Ick, though Martin Short would be a very good Scrooge!
Who played Scrooge he sounded familier
Squirm bringing in the body horror is excellent.
This is beyond SNL Gold this is SNL Platinum, Diamond this is as good as it gets. I literally thought I was watching a New Christmas Carol movie at the beginning of the sketch. Somehow I got distracted during SNL, then this started. I was like is this still SNL? quick answer yes, then I see Martin Short, I'm thinkin' this could be funny. He was quoting all the Dicken's dialogue, totally on point, I know this book, & the 1951 Allistair Sim movie classic so well. But of course, the genius of this skit, just goes off the rails, could not stop laughing, especially when you know the traditional story, this deserves & Emmy award, as one of the greatest skits of all time. First half of the skit The 3 Amigos meet Dicken's A Christmas Carol, to OMG!!! Monty Python's runaway runaway……… jesus christ!!!! A Christmas Carol, the 1st coin toss, I thought ok that's terrible & funny disturbing. And then things continued to escalate, the humor was sooooo good, oh the blood, Steve Martin with such dry wit humor, & Martin Short traditional over the top Dicken's. Those poor blind orphans, Tiny Tim, I mean come on when Short tosses down one single little innocent coin & it ricochets hitting Tiny Tim's crutch & he falls in the sewer, and few seconds later then he gets hit in the head by the headless horsemen & falls back down the sewer 😆😆😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. When Steve Martin, says "here kid put some ice on it" & then he throws the an icicle impales the kid with an icicle another jesus christ!!! moment, & because no one can see Steve Martin because he's a ghost, they all blame "Scrooge" Martin Short for his cruelty & carnage, could not stop laughing. The dialogue, the acting & interplay between Martin & Short was pure genius priceless. I can not praise this masterpiece enough, when I'm down or depressed, this will cheer me right up. Well like Scrooge says, "I guess we all learned a very fine lesson Merry Christmas everyone" 😆😆😆😂😂😂😆😆😆😂😂😂😂😳😳😳😆😆😆😆😂😂🎄🎄🎄😳
If Christmas Carol met Final Destination…
I cracked up watching this 😂. Well done SNL
Spared no expense
this sht smells like @mikeDiva
funny but for sure a rehash of SNL Farewell Mr. Bunting which overall was better. Still nice to see Steve Martin and Martin Short
Merry Christmas to everyone (to who is not dead or blind😏😏😏😏)🤣🤣🤣🤣
Greatest ever
DHMIS did the joke first, but SNL expanded on the joke quite well!
Someone on the writing team was heavily influenced by the new season of DHMIS, both feature a slowmotion shot of a coin spinning in the air and then hitting someone square in the eye.
Wtf did I just watch 😭😭😭
my mom (a 4th grade teacher) showed this to her class… 😅
When your get older in your late 20’s SNL skits start to get really dumb af and they won’t make your laugh anymore. Just a heads up guys!
You can tell Steve and Martin had a hand in this one. This writing hasnt been this good all year
In all seriousness, Short would have made a great Scrooge in a movie.
They stole the coin thing from Dhmis
OMG!
Shhhh, the ending was perfect
Martin Short needs to star in a full motion picture remake as the Scrooge. He would be excellent in it.
One of the funniest things I have ever seen, with two great comedians of all time.
I didn’t expect to laugh so hard omg 😂
Truly a masterpiece👌👌👌
😂🤣🤪🤘🏽
When the decapitated head hit Timmy as he was coming up out of the sewer, I died 😂😂
Short is so talented
