This isn't her first time killing zombies.

@@Tao_Tology still corny

rare sketch where they knew how to end it

They had two this year. The George Washington skit with Nate Bargatze is on par.

And a real send up of today’s movie tropes. Fun one!

Assume its someone who is a little angry and a Cass fan

Mikey Day, Streeter Seidell, Jake Nordwind and Mike DiCenzo wrote it.

They looks amazing in these vintage outfits

Totally

Amen! Thank you -- I was wondering when someone besides me would mention that amazing physical humor!! Really made the skit happen

also love how his jacket unbuttons at just the right moment

Mikey's slow mo had me in stitches 🤣

Agreed!

Yess!!

Unintentionally?

It’s exactly a reference to Zombies

Wow ya think

Yup. Emma Stone is always good on SNL but this was out of the park!

She and Melissa Mccarthy are the only two that come to mind!

YES!!!

Was looking for this comment!

Even after what John Phillips did?

@@AvaAdore-wx5gg These days? Just put a few videos of yourself singing on KZfaq and promote them.

@Andrew Unique musical creators too often go nuts. Its the power that often gets to them. Not ever a good thing.

@@Andrew-jb2iy yeh he's disgusting and so is michelle gaslighting her step-daughter and stealing the guy mama cass wanted. i still like the group, though.

@@nomadicroadrat it's more than going nuts, he had a long term sxual relationship with his daughter. that's abuse. he didn't 'go nuts' he was a sicko. doesn't change how good the group is.

Nah

She’s very good!

To be fair, it's a weird note to be hitting and your brain's first instinct is to slide into it. Especially with the arrangement being what it is. I think it'd be the first instinct of many vocalists, of which I know a large amount. If she's doing it on purpose, tho.... Then holy canolis, woman. SNL has had many good vocalists as cast members. There's a lot of crossover with music and comedy. But she is particularly good.

Of course it would be accurate, that was documentary footage of future-zombie-movie-soundtrack-artist Mama Cass.

I go back and rewatch the Moon Song at least once a day. It's so ridiculously good. But now it has competition with this!

@@blakefarnsworth omg me too. I love musical skits so I hope Chloe will inspire more of them.

💯

Mikey Day is so amazing

It's great! So excited to see how Chloe continues her career!
