He made fun of racism, sexism, misogyny, ignorance, stupidity and religion in a 7 minute monologue...not everyone can do that....bravo...
Arges Hagan @
He didnt make fun of religion tho, he just pointed out the obvious :D
Honestly, it was meh.
I think he's very funny, but these writers are not unfortunately.
Literally anyone who can speak can do that
Arges Hagan without mentioning Trump!
“An informed racist is a better racist”. Omg that was hilarious
an informed racist is stupid
ronnie wilson most racists are racist because they are informed.
@Bee Gilbert thanks for explaining that.
Informed people are never racists though.
@@robertgoldman1579 racists are racists because they are intolerant, hateful and prejudiced. No other reason.
“You know what? This time, shame on us.” 😂
bilal ahmad thanks, I had no idea I even had that many likes.
Cool. 😎
bilal ahmad enjoy yours internet buddy
Please, can u explain me that joke? I'd be super thankful
@@mariaotano1659 It's a play on the old saying "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me."
You had 2099(2K) likes i clicked and now you have 2.1K likes ... i don't know why iam typing this... it's been 4 years...

Why do americans find such cheap jokes so funny ?

This guy just blew me away! Probably the best monologue on SNL for a long time!
too soon
You're freaking name is Ansari. What about your bro Aziz?
Indeed ! 🤣🤣🤣🤩🌎🌍
I read this comment just as it started & was thinking yeah okay whatever, but I have to say I agree.
Not PC, but Louis CK had the BEST monologue of all time.
Being a Pakistani Muslim, it's good to see him present a different version of our community than what is usually interpreted by media. Good job, Kumail!
Aimen P. (Pakistani atheist) ex Muslim he was raised Shi’a Muslim but isn’t religious anymore
@@hamzadolman1081 so what?
@@champagnealamanzar6891 I appreciate your replay and candor. Sharia law is not something that one can half do - its either all or nothing. There are some who say "oh well we wouldnt adopt THAT portion of Sharia Law" and you simply cannot do that.
I part company with you, however, that most speak out - that is flat out not true. You will attack those who criticize Islam, but you will not say one word to those who use Islam as an excuse for violent behavior. Its a fact, not a matter of what the media shows. The media WOULD show that when it happens as that pushes the message that Islam is peace, so if there were folks who opposed Jihad, why wouldnt they show that? The truth is because you would be slaughtered. Hundreds of thousands of Muslims have been murdered for opposing jihad. Two muslim scholars even did a study that over 80% of mosques in the US preach some sort of violence ( _Mordechai Kedar and David Yerushalmi Middle Eastern Quarterly, 2011_ )
@@champagnealamanzar6891 Well, then its up to you and me brother, to help keep peace in this world. Im ever in your neck of the woods, the first round is on me (Im a root beer man myself) :) Pizza, hot wings, you name it. Stay safe, man!
Being a Pakistani Muslim doesn’t make it good, it’s good for everyone
The whole Sikh joke was very very intelligent. Kumail is a comedy genius.
I agree..loved it! 😄
Yea even Hasan covered it sometime back with Trevor
u think it's intelligent because you're sikh. so dumb lmao
best SNL monologue I've ever seen. More intelligent standups like this please!
Yeah!! I wish SNL has some kinda feedback or wishlist thing they can get from their fanbase.

"An informed racist is a better racist"
Cringe
Any informed racist here?
But once informed, most don't stay racist. That's why informed racists are so rare
I want that on a t-shirt.
That was funny but I couldn't help thinking that an informed racist would stop being a racist.
I was told to go back to Africa and I told them I was born in Chicago IL. So if you're paying for my safari trip, thanks ♡
I always get the accent talk. Oh you sound so articulate, you must from somewhere else...
Elana Henderson/Minister Ahahahaha!
People are so generous these days! Free vacations! It's like paying it forward...but bigger!
Elana Henderson/Minister I've gotten "go back to Afghanistan" and I was like.... hmmm... guess who's got a leg up on being an international super spy? The Latin chick who somehow looks middle eastern.
Dude, racists are so weird. Sometimes I want to punch em, but other times I'm almost impressed at how creative the stupidity is.
If someone said to me "Go back to the Philippines!!!" I would not give a single shit
I'm just trying to find the exact moment when Kumail saw Spielberg in the audience.
same
@@spookikerii people have been saying it's right when he says "Frisbees and golf", because he mentioned on a podcast (Armchair Expert) that he screwed up his words right as he saw him. *shrugs*
Me too!
came for the same reason
0:44 is the moment he sees him.
OMFG That is the hardest I've laughed at an SNL intro in yeeears! Thank you!
This dude killed it! Intelligent, provoking, and comedic. Great work good sir.
Kumail you killed this monologue! Never thought I would see Islamophobia compared to Will and Grace but it was a funny joke! I'm a new fan of yours and Congrats on having a breakout year.
Simon James I thought she was going to say "killed people during the 9/11 choas.
Lol. Talking about islamaphobia when the parents literally didn’t want him to marry just because she is white. Yeah...islamaphobia alright
Is that the one where Will gets thrown off a building for being gay and Grace is punished for travelling without a mahram?
Johnny Tumavitch So if rich parents don't want their child to marry a poor person, do they have "poorophobia"? It is common (wrong, but common) that parents of older generations want their children to marry "their own kind" - be it race, status, or whatever, but Nanjianis parents accepted his decision - his making fun of it and pointing it out shows he is willing to fight misconceptions in his own culture as well. No culture/country is perfect.
My 1st 1,000th Thumbs Up. A good one.
"Just because you're racist doesn't mean you have to ignorant "
Really love it
Also can we please talk about how fire that suit looks on him?
Yes sure. All Pakistanis are handsome by the way. And proud to be a Pakistani ;)

That Sikh joke was so good
Vance Wade The delivery on that joke was amazing
Vance Wade I'm Sikh and I know exactly what he means so well done to him for getting our point of view
It really was. I am also a Sikh
"The Big Sikh"
Get it right which is wrong.
This was one killer ass monologue. Great work Kumail.
Whoa an actual comedic monologue weird
Every now and then a professional standup comedian actually gets celebrity enough to be on SNL haha. Rare!
Kumail (which my phone keeps trying to autocorrect to "My mail") is one of the most consistently funny people working today.
I got to see him practice this monologue at The Comedy Store in West Hollywood two weeks ago. Hilarious dude. Love him in Silicon Valley.
Yeah half of these are jokes he used in the past. Which I normally wouldn't care about but I just binged Kumail stand up and I knew the punchline to every joke besides the Sikh and informed racist one. Also it's pronounced "Sick" with a little emphasis on the H not "seek". I'm a Sikh for reference.
Good to know. I taught with Sikh teachers in Australia but I pronounced it "seek." You learn something every day.
Joseph Paul I feel like people don't want to call us "sick" because it sounds bad so people will be PC about it instead of talking to a Sikh. Slightly disappointed Kumail didn't know how to pronounce it either. Oh well.
You might be right. It's sad but often pop culture has to pander to the least educated audience. But some of us are trying to pay attention and learn.

Wow he is seriously good
I love how his eyebrows are a character on their own
who else wants to see Hasan Minhaj and Kumail Nanjiani together sharing stage and firing Jokes on India & Pakistan :-D
They did on a zoom interview
And all the white people will laugh on India and Pakistan.
Yes please
@@VY-zt3ph and the brown ones too dude
I love watching the musicians in the back when it's a great monologue like this one
Sam V haha me too
I held the phone to my face closer to see their reactions lol
Why??
so glad this guy is getting attention!
daniela curi Me too! I love this guy!
every dog has his day
I've liked him since he was on "The Green Room."
I wished this monologue had been like a 2 hour special.
This was an awesome monologue. You can tell how nervous he is to start, then he starts warming up after a few laughs, and ends on a super strong note.
Kumail killed. And half way in, he knew it. Loved it!
Accurate racism would be amazing. I'm not Chinese.
Go back to Thailand, the only southeast Asia country that was never colonized by any other European country. That is what gave the country's Prathet name "land of the free."
Yahya typical ignorant racism. Wrong country.
Souk Khanhsila I know, right? I'd be so impressed by the racist that I couldn't possibly be mad at them.
Nobody gives a fuck about where your Mongolian looking ass is from.
What do you reckon Robert Goodman's problem is?
Anyone else here from his Jimmy Fallon Interview?
6:20 is when he internally freaks out lol
Thanks, had to scroll down too far for this lol
was looking for this !
FaRtBoMb42 this is wrong
FaRtBoMb42 it’s at 2:25
I am an Indian and not a Pakistani, but I am proud of this dude and love him for this, way more than any Pakistani. NAILED IT!!
Kumail is adorable, smart, and hilarious, and his eyebrows are nothing short of magnificent. As a white girl, 10/10 would marry to piss off his family.
You want to marry into a racist family? Are you nuts?
@@anthonyarredondo9587 What are you?
you can do that to my parents :D FTR second marriage is allowed in Islam :D
Same here -- I love him!!
@UCflYenlUc8cSHteQcwo1qEg they are not racist, they don't hate white people, they just don't want to marry into white families. There is a difference.
Purebred is the term.
This guy has been funny in all the videos I've seen him in😂
Biniam Gaming you should watch silicon valley. He's a nugget of gold.
He's in the 12 Angry Men Inside Amy Schumer episode as well. That one is on the short list for me for funniest episodes of any tv show ever.
Yeah this dude's a g! You gotta see mean tweets with him. He has comebacks also. He's gonna be special if not already.
Nanjianis 0, White women 2....I choked on it :D
Still waiting for this guy to host the Oscars. He would be perfect.
My indoor kids senses are tingling. This stand-up is awesome from an awesome fellow geek.
Emmanuel Alejandro This isn't really stand-up...
Indoor kids lmao. Never heard that one before but it's great.
Indoor Kids was a podcast that he did with his wife.
This is literally some of his stand up material
chicken sandwich
I like my SNL monologue like this :P
Robert Goldman r u dumb lol
@Robert Goldman- You mean the propaganda that skews the image of others and ignores the differences that make us all human. Or the propaganda that is spewed daily by closet bigots and racists for are fearful and intimidated of anyone differing from them? Get out of here you incompetent Neanderthal.
flipparachi777 oh shit that was good
As the man said, at least be an informed racist Robert Goldman. Actually, Robert Moron is a more fitting title.
Emil Smith Nielsen You're very handsome! I hope that made you're day! 😁👍
This monologue was hilarious, it had me in tears. The Sikh joke omg.
"That is the way of my people..." classic. I can relate.
From hosting a comedy show in the back of a comic book store to SNL. Nice, Kumail.
Please let him be the next year's correspondence dinner performer.
倪传历 oh, hell yes!
My favorite SNL monologue ever. Come back to it all the time, and it never stops making me laugh. 😄
Rosebud Girl same
He is smart and cute! It'll be fun to see Kumail and Hasan Minhaj together on a show.
When Kumail made that Quran joke, I was thinking about how that would be a newsbite for so many right wing propaganda stations tomorrow, then he proceeds to point that out. Great monologue!
Deep rooted Misogyny, homophobia and antisemitism in the Quran - and more importantly, in practice by a disturbing number of Muslims - should be a genuine liberal concern. It's a shame the left is sooner to rush to islam's defense then to its victims. As for the joke, that's about the only PC Quran joke one could make; "it says women can't drive" (nobody makes the claim the Quran says that).
exactly, pathological. if you want a realistic take on muslim culture, just look up the comments of the many ex-muslims out there. there was an excellent ex-muslim conference in england recently which would give anyone a reality check about the religion and its problems with sexism and violence. there is a distinction between racism and that of critical thought about an abusive ideology. all ideologies, whether religious or otherwise, that teach sexism, patriarchy, inequality and violence should be challenged.
so in your mind addressing reality is "going too far." reality check, dealing with reality is not going too far for all of the women in muslim cultures who are controlled by men, for the atheists and gay people being killed or fearing for their lives, etc.. good job with your thinking there, ryan. here's a link to one panel at a recent ex-muslim conference in england for a reality check:
czcams.com/video/37K9PuEHubQ/video.html
from that link you can find and view the rest of the conference panels as well. pretty eye opening.
I do take secular blasphemy laws like the shielding of Islam from criticism seriously. And if you cared about human rights, you would too.
Uh, no. Criticism of Islam is not bigotry or a persecution of a people. It's very simple actually; ideas =/= people. People have rights. Ideologies do not
I like his delivery.
Same here, I order the lamb and rice platter, they bring it right up to my office
Lina Tran the Sikh vs Muslim part was so well done
Oh because he's Middle Eastern he's a delivery guy?? 😉
The Indian Sub-continent is farther away from the Middle East than the Irish isles.
Chris.....so he's Irish?
I have watched this show for decades and it is very rare to see the band behind the guests clapping during a monologue. You often see them laughing but a number of them were laughing and clapping at his jokes. Congratulations on such a heartfelt and smart introduction of yourself to those of us not yet familiar with you, Kumail. Best wishes going forward.
"That is the way of my people"
omg😂😂
Kumail killed it big time, so good to see Pakistanis doing well in Hollywood.

"An informed racist is a better racist" - Kumail Nanjiani
One of my favorite SNL monologues of all time - and that's really saying something. 😁
“Marry white woman one time? shame on you. Marry white woman two times? Shame on us.” That’s a J cole quote I think
really? I thought it was Donald Trump
Sean McDannold marry a white woman 3 times? Fuck the peace sign let it rain on you
It's a common idiom. Original is "Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me"
BRBallin1 yeah but jcole used it in his song
BRBallin1 no it’s “fool me once shame on you, fool me you can’t get fooled again”
kumail killed it
I did think he was Indian for a minute.
I like this guy, he's hilarious. 😂😂
As an Indian living in America myself, it’s a common mistake.
Just don’t say it to native-born Indians and Pakistanis because they will eat you up.
He is not indian he our proud pakistani.
Basically same thing
Indians and Pakistanis look the same anyway since they were the same country a while back I'm saying this as a Pakistani
@@Gemnist98 I know.
a truly ground breaking comic in his prime in front of a live audience.....knowledge through humor
This is one if the very FEW times I actually laughed out loud at someone's SNL monologue. Kumail, you were amazing!
So good.
v2lab omg check this hilarious stand up out 😂😭 czcams.com/video/JAJfbcjOtvs/video.html
I just don't get how could people unlike such an amazing monologue, I really don't.
This deserves a million thumbs up... Every bit was my favorite. Nice Job Kumail👍👍👍👍
So this is what happens when you have an actual stand up comedian doing stand up 🤷♂️😂
Kumail is making serious moves! Brown is making a huge comeback and I'm loving it =)
Sikh bit was lit
This was one of the absolute best monologues I've ever had the pleasure of viewing. This guy's great.
Is that the Bollywood star from Eternals?
Love his sense of humor. Good job Kumail!
This isn’t a monologue, this is great stand up by a great comedian.
I love SNL and this was one of the funniest opening monologues and episodes I've seen in a while. well done!!
"An informed racist is a better racist" haha love it.
That was gold.
I'll vote for him if he ran for an office...Lol
He's from Pakisthan, so no he can't.
shotlee J that's the dumbest fucking shit I've ever heard. Idiots like you are the reason why Obama and Trump became president.
He's one of those people who are too smart to run for office, anyway.
shotlee J OF COURSE.....because telling jokes clearly means you understand economics, Criminal and Civil Justice matters and have the Moral strength needed in a public official to withstand people trying to bride or coerce you to do something against the public good. Let me guess, By your Clearly elaborate vetting of candidates for public office. I'm betting you Voted for Hillary Clinton and you probably did just because she was a woman and because she told everyone it was her turn to be president and told everyone they were sexist if they didn't vote for her corrupt, war mongering ass!
BRBallin1 he said an office. Its only the presidency that you have to be a natural citizen. You can run for any other office. Arnold Schwarzenegger became govenor of California despite being born in Austria.
I think the first time I saw Kumail was with his wife on a gaming youtube show probably attached to Geek and Sundry. Halfway through the clip, I thought this guy is not just funny, but REALLY funny and deserves a bigger stage. Glad to see it happened. Silicon Valley was a big step up, but hosting SNL is pretty much an "I made it, bitches" mic drop for a young comedian that was doing youtube content a few years ago.
You got a link to the video?
Look up The Indoor Kids on the Nerdist channel. It's Kumail and his wife playing games with guests.
His stand-up seems like something Chandler Bing or Matthew Perry would do.
P.s. loved his confidence and that clever smile
This whole thing is hilarious. Laughed so hard at the Sikh part. "Get it right, which is wrong!" Lol!
Remember kids, an informed racist is a better racist.
Intelligent monologue. Right on
I can't believe I missed this last snl episode, I freaking love this guy
"That is the way of my people " 🤣🤣🤣😭
Kumail makes me such a proud brown girl
r u related 2 Rubius Hagrid?
Brown girl called Ruby Hagrid... seems legit
Your name is Ruby Hagrid....and you're a brown woman.....yeah uh-huh....
Awesome monologue Kumail! Very funny and insightful. My wife and I bought The Big Sick and really enjoyed it.
Awesome! Probably one of the best opening monologue I've seen in a while.
I am doing covid 19 Kumail binge. Every video I find is great. I first heard about Kumail when he appeared in Latitudes magazine.
Kumail...you killed it men..
I fucking love Kumail!!!
Love Kumail.So happy for him and Emily. What a great year they’re having.
Wow, that was an amazing bit. The way he built it up was amazing.
Oh that ranch dressing part 😂
I'm super white and just do not get the obsession either.
Crofregernish Super hot also.
im pakistani and i love ranch
WOLVES!!!!
"That is the way of our people"
“That guy seems to know what he’s talking about, I’ll pack my bags” 😂😂😂😂😭😭😭
He is extremely funny ....but very underrated tho
He is seriously underrated
My family is mixed with Pakistani and Caucasian as well and it's the best 💯💯
know any Urdu?
Vegans Por Vida check out my vlogs of Pakistan cheers
Pakistanis are Caucasian. Caucasian doesn’t just mean white
Pakistani is a “nationality” not a “race” nor an “ethnicity”.
Must look Lebanese then
I'm legitimately in love with this dude. Is sense of humor and delivery are SO ON POINT.
Something about his face reminds me of Cary Grant.
If you had said Hugh Grant it would’ve made his day.
I see it also and did a double take
It’s the hair.
This guy is ridiculously funny ..!!
Honestly this was amazing haven't laughed like this or heard a clever and awesome delivery like this.
Any fellow Armchair Experts here?
I think 3:03 is the moment.
Joshua Kazemi, I think 3:00 is where he “stumbles on the word”
I rewatched it just to find this moment. Thanks!
That's why I'm here 😁😁
Armchairies unite!
@@DiceMonkeyGames btw for the record, that's how I think Armchairies should be spelled but Dax always spells it Armcherries. I love him but hate that spelling hahaha

This is officially my new favourite comedian :D
Kumail monologue was hilarious and thought provoking. His delivery is soo good
Was watching SNL on Xfinity & had to pause after his monologue to come here & comment.
I love this guy! So awesome!!!
That must be one of the best opening monologues ever. At least in my humble opinion 💕
