-We have something in common. We're both really good-looking.
No, I'm just kidding.
And Aidy Bryant, actually, our other guest on the show tonight.
We've all got our careers started on
"Saturday Night Live."
-Three "SNL" alums. My gosh. -I was thinking about it.
I go, "that's crazy," because you were 20 years old on --
-I was 20. -You did one season of "SNL"?
-Yes. Arguably the worst season in its history.
They also said I was the worst cast member,
but, come on, there's a lot of competition for that.
-But wait, wait.
I remember that season, because that was, like, you --
Was it Anthony Michael Hall?
-Anthony Michael Hall. -Yeah.
-It was --- Damon Wayans was on it.
-That's right.
-Randy Quaid. -Yes.
-Yeah. Jon Lovitz. -Oh, my gosh.
-There it is.
-Did you -- Were you by yourself in your office
or did you have a roommate?
-Anthony Michael Hall and I
had the old offices of Belushi and Aykroyd.
We asked for a bunk beds with NFL sheets.
-Did you?
-Yeah, we thought, like, just give them a long rider,
like you have a bunch of demands.
They're like, "Yeah, let's give them that.
Now write some funny stuff."
-Yeah. Do anything funny. Yeah.
Did you write anything that ever got on or --
-I -- The only thing I wrote that made it
almost close to air was this ridiculous sketch called
"Suitcase Boy," where I came out with a suitcase
zipped up around my neck and said a bunch of non-sequiturs.
And it was so not funny,
except to me and my weirdo friends.
And I was literally sweating mortar shells.
Don't. -I have a picture.
-Don't. -I have a photo of it.
You're not gonna believe this. [ Cheers and applause ]
"Suitcase Boy."
-That looks more -- a little bit more
like a laundry receptacle.
But, I mean, I say quid pro quo.
You must have had -- You must have had a bunco sketch.
Come on. -Are you kidding me?
Everything I do is perfect.
I was on for six seasons, so I had so many bad ones.
Just, like -- -Give me a stand-out trauma.
-God, there's so many.
Me and Horatio would get together and just like,
"Dude, this just went nowhere."
The worst one, I think, was a thing called --
I had to find it today, because I was thinking about it.
Oh, gosh, it's so embarrassing. -I need it.
-It was called, weirdly -- You did "Suitcase Boy."
We did "Plate Boy and Cup Boy." Dude, it's --
-You win. -Alec Baldwin was the host.
-Tell me you have it. We need something.
-I got -- Yeah, we might have a clip of it.
But Alec Baldwin was the host,
and he's always been great to me.
And he was always like, "Try new things.
And always do this."
So, Horatio could, like, move these cups.
We got these cups once,
and it was at rehearsal.
And he was, like, shaking them back forth,
and all the cups would just kind of fly up
into the air like a tornado.
-Okay. -It was very odd.
And so I went, "Let's write a sketch.
This is really funny."
And, anyways, this is the debut -- it never aired --
of "Plate Boy and Cup Boy."
-Let's see. Maybe it's aged well.
-Mm.
-Gentlemen wants a -- -A what?
-He wants a plate.
Come on, plate boy. Come on.
Hang in there. Come on.
-I get a cup and they put in the Coke
and I give it to you.
Okay, here I go.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy! Oh, boy!
Oh. -Do you hear it?
Like, not even -- [ Cheers and applause ]
I'm sweating. -We're bringing it back.
-Really -- -Wow.
-It's just the flop sweat is coming back.
-Okay. -It was awful.
-So, it was, like, a centrifuge issue or something?
-I mean, looking back, you laugh, but I go,
"Oh, that's awful."
It's fun, right?
'Cause you go like, "I love those --"
-And look at us here now. -Look at us here now.
-Oh, boy! -Yeah, right?
-We must do something right. -Come on.
First alum -- You are the first alum,
"Saturday Night Live" alum, to be nominated for an Oscar
for a lead role -- lead actor.
-Really? -That's right. Yeah.
-Wow. -That's some good triv.
We love -- Everyone at "Saturday Night Live"
loves name-dropping you like,
"Oh, you know, Robert Downey Jr. was a cast member, too."
-Really? -Yeah.
-We used to look at your head shot on the wall.
-Oh, God, maybe I'll drop back by one day.
-Yeah, you'll crash it. Come on.
