I mean this was great but Bill Hader is still #1

Liam ensen He’s not on the show though. This sketch is 2 great impressionists and 2 people suggesting that they’re impersonating other similar-sounding people.

@@lermberl Bill Hader is probably the type to hate comments like this.

Exactly right

Melissa & Kenan are fucking amazing.

Yeah, she's a voice actress/impressionist.

It's like her voice is a distinctive character, too. But I've noticed that she actually has a more nondescript voice that she can switch into when she's being more serious. If you watch her America's Got Talent, she dials it way down.

Its kinda strange that both melissa and bill hader are great impressionists but have a weird natural voices

And yet they horrendously underuse her....

Her Owen Wilson impression is my favourite EVER......WOW!

how about julia louis dreyfus though ?

@@pigsonwings her Julia wasn’t dead on, but it was reminiscent enough

@DragonChild460 might have led to her never being on SNL, so maybe things happen for a reason

What about the so called j lo impression?

Yes!! She’s such a treasure

I want one where Kate and Melissa swap bodies and spend the whole sketch impersonating each other and doing each other's impressions!

@@EricaGamet so basically just a Freaky Friday sketch

@@midniteblud Whatcha gonna do, it's a switcharoo!

NOW I NEED THISSSSS

@@EricaGamet would love to see this

Roger Plummer

Her Owen Wilson wasn't all that great tbh

@@coastaku1954 your capping right

Her Kathy Griffen was spot on too

She's an amazing impressionist and voice actor. If/when Melissa leaves SNL, now that she's famous she can have a tremendous career as a voice artist, doing voiceovers, commercials and animated films. That's a wonderful thing: you never age out of it, and you can work from anywhere.

She did a few impressions in the sketch where she's in bed with Aziz Ansari and he tries to "spice things up" with role-playing. It was really funny. And these days, you never know if an snl cast member will be on the show for a decade (or more) or for just one season.

@Lifted Sailboat I agree. I just saw her do solo stand-up in NYC now that SNL has a few weeks off. She had some pretty good material, but the dude who opened for her (who is not famous but has been grinding out a career as a stand-up for 15 years) blew her away in terms of confidence... and laughs. Melissa is clearly *not* on the writing team @ SNL; unlike, say, Tina Fey (who was hired as a writer and worked her way off the writing desk to be on on-camera star) Melissa is relying on other folks to write her SNL material. If she were a writer, too, she'd get more time on the show.

The Wiig one made me want to choke her with a dead cat.

@@bmarkrundle What?

Her Kristen Wiig impression was terrible. I didn't want to punch her at all.

@@JustinCoasters get out.

1 Thousandth like for the comment

All of hers were damned good

Melissa Villaseñor is very good at impressions.

zoozbuh YESYESYES

I want to know Kate's opinion on it.

zoozbuh she is way way overrated

Hmmm...I thought I heard a touch of Christopher Walken in it.

I only wish she had more lines of it. That really was flawless haha

Yeah her dolly parton is AMAZING! One sketch i seriously thought she was lip syncing to a recording but it was really Melissa's voice , incredible!

Yeah, it's like she's never herself. Which is why she isn't funny.

@@Bubbles-od2tv I personally think she's very funny but to each his own

Her Mickey mouse is so effortless...but the impression that has me gasping for air is her SIMS characters...

I just recently got into SNL a little over a year ago and I thought she was always doing the same character voice until I realized that was her actual voice ☠️😅😂😂

I love seeing her in sketches! I love her energy. I wish I were that cute. And I'm lowkey in love with her voice

Or Kate McKinnon.

Its easy because Kirsten Wiigs humor is very predictable and boring. Its much harder to troll good comedians like Bill Hader.

@@cobrax236 boring?? You go to hell.

Nah that impression was too good. If anything it was honoring her

@@cobrax236 opinions, I love her.

Jana Lodahl yes! the little chuckles made it.

Jana Lodahl yup, amazing

It reminded me of Kristen Wiig´s SNL skit with Lindsay Lohan, phone rings and she always answers WHO IS THIS?!

Jana Lodahl on point

ON POINT

😌

yeah, for a second I thought Kate did a voice over there

I liked Owen. lol All the rest were good, too.

Emmy Janina P

Owen is a Melissa classic, she did the impression once on SNL already... btw check her KZfaq channel, it's full of impressinos

To Be Kristen Wiig, She needs to be 25 minutes longer and talk about nothing ala Lola Bunny.

Hew kinda looks like him a bit too

Ugh he nails the impression but he gets so little credit!

@@theeleanorshellstrop he is so so talented snd nobody gives him enough credit

Terribly sorry....

Melissa V steals the shut out of this skit.

Ryan Pfeiffer she did it on a sketch in the Aziz Ansari episode

Ryan Pfeiffer I don't know how she does it but she makes a face that make her look like Owen while she's doing the voice that makes the impression that much better.

Ryan Pfeiffer I don't know how she does it but she makes a face that make her look like Owen while she's doing the voice that makes the impression that much better.

Ryan Pfeiffer she also did in "Bedroom" with Aziz Ansari

Ryan Pfeiffer She was on point with all her impressions!!! 😲😲😲

Super_D991 IKR!!! She’s amazing

Super_D991 she's amazing I've watched her stand ups her yt vids even her podcast and to see her on SNL is just amazing

Racist af tho

She's awesome

@@MasonLyttle how?

NOOTCH!

When she started poking her head around, we knew she had her co-star down.

I’d pay 5 or 6 bucks to watch that.

She probably did

She was good, and then somehow Kate MacKinnon herself said the word bat. Like, I did not know that that was so essential to the Kate impression. 🤯

too bad she's racist

Linda Dlamini how?

@@floraLi13 bro? How?

@@raisinnotnice www.buzzfeednews.com/article/marcusjones/melissa-villasenor-racist-tweets

@@floraLi13 none of that was really racist. The mexican one was close, but shes Mexican herself. Also the one about laughing with jolly black people was actually kind of sweet.

I was literally searching for someone to mention it!!

Noticed it right away. Lol

Spot on!!!

I KNOWWWWWW!!!!

No kidding! First Hugh Grant impression I've heard and it was just spot on!

Marquel Darbey yup..looks like Bobby moynihans gone now too with his own CBS show soon!

Not much of a skit. Just a way to let their cast members do impressions.

Sea Pig Thank you, Captain Obvious

Carlos Rosa OP said this skit was good. I disagreed. Great comment though. Never heard that one, Captain Oblivious.

Sea Pig OP must have deleted his comment before I came upon your yours. You're a good sport.

And Alex Moffat and Octavia Spencer and Kenan Thompson and Beck Bennett

Pretty darn gd tho

Ummmm....KATE MCKINNON?!?!

My favorite was the Kristen Wig one. She really got that laugh down.

Her impressions were spot on, especially her Jodie Foster one.

@@noneyabuizness You could shut your eyes and swear it was Jodie Foster herself.

Melissa versus Penelope SHOWDOWN

Gilly's daughter, Schmilly?

Yesssss

WE NEED THIS!

Or the long lost fifth Maharelle sister from the Finger Lakes shows up out of nowhere: Djaneene, twin sister of Dooneese. But Djaneene has very large arms and hands, as she tried to absorb her sister in the womb. Will they part ways and never see each other again? Or start performing as a musical duo: Sisters in Arms.

She probably copied how she acted behind the scenes.

Randy H. She is very funny but her main talent is impressions so she’s limited on the show

LOVE her!

Impressions are perhaps the most versatile talent in SNL. Bout damn time they give her a reoccurring bit on Weekend Update

Randy H. I can not agree. She is very limited

I absolutely love Melissa Villaseñor

Flazé Da I love your name!

Flazé Da she did it in the bedroom skit

Flazé Da come on chin strap!!!

WAKE UP PEARL

Plus the line she read was perfect, a single sentence that accurately embodies her

The Kate was fantastic but holy shit the Kristen was like she was actually in the room...

All three are SNL cast members (JLD was in the cast in the 1980s. She got overshadowed by Eddie Murphy and Joe Piscopo).

@@canaisyoung3601 And soon Melissa will be able to impersonate them all, in a one-man SNL show

Emm98 lol they definitely just put this sketch together so Melissa could show her talents.

Lone Wolf Dana Carvey did Dennis Miller and i don't think he was much of a big shot.

Lone Wolf Dana Carvey did Dennis Miller and i don't think he was much of a big shot.

He was very popular at the time, though he never could translate that to post-SNL success.

and you make kenan laugh

Grendel Sloth it's melissa villaseñor. she has an awesome youtube channel

Grendel Sloth she's not new she's just not in enough skits

Grendel Sloth If I remember correctly, she got really far into America's Got Talent for her impressions.

+Keyvy Key This is her very first season. Melissa joined the cast in September 2016, Episode 1 of Season 42 as a featured player. In what sense is she "not new?"

Adam Bielski she does on her channel

Mee too! I literally look for this comment on each of his videos.

Alex Moffat 💜

Not my cup of tea

gay

Kris Chillinsky how can you not be gay for Alex

But why?

There is a Danish zoo project that has had a copyright on the name since 2013 I think

UK can't top Czech Republic with this though: Moana in US, Vaiana in Czech Republic. o.O

learn how to read

Kareem Abdul Lavash It's actually Vaiana everywhere in Europe, I believe...outside of the US Vaiana is the norm bc there was a porn star and a cologne named Moana overseas

beck's Javier Bardem is hilarious

Great Job find just about anyone else? Dude has been coasting since All That

damn vro

Yeah, he's not funny and has no range at all. Why they use him so much, I don't know.

Get about 20x better.

He is pretty much Mr. SNL right now.

Nope. Her actual voice sounds like she's doing...a weird voice.

I rate her own voice 8/8 m8, would totally smash.

Keith- Who rates things out of 8?

I love her voice- nothing better than being unique in showbusiness

Caprizonica- being unique isn't always a good thing, especially when your voice sounds like "Pat" from the old SNL skits with Julia Sweeney.

Yea i thought she was ugly at first but she's kinda cute......her voice on the other hand😒

She's like a female Ray Romano!

Yeah she is.

I'll take "things I wouldn't describe as 'cute'" for $800, Alex. But in all honesty, I am pleasantly surprised by her range so far.

Boost4Life i don't know. I'd say in right way.

Yeah the 50th anniversary show should just be the best impressionist in the shows history (villaseñor, wiig, hader, pharao, Carvey, fallon, Hammond, killam), hell throw in a few wild cards in there like Adam Sandler, Andy samberg, rob schneider (Elvis), Jim Breuer (Joe Pesci etc), Fred armisen (Tarantino, prince etc) Abby Elliott (zooey deschanel, Anna faris etc), will Ferrell, will forte, Jay mohr, mike Myers, Vanessa Bayer (for her Aniston), Amy poehler (her Sharon Osbourne), Maya Rudolph, Jason sudeikis, doing an impression marathon (yes I'm an impression fanatic)

Shh...

Why you gotta give away trade secrets like that?

Yeah, she was mrs. Otterton

*very
