Phil Hartman was one of the funniest comedians in the 20th century, rest in peace Phil.
I hate his wife for taking his life.
Agreed.
Agreed
Agreed.
Absolutely 💯
Blasting both Japanese and American stereotypes at the same time. Brilliant writing
So blessed to grow up in America when we were allowed to have comedy n free speech
@@aedancael1717 Still are.
@@kennykistler6735 nope! Can't offend grown-ups that have the mentality of a fragile child
I can't believe that I somehow managed to miss this McLaughlin Group parody on SNL for so many years now. I'd thought I'd seen them all several times over the years. Brilliant!
Don't forget The Sinatra Group too.
. Sine-aid Oconner...lol.
Phil Hartman's character sounds exactly like Hattori Hanzo in Kill Bill.
Such a sharp observation!
@@ownpetard8379 Like a Hanzo blade.
@@ownpetard8379 it's been so long since I've seen that movie i I thought 'where have I *heard* this voice?' And sure enough its one of those the words are on your tongue but you can't say it.
Yes he does lol good call
Which one is Phil 😭😭
Hartman nailed that voice
This is the 90s equivalent of The Mikado. A satire that appears to be mocking another culture, when really the writers are using the exotic culture to mock themselves.
Mike is a talented actor.
When I think of Myers in this skit all I think is his character in that Japanese game show skit speaking English
Yes, and of course we also are instantly reminded of Carvey's wicked SNL parody of The McLaughlin Group show (him blurting out "Wronnnng!!!!!" at the guests was a scream).
I love the original cast, but let's be honest, this was truly the golden era of SNL. Not one weak link in the entire cast at this point.
As someone from Japan this is hilarious lol 😂💀⚰
so you not offended right
Jpop America Now!!!
@@asianangler push your poison somewhere else. Not being offended by harmless poking fun is not the same as the intentionally malicious nastiness you Trumpers push.
Thank you, Ichiro.

Lady of CHRIST. From Okinawa. Sense of humor. In that order. 😏
Perfect, right down to the "Japanification" of "The McLaughlin Group" theme at the start...
This was peak SNL. It will never be this good again.
Another one of those "They couldn't get away with that today" treasures!
This ain't nothin'!!! I remember watchin' my dad laughin' his ass off at Archie Bunker on "All in the family" Can you imagine THAT show on today? Liberals would be having mental break downs jumpin off bridges and layin' down in front of highway traffic in protest!!! 😋
Damn!!.........Now I wish they'd put it back on the air!
I find that sad. Because this is hilarious. Deprivation of laughter can't be tolerated even at my expense.
That's bullshit. They do this today. You just don't know the difference between racist humour and humour involving race.
all depends on what political party the subject belongs to as to whether or not they get away with it…
@@paulmurphy5244 All in the Family? Are you serious? Are you so dense that you didn't realize that All in the Family was literally created and written by a known liberal/progressive, Norman Leer? Did you not realize that Archie Bunker was created as a character to BE the butt of the joke? Like, the point of the show is to mock Archie's outdated right-wing bigoted way of thinking, but still show him as a human being. It was an attempt to bridge the cultural divide between the progressive youth of the day and the bigoted older generation of that time, but the show's agenda was a blatantly progressive one. So no, liberals would not be having mental breakdowns from that show if they saw it today, because it was made by a liberal, acted by liberals, and watched by liberals and conservatives alike, and still resonates with them. Though today fortunately there are less Archie's in the world, thank God (and perhaps in a small way we can thank All in the Family for that, particularly known liberal Carroll O'Connor's portrayal of Archie Bunker).
If you watched Archie Bunker and thought he was supposed to be "correct" and that the butt of the joke were the liberals, then I'm sorry to say you missed the point... like completely.
I think this sketch was in response to something some Japanese official said about Americans being 'fat' and 'lazy'. I'm could be wrong. "Let's look at the monkey!"
Also when Bush visited Japan and he got sick and Japan called him and America out as being weak for selecting such a leader
Have you looked at the gross amounts of razy fat pigs out there who pretend they aee perfectly healthy?
30 plus years later, Americans are much more fat. If you're thin, you're in the minority.
Phil was a brilliant comedic actor…not many with his level of talent.👍❤️
Phil Hartman sounds like Toshiro Mifune in "Midway"
Spot on! One of the greatest actors all time btw.
A McLaughlin Group Japanese spoof. So perfect 😂
Lololololol im from Japan and spit my tea out reading this.
@@orneryokinawan4529 👍🏻😀🇮🇪🇯🇵🎌
with a little Sprockets thrown in...
WRONG !
@@orneryokinawan4529
WRONG !
"postal workers on drugs" 😂
I think this is very true, but anyone on Drugs is LAZY
I miss these SNL skits! I loved growing up with these guys! ❤
SNL had real talent during that time.
Pacer? That's throwing some shade at the Mirthmobile right there.
This is a brilliant parody of the McLaughlin Group!
One of several they did over the years, Usually it was a direct spoof of the show with Carvey playing John. But my favorite was The Sinatra Group with Hartman playing the moderator.
WRONG!!!
Sketches like this would never be made today on this tv show beaches 😱
Good?
@@unicornevil6913 why is that good?
I dunno they made the Japanese version of the office sketch pretty recently
Mike Myers doing an asian impression. Is impossible to believe until someone watches SNL.
Disrespect should be left behind.
The golden era of SNL!
Definitely. The first season was great but the consistency of greatness of every episode and for years with this cast was the best ever by far!
These four guys are superstars. There is not one person on the show now that can compare to these 4 .it over
👍 Yes Big Time Class Acts!!
Rob Schneider? Really?
Phil Hartman, the best.
Haha Phil channelling his Frankenstein
Actually, one of the actors in this sketch, rob Schneider is a quarter Asian. Allegedly, his half-Asian mom was not offended by the sketch. It was a different time back then, but it’s just teasing in good nature. No harm. Lighten up. 🙂
She wasn't offended because she's Filipino, lol. Btw, I'm Japanese-American and wasn't offended either.
これは凄い！
日本人の特徴が良く出ています！👍️
"Ohaio!" :))))
He was right on the '72 imperial I own a '67 and I know what he meant.
LMAO I find this to be accurate As someone who works at a Japanese owned manufacturer in the USA. The president last month after retuning from Japan literally said "The problem with this country is there is too many fat people in Japan no fat people"
lol nice boss
Very spot on and so True!!!
Except Sumo wrestlers?
@A-small-amount-of-peas You've gotta give Sumo credit when they physically have to eat a lot more than any average person ever would just to gain weight compared to Americans who are able to do that by the regular diet alone.
Sumo also build weight and muscle with a healthier diet including fish and vegetables, building visceral fat under the skin instead of around the organs which normally can cause strokes, etc.
Not to mention all the intense training done all day.
Haha, I remember watching this when it came on live, I probably missed almost every other word because laughing so hard. The fat American woman in stretch pants is something I'll never forget haha.
He should have known calling it a Chrysler Imperial is like calling a Towncar a Ford Lincoln. Imperial was its own make.
Just funny! And yes I know it’s a stereotype!!! It this is back in the day when we could laugh at ourselves. Notice the social commentary is multi layered. The writer of this skit is using foreign accents to totally thrash American culture. While pointing out a presumed superiority complex of the Japanese... oh plus it’s just silly.
LoL!!👍🏻😜
Dana's accent is perfect
This is the type of comedy we need today.
Right on
Rob schneider is the boss ! Epic comedy!
Dana Carvey's performance here is best by far.
only word pronounced correctly...."RRRRROOOHHHNNNNGGG"
Phil Hartman is the only one who does a halfway decent Japanese impression.
Mike look like Iwata.
mattcgw I thought the exact same thing when I saw the thumbnail 😂
As a fat and lazy American, I represent this sketch.
なんちゃって感がすごく伝わる。テロップがちゃんと日本語！そして、右端の人がウッチャンに見えてきて気になってしょうがない。太郎さんと次郎さんは、こんな出演のしかたで良かったんだろうか...
I sure wish I could read Kanji, To know what this Japanese person was saying !
It says "you racist bastards!" 😂😂😂
@@ericdpeerik3928 さん
違うよ。
Phil Hartman sounds and looks like Brian Cranston in Godzilla
0:20 凄い！綺麗な発音の「はい！」👏
Nani! kwaki surpee ni ku.
Pi ku
And this is what rear comery and tarent rooks like
So good!
None of those predictions came true tho
Garth lol
But they do bring up pressing questions
To the first question, I’ve asked that quite a few times.
You’re kirring me!
Never go full Mickey Rooney from breakfast at Tiffany
Japan still denies war atrocities in China, Korea and Taiwan among others from the 1930s and 1940s
They are showing that another people can also be prejudiced, And yet they also said a few true things. Funny stuff, which is the main point.
That was great !
Nailed that GB re-election
Garth killed that "Hye Hye!"
His name is Dana
...Dana Algar 🥁

All names except "Lucky Kitaroh" are Eastern name order. E.g. Hanamizu Tareshiroh, "Hanamizu" is family name, "Tareshiroh" is first name.
vjk2084 Hanamizu isn’t a family name. It literally means “snot”
Well, it's SNL not CNN, so I don't mean to be picky, but those names are made up to sound like Japanese name. At least two of them are from a classic cartoon and one of them is actually the name of a novelist.
I miss this old school SNL cast and writing..... brilliant offensive and fuckin hilarious 😂😂😂.....as comedy should be... .
comedic geniuses
This is fucking hilarious. Would be 100% impossible to make it today tho, the PC police would go into critical meltdown.
+Mihalis Benko Nothing stopping us from making a non PC sketch. Fuck em.
Mihalis Benko clichéd comment
Bullshit. They literally made the similar sketches a few years ago, with Vanessa Bayer and Taran Killam "american J-Pop" and a digital short with "japanese Office"
@Haven no it isn't. 2 other comments disproving it on this thread. It's a clichéd opinion that isn't true but most people just take it at face value
@Haven It's always existed dummy but doesn't mean comedians always push the envelope. It's nothing new just now has a catchy name
Gawf Brooks --- he RAZY!!!
You can tell the audience wasn’t too thrilled about the “black teachers” bit.
I don't get the joke. It seems like all these things are true.
Well.. As far as the predictions go.. Swap the crack addicts for opiate addicts and if you don't care which Bush became president, I guess then that one came true also.
How is westerners pulled off easterners? Is it because it's hilarious and absurd?
I remembered this all.these years. Love it.
I want to be mad, but they are right.
I love Asian culture even its stereotypes.
ちょっといいですか？
Is a word good?
これ好き!!!!
I like this! !! !!
This is the third time I have seen Mike Myers play a different Asian man
Alec Baldwin could've been a panelist in this sketch too, if he had hosted this episode, per his performance in the Japanese Game Show sketch from Season 20. Janeane Garofalo could've been a panelist as well, but by the time she joined the cast, Mike Myers was the only one in this sketch still in the cast.
He marry a man and that laugh is so real 😂😂
エンドロールの癖www
The rest of the world is still asking that first question, lol
No, this is not "you couldn't get away with it today" humour. This is good humour. Because it's about how they see Americans, and both Japanese and American stereotypes. But a bunch of idiots who don't know the difference are lamenting the loss of this type of humour - when it exists today.
too many whiny babies
@@warmbeer2 Too many white woke people offended on behalf of Asians
I'm kind of surprised this one is on their CZcams channel.
Lol I'm surprised they didn't delete it and disavow all knowledge of it ever existing
Why? If anyone is being insulted in this skit, it's Americans.
This is great
Wot?! This would so not be ok!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😏😂
3:14 Thru the loof?
Rob looks exactly like Daniel-Son from Cobra Kai.
Hey hey hey speak for yourself. I've never had a Big Mac
I wonder what Godzilla would think of this, any takers?
When I see this hilarious sketch ,it triggers my craving for Ramen noodles,,,
You know Mike Myers's Japanese character is the inspiration of Austin Powers baby yeah!.
Rice and soy sauce
This is not one bit racist…..but it is beyond hilarious!
What lovely actors.
Mkst ppl watching now have never seen McLaughlin, and are completely missing thr context. 😅😅
holy crap
This sounds like The View in Japan.
The audience did *not* like the "brack teacher" joke...
Agreed, and then they doubled down with mention of Hispanic teachers. Killed the momentum of the sketch.
Did Rob say “black teacher?!? “
What date and episode was this on?
I miss when comedy was this bold.
Did Rob Schneider say "Black Teachers" were the laziest?!
Should report him to b.l.m. to come loot and burn down his home in the name of anti-racism.
I was trying to figure that out too
Another stupid anti-union assumption by the writers in bashing the unions when in fact Japanese auto worker were and are heavily unionized.
Lighten up Francis
Most people see four Japanese people…
But I see four Legendary Comedians
lmao
How things have changed.....
