Mike Myers is suspiciously convincing as a Japanese man.
not THAT much, when you know Japanese ^^
And a scotsman
MM is goood in this act
i second that. he s really good at it
I didn't realize that was Mike Myers
Crazy the situations you get yourself into when you’re living in a van down by the river

Bad things happen. See, Tony Montana in Scarface. I saw the TV version. Where did he get that scar ?

What did Tony Montana think of Miami ?
"This town is like a great big chicken, waiting to be plucked."

This is actually a pretty genius skit. It’s hilarious, unique, and completely in another language/culture. Farley is perfect.
Farley is absolutely at his best in this skit. He plays the out of towner so darn well.
I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't even given the script, they just said, "Farley you're up, just be yourself." and he killed it.
GOOD LORD!
@@davismavis2834I was thinking the same thing! 🤣
@@davismavis2834 Chris was taken from us far too early. i do not envy whatever it was he was going through. the man loved to make people laugh, no matter the cost. im just some guy who loves Chris Farley, i only know as much as the next guy i dont know his mind, but he was easily one of the funniest guys of all time and i miss him.

One letter even
Yep, this is such a well-written and hilarious skit
Funniest skit I've seen in ages.
And how they gave him the answer on the first question and he questioned the answer "..hachi ..ju ..hachi?" Lol
I'm from Japan, his Japanese pronouce quite great! Im impressed his talent of copy and laughed loudly in the middle of night!
What were they saying?
is not correct Japanese conversation,but sounds like japanese talk. sorry cant say what they are saying.@@jtark9341
they are using some proper japanese words but does not make any senses!!!
@@hetzennauer Thank you for explaining this to us!

When Farley sneaks that marker sniff in there... kills me every time
Chris Farley was so legendary. Surely miss him.
We all do
From everything I've heard he was a real sweetheart to his fans & would often miss flights to talk to fans he ran into @ airports & would go out of his way to say hi & sign autographs. Just so sad he couldn't beat his demons. We could certainly miss his gentle spirit & sense of humor right now !!
Why is this in my feed?
He's in that van down by the river in the sky.
@@chasedowney3358 dont ask why, you’ve been chosen
“GOOD LORD IN THE NAME OF ALL THATS SACRED!”
he said in panic
I use farleys expressions when i overreact to everyday occurences for fun.
Beads of sweat begin pouring down his face as the strange Japanese hosts start attaching electrical connections securely to his genitals. “MOTHER OF MERCY I DON’T SPEAK JAPANESE!” Again he calls out to these sadistic monsters, but again in vain. His lucky streak clearly coming to a halt, It was in this moment (the electrical current noticeably humming louder and louder) that the misplaced tourist from Wisconsin wished he would have just taken a deeper huff off that permanent marker...
I was 15 when Farley died and of course I was a fan of his from movies like "Tommy Boy" and "Black Sheep", but it isn't til my later years now that I really appreciate just how truly special he was.
Ninja too.
Hindsight is always 20/20 my friend. He will be missed, indeed.
I was like 4 or 5 when he died. I think I was 7 or 8 and had watched Tommy boy and black sheep probably 25 times by that point and was sad when I asked my mom why we didn't have any more of his movies
I was 6 when he died his films still make me laugh now and the sketches, mad that Chris was the voice of shrek for then Mike ends up taking over...
I am in tears from Chris Farley’s reaction to Alec Baldwin and Julia Sweeney cutting their fingers off 😂
That's Janeane Garofalo dumbass
Janine garafelo
OH MY GOD! YOU SEE THAT?!
Good Looord! What is name of all that's sacred!
GOOD LORD! IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT'S SACRED!
I love that when Mike Myers said “Milwaukee, Wisconsin” combined with Farley’s brilliant bewildered look, the crowd knew exactly what this sketch was about.
What was it about?
@@Y20XTongvaLand The fact that he was the only American in the room of Japanese.
It wasn't that cryptic..
Native New Yorker now living in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, made my ears perk up. Anything with Chris Farley is worth watching.
@@Y20XTongvaLand How clueless people from Milwaukee are.
When Farley sniffs the marker before writing....genius detail
So damn subtle and so needed
In the chris farley book. He is actually looking at Adam Sandler when he sniffs the marker. You can hear Sandler laughing 😆
@@Thaligamathor I'm guessing that's also Sandler he's smiling at right after he writes his answer!
@@trevgreg2 yea in the book hes always trying to make everyone break character on or off screen lol

What a great skit and of course Farley took it to a level no one else could. Mount Rushmore of comedic geniuses.
Yet somehow real Japanese game shows are even weirder

Weird and AWESOME!!!
I am still amazed to this day how they were able to so quickly learn enough Japanese to pull this off. Mike Myers pulls it off so effortlessly.
It's on cue cards and they just had to pronounce certain words correctly.
so it was actual Japanese? I've always wondered that
@@okonh0wp yes it is actual Japanese but it is terrible.
@@LexWhitedotnet lol!
I mean the japanese is terrible but lmao they did pretty well for a skit

4:43 "Good Lord!!" I love the amount of drama Farley can put into something and it sounds even FUNNIER.
Farley's first line 'I'm sorry I don't speak Japanese' is the greatest ever delivery of a line ever.
i lost it when he said that
Mother of mercy I don't speak Japanese!
i love how it just devolves into yakuza punishments
They do that for real??
@@robd1329 they've done far far worse
@@robd1329 yeah, iirc the pinky finger thing was how they initiated members
@UCM0jIw7M5aSLgBhP4ufABnw nah iirc the pinky finger being chopped off serves as punishment if you severely f up
@@JaconatorLS From what I understand it, one would have to offer a knuckle's worth as recompense, so first offence, you'd lose up to the first knuckle, etc. you don't lose the whole finger for a first time, my interpretation is that it's a punishment enough to "brand" them but not enough to disable them unless they keep messing up.
This is just stuff I recall from interviews though, you might want to take it with a grain of salt.
"MOTHER OF MERCY I DONT SPEAK JAPANESE!! 🗣️ MARY call the American embassy!!" Lmfao
I miss the 90's sooo much..
We truly took it for granted
I hear they are coming back in 67 years.
Me too.
We all do.
It's amazing how they make something so funny, even if you can't understand 90% of the dialog.
you can thank chris farley for that
Ha ha, how about; Ancient Puppetry* (four thousands years old),Old Greek comic mime*,Theatre of the absurd* (1940-60),C.Chaplin, Laurel & Hardy..comedy mime...etc etc
Chris was a Genius
That is part of the genius of the skit. We feel for Chris's character because most of us haven't learned Japanese either. Having subtitles would have ruined it.
I did the the math Ramhead.
82.459% was fake japanese. The rest was Chris' lines in American.
He wasn’t just fat guy falls down. He played awkward/nervous Larry perfectly.
He was much funnier than he believed. He had amazing instincts and timing as well.
Rest his comedic soul,,,good thing we still have "KEVIN FARLEY",have anyone seen images and video of Chris's brother it's erie,,,
@@wyldelf2685 I just looked him up and holy shit! The likeness is so uncanny you'd think they were twins! Also, just found out he was Ketchup Boy in the "Cooking with Randy" sketch Chris guest starred in on All That!
What a waste--all the shoji in back of him and he didn't even crash through it.
@@jfziemba You’re so edgy.
Jeneane Garofalo’s read of her first line and the shriek as she cuts off her finger have always made me pml.

@@jcmick8430"Pee myself laughing."
Mike Myers nailed it. He played the Japanese game show host perfect.
As a proud American of Japanese descent, this is one of funnest skits from SNL.
There was a time when we could have fun joking with each other. That can't be allowed anymore. I bet there's some great stuff about Americans in Japan! As there should be.
@@thanksfernuthin we still can. It's just SNL and shows like it are a part of an archaic corporate media system that's in a downward spiral. Soon the next generation will start creating their own shows and things will be like the attitude era of the 90s x1000

@@Space_Ghost_Hunter suuuuuuure
5:43 “Hey, excuse me, I won, what the heck are ya doin’ here?” Honestly, Farley is probably the only person who could ever make that line hilarious. His delivery and bewildered tone were just perfect.
And he was from Wisconsin so he knew both how to act in caricature as a Midwesterner from Wis-CAN-sin AND how people from elsewhere viewed people from there.
Boy does he commit to every role. No character breaking like Jimmy Fallon or Horacio Sanz. For me this set of SNL players were the best, late 80s through mid 90s.
@@SKarthikeyan75 they were , u dothead
@@SKarthikeyan75 You're right, he owned every role like John Belushi. In fact, that original cast of SNL with Belushi, Akroyd, etc is the only one that can rival the Farley era players.
I miss the SOB (sill-old-big) guy
I've never seen this sketch before but only one person could've conceptualized this: Mike Myers - a true weirdo in grerest comedic sense. Every character he creates is so fully formed and perfectly nuanced and played out. This sketch is a masterpiece IMHO!
100%-there are a lot of Myers traits sprinkled throughout the sketch. Incredible mind at work.
I’m American with Japanese wife and daughter and this skit really does cut pretty close to home. A very good satire of Japanese game shows … it’s been a while, but some of those shows were pretty extreme, although I don’t recall ever seeing fingers chopped off!
I translate Japanese for a living. For the record: the intro and the lines of the actors other than Mike are, for the most part, real Japanese, clearly translated from actual English sentences. I can tell that they wrote it in English first and then had someone translate and transcribe it phonetically, so the actors would know what to say. Their pronunciation is awful, so its hard to make out what they're saying a lot of the time, but the words they are trying to pronounce are actual words (The exception to that is whoever did the voiceover intro at the beginning. Their pronunciation is pretty good!). The reason some people think it's gibberish is because during the transitions, Mike seems to be improvising by throwing in random words. At some point, however, he always goes back on script to keep the sketch moving forward. The first question is real - he asks them how many keys are on a piano, with the choices being 70, 100, or 88. Incidentally, Mike mangles the words "hyaku" (100) and "hajichu hachi" (88) so badly, that he actually ends up saying something closer to "faster, bees, bees". Question 2 is hilarious because it's total nonsense. I think what they were going for is that he gives them three words and they're supposed to correctly write the kanji for one of them. However, the three words are "doki doki" (which is just the sound of a heart beat), "kagemusha" (the name of a Kurosawa movie), and Godzilla. Alec Baldwin scribbles something that does not resemble any language, but Julia Sweeney's is actually pretty close! She nearly gets the Kage part right and the rest is the kind of random flourish that you see in real calligraphy. In any case, they both get their words wrong, but the joke is that since Farley writes Godzilla in English, he spells it correctly so his answer is correct. When Farley is hooked up to the electrical wires, the question they ask is very odd. It sounds to me like Mike is saying ”according to children's songs, who is always sitting?" Farley answers "kwaki surpi niku" which is completely meaningless, and Mike asks the judges if that's close enough. They say no, because the answer is "kwaki surpi PIku" (again total nonsense). I will say that some of the mannerisms border on offensive but if you watch Japanese TV, you'll sometimes see them impersonate Americans and the results are no less cartoonish. There was a lot of effort that went into this.
Thanks I teach journalism and I use it to show to rioplatense castellano students the non verbal communication since this a bridge too far for a tourist. So most of students don't understand English nor Japanese but the beauty of this sketch is the non verbal communication from Garofalo Myers Farley and Alec. Thanks for your input for the non Japanese speaking people
Fascinating. Thanks for your observations and break down of this nutty sketch.
Unfortunately as much i respect your response and the time you took to translate everything i have to say you're incorrect. Julia Sweeney (who played its Pat) is not in this sketch, her name is Laura Kightlinger :)
@@MalikCanada Damn! I was worried I had that wrong. She was the one I remembered from that time period and they look and sound alike. Thanks for the correction. She writes good calligraphy!
@Laimbrane I feel even worse for not recognizing janeane Garofalo, lol. She's a legend!
I like how mike myers keeps ignoring the fact THAT CHRIS FARLEY KEEPS YELLING I DONT SPEAK JAPENESE .SO HE JUST REPEATS THE QUESTIONS IN JAPANESE SLOWER.
Cos that’s what English speakers do when people say they don’t speak 🤣
Yeah it’s making fun of how Americans do that to people who don’t speak English
Wow,, it's like "inception" hee hee
Few know that Mike is actually Japanese. They say he's from Canada to avoid the backlash at having had a japanese comic on the show giving what they did to the harbour. True story. Look it up.
@@zombywoof1015 What would be helpful, is if you linked an article.
Yeah, let me just casually look up a story that is supposedly censored. M'kay.
Mike Meyers is a comedy genius. And yes, Japanese game shows are like this but even wackier.
Wackier than cutting fingers? So they're cutting penises in reality?
Do they include cutting off body parts?
They, on occasion, include fellatio contests.

The little whimsical dance at the end with everyone participating whilst Chris Farley is going absolutely mental in the background is pure gold
When I first saw that dance as a kid I thought it was the most hilarious and ridiculous thing I'd ever seen. I still feel that way.
My Japanese friends nearly pee themselves over this sketch. Farley is like myself the first time I visited Japan
I was born and raised in Japan and can tell you that this is exactly how we act and talk.
Chris was the only guy in a cast who could reasonably vibrate like that
They had one week to memorize a skit in Japanese. All things considered they did pretty damn good.
Most of it was gibberish. Lol.
@@kyler32291 yeah, but you can tell someone actually bothered to write it in Japanese and they tried their best to memorize the words even though they didn't know what they meant. It was funny hearing them swap and stress the wrong syllables.
@@WadeStar Exactly. The casts for the last ten years wouldn't dare attempt this considering that they can't even memorize their lines in English.
@@JFmK-sh5nh I know. Like they think they're really cute and funny when they screw up or abandon their skits or lines, as though they're improvisation geniuses. While really it's as annoying as sitting in a room with a bunch of people making in-jokes. Like I'm glad at least someone is laughing. It's just not anyone watching it on TV. I've only watched SNL recently when Dave Chappelle and Bill Burr hosted.
The end was the best Mike Myers how he it held it together on the switch without laughing hysterical I would have lost it lol
It would've been incredible to see Chris Farley and Bob Odenkirk working together in the present. RIP Chris. You're tremendously missed.
Imagine Chris Farley as a character in breaking bad or better call saul lol would have made the show even better
Odenkirk wrote Motivational Speaker for Chris back in the Second City days in Chicago.
Chris Farley was going to be shrek
Just imagine Chris making a surprise cameo as the drunk businessman that Saul Goodman robs. Chris would have been amazing in dramatic roles, if he had only lived long enough to show us.
Farley was supposed to be in a lot of works that ended up being huge... though Bob is big now but he was never famous in acting. His guest appearance on "Newsradio" in the barbershop quartet episode is hilarious...
Oh how I miss the 90s SNL. This skit was great. RIP Chris Farley
‘86-‘94 was the best
"Good Lord! In the name of all that's sacred." Great line. Great performances all around in this classic sketch.

Meyers and Farley are so talented
Chris Farley playing the classic middle-aged Midwesterner. Only him makes that work so great.
He reminds of me of my dads friends lmaooo
Lol. I'm from Wisconsin.
He always plays as himself and bit of his dad. He always acted to make his dad laugh. He was real miss Farley!
He said he based Matt Foley on his dad and his h.s. gym teacher. When I heard that, I laughed and almost wished I'd grown up in Wisconsin!
He wasn’t even middle aged here. He turned 30 in ‘94 when this skit was filmed.
HA, I love that Mike got away with saying "No shit..." after Chris said he didn't speak Japanese... LOL
Maybe it wasn't as clear to the censors.
@Thomas Atwood He says "saigo no shitsumon" which means "final question" Coincidentally, this also contains "no shit"
Absolutely genius
Farley played the Milwaukee tourist so well
I could barely breathe when I first saw this sketch! Chris has me rolling 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Disagree… this skit was not funny at all. Farley had his moments when he was funny, that was it and this skit definitely wasn’t one of them. To me, his only funny skits were the Matt Foley motivational speaker skit and the Chip N Dale dancer skit. That was pretty much it. He only had 1 successful movie which was Tommy Boy.

Mike Myers is hyper gifted. Farley is super funny playing entirely straight, which takes real acting chops. Mike Myers ability to do so many characters boggles the mind.
He's a hyper hypo
The best thing about this skit is they're speaking real Japanese, albeit butchered. Not gibberish lol
It's a mixture of real words mixed with random phonemes that sound like Japanese.
It would be the equivalent in English of saying: "Hello was normal I garage no but kids are sauce!"
@@DerpASherpa117 Oh, you can easily find that on a t-shirt in Japan.
Well, it started out mostly real, then kind of devolved into mostly gibberish lol. Obviously the pronunciation was all over the place, but some of the most obvious nonsense was when the first question asked "How many keys does a piano have" and the answer choices were 70, quickly, and 88, then the second question wasn't even a question, just a string of Japanese pop culture references with a question mark at the end. There's nothing wrong with this method, in fact it makes the skit funnier to me, as a native speaker.
@@RoemDaug that is really cool insight. Thank you. And yes, their attention to small details like using actual words, even incorrectly, makes it even funnier.
@@RoemDaug They pronounced it like “quickly”, but it’s clear to me from context that the script said “one hundred”.

The level of talent on this show in the 90s was insane. I can't believe the cast took the time to learn Japanese to do this. Nothing like this would get made today, nobody in television would want to put in the effort for a 7 minute skit anymore.
I dunno about "learn japanese". its a pretty phonetic langauge, they were just mouthing teleprompters like they usually do I think.

Yeh, I thought that, too. So old and beating corny. I hated it 35 years ago when a friend of mine said it to me the first time. But Farley made me laugh with it here!
The premise of this skit is just genius! Austin... uh, I mean Mike and Matt uhhh I mean, Chris do such a great job.
Man, i thought you were dead, why don't you upload videos anymore?
@@JoseRamirez-rq2gj had some stalkers who were harassing me and so I got tired of it. I could upload and leave comments turned off but I decided to just stop uploading altogether.
One of SNL's absolute greatest sketches.
“Mary, call the American embassy!”. 😂😂😂
I am Japanese but it’s the funniest sketch from SNL!!!!!! So over the top but at the same time, I can’t believe how meticulous this skit is… even for a native Japanese speaker!!!!!!! nuance is so perfectly Japanese!!!
Quiz Kings!!! クイズキングス
Were they are speaking Japanese properly, and using proper grammar?
@@nikolaip4947 No, there are 3000 comments here, and they are all lying about it..
@@nikolaip4947
I think they mean the mannerisms.
everybody knows godzilla. My grandad's mom's name was zilla. Actually I should say grandmom's names' because it's double possesive. Did you know that?
One of the best SNL skit ever.. and Chris Farley was incredible .. as always
I've lived in Japan for years now.....I watch this clip every couple months and it kills me every time!!!!! PS their attention to using real Japanese is good!!!
This would never EVER get made in 2019. Imagine the uproar. That's why it's so good. LOL.
@@dons1932 lmao what? This isn't offensive at all. They've made one's way more offensive. Anti pc people are more delusional than actual pc people
@@squirreldemon3506 A 'white guy' playing 'asian face'. Like 'black face'. And painting the entire Japanese as sociopathic sadists who enjoy torture for entertainment.
Do you EVEN KNOW what Twitter is? This would blow it up, ten times over. People really are snowflakes now.
@@dons1932 The very fact that this sketch was uploaded in 2013 makes your argument kinda void
@@dons1932 "Playing Asian face" except no one up there is playing "Asian face". Mike Myers has some glasses on and dark hair, the woman is normal and so is Baldwin. No one there is doing anything racist. Speaking in Japanese isn't racist.
Man, Chris Farley, aside from his outrageous comedic persona, was a really talented instinctive actor. With a bit of focus, I bet he could have had easily crossed into the drama genre.
I bet he was even more fun in person, can you imagine being friends with him omg.
Drama is easier than comedy. Committing to a comic role takes far more effort than to a dramatic role. Farley was one the best.
He did drama scenes during many parts in Tommy Boy and Black Sheep. He was a talented actor.
Just like Bob Odenkirk
Uh… no, Farley was no actor. He played the same character in all of his movies… which was an embarrassing buffoon 😳😕 that’s really sad. Tommy Boy was his only successful movie, he went way downhill after that
Great skit....SNL would never even think to do this skit today.
This one was pure genius & I never tire of seeing it
Chris Farley God of "over-the-top" physical comedy🙇
I lived in Japan for 4 years. I expected this to be weirder.
Either way, those other contestants were very good sports. Imagine cutting off your finger for getting the wrong answer and then clapping and smiling for the guy who got the question right!
They knew what was coming for him!
If you watch enough Asian dramas, you'll get used to people doing strange things for honor.
