seriously can anyone take a joke anymore
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top ten
times
SNL pissed someone off hey I don’t even
now what’s that before we begin we
publish new videos every day
so be sure to subscribe for more great
content for this list we’re looking at a
handful of Saturday Night Live skits
that annoyed angered or disappointed
someone or an entire group whether the
joke was funny is irrelevant I mean the
Pope’s probably forgiven her already I
mean he forgave that guy to shot him
right number 10
president Trump airs his grievances via
Twitter this week tweeted the best
tweets
I mean wow what a great smart tweet it’s
a never-ending cycle SNL and Alec
Baldwin mocked Donald Trump during a
skit prompting the president to rage on
Twitter in turn this provides us an L
material for a future sketch ensuring
they never run out of jokes to make at
Donald Trump’s expense Tony about your
Twitter bio it says liberalism is a
mental illness whoa I just got retweeted
eventually this cycle went meta
resulting in Donald Trump blasting SNL
on Twitter about a skit making fun of
how Trump uses the platform apparently
the joke went over the President’s head
and Alec Baldwin is probably not going
to be out of a job anytime soon
actually that’s not why I do what I do
it because my brain is dead but I
promise I’m done retweeting I’m ready to
buckle down and number nine Adrien Brody
goes Jamaican you know a rush stuff on I
you know got old family knowledge you
know after winning an Oscar for his
fantastic turn in Roman Polanski’s The
Pianist Adrien Brody seemed to try
everything in his power to squander that
momentum you know he got me go Sean
Peeta you know I go Sean Foley lashauwn
Mary got Sean John besides giving Halle
Berry an impromptu kiss at the Oscars
the talented actors improv skills were
called into question on Saturday Night
Live while hosting a 2003 episode Brody
donned faked dreadlocks and tried out a
Jamaican accent before introducing
reggae musician Sean Paul if you don’t
beat up enough respect done solid
Brody has yet to riho stess nl
suggesting that Lauren Michaels was far
from impressed
[Music]
number eight
when Down syndrome was the punchline you
know what this song reminds me of what
my dad humor works best when it’s at the
expense of someone else so over the
years Saturday Night Live has poked fun
at nearly everyone still why
down-syndrome
he was running in the grass and chasing
squirrels the Danny’s song skit centers
around a group of friends sitting at a
bar fondly reminiscing about a few
unsavory memories it’s the first day I
ever thought to myself just John Coleman
the CEO of the National Down Syndrome
Society wrote a scathing letter to
Lauren Michaels
criticizing the sketch as insensitive
and derogatory NBC replied with an
apology and thanked Coleman for sharing
his concerns with them number seven
Martin Lawrence nowadays it might be
hard to believe but there was a time
when Martin Lawrence owned Hollywood man
the Martin series was hugely popular and
he even made the jump to the big screen
with bad boys and nothing to lose
despite being one of the hottest
comedians of the 90s
Lawrence was banned from SNL due to an
offensive monologue delivered while
hosting a 1994 episode the rambling
intro spends an absurd amount of time
lambasting women for not taking proper
care of themselves
prompting SNL to ban the comedian it was
a frank and lively presentation and
nearly cost us all our jobs we now
return to the conclusion of Martin’s
monologue number 6
Tiger Woods sketch mocking domestic
violence I offer my profound apology for
these multiple transgressions multiple
so it happened more than once did I say
multiple mocking Tiger Woods is
perfectly fine Saturday Night Live would
have been crazy to not write a skit
after the infidelity scandal broke out
during 2009 thank
giving weekend Elin Nordegren chased her
husband with a golf club before woods
crashed his car and was temporarily
knocked out I was disoriented from the
fall so I stumbled to the other side of
our house and I I lost myself plate
glass window yeah this is what happened
while Florida Highway Patrol found no
evidence of domestic violence
SNL turned it into the punchline with
Kenan Thompson’s Tiger Woods trying to
excuse his progressively worsening
injuries over myself the sketch was
criticized for suggesting that domestic
violence is funny when the husband is
the victim so this time I have a
prepared written statement which I shall
stick to number 5 David Spade mocks
Eddie Murphy’s career celebrities and
politicians are fair game but you should
never throw one of your own under the
bus look children it’s a falling star
make a wish David Spade and Lauren
Michaels learn that the hard way when a
brief Hollywood minute segment ruined
the show’s relationship with Eddie
Murphy SNL owes a lot to the legendary
comedian which explains why Murphy was
shocked and hurt when Spade joked that
his career was on the downturn after to
commercial misses the last thing Eddie
Murphy needed was for his ex-employer to
kick him while he was down 20 years
later they finally put their bad blood
to bed the show was such a big part of
who I am and in my life and I’m so happy
to be back here and uh it’s just a
magical feeling actually feels like
going back to my old high school card
number for Jesus uncrossed this is back
[Music]
Jesus uncross Christoph Waltz’s jesus H
Christ in Jesus uncrossed the trailer
spooks Quentin Tarantino’s Django
Unchained and inglorious basterds by
portraying a renegade version of Jesus
who’s out for revenge against the Romans
who killed him the assignment in the
twist of the decade a few religious
groups did not take kindly to this
over-the-top depiction of their Lord and
Savior you get to heaven say hi to my
dad
SNL angered both Muslims and Christians
prompting the Council on
american-islamic relations to publicly
lambaste Jesus on crossed as distasteful
and disrespectful we doubt anyone
Jesus uncross no more mr. nice Jesus
number three laughing at a blind New
York governor here to publicly address
the issue is New York Governor David
over the decades Saturday Night Live has
supplied great satire on America’s
political system but their governor
paterson sketch is not one of them
since the politician is legally blind
Patterson does require assistance with
some tasks but otherwise is
self-sufficient SNL portrayed the
governor as a mr. Magoo type character
stumbling into and ruining a few
different skits if you don’t believe me
take a look at this graph that I got
the governor was not pleased with the
gag explaining that it perpetuates the
stereotype that the visually impaired
cannot carry out even the most basic of
functions Harper’s appointed senator
must like me be caught totally off guard
and be comically unprepared to take
office number two Norma Donald angers
NBC executive Don ohlmeyer yeah two
things that I’ve never done is beat a
woman and bury all my money in the
backyard Lauren Michaels tends to have
complete control over the comings and
goings of SNL’s cast but there was a
time when it was taken away from him
during the OJ Simpson trial SNL was
known for portraying The Naked Gun actor
as guilty including remarks levelled by
Norm Macdonald during his Weekend Update
segment rumors suggest that these jokes
annoyed Don ohlmeyer NBC’s West Coast
division president and Simpsons friend
leading to the comedian’s dismissal
MacDonald definitely believed this was
the case but it was never outright
confirmed it’s just a matter of opinion
he also thinks that oj is innocent
before we unveil our number-one pick
here are some dishonorable mentions what
if I do a free commercial for Ivanka
it’s just Isis number one Sinead
O’Connor takes on the Pope even after
all these years this still easily stands
out as Saturday Night Live’s most
infamous moment Sinead O’Connor had
already garnered a reputation as a
musician who’s willing to rock the boat
but that was taken into overdrive in
1992 after performing a cover of Bob
Marley’s war the singer tore up a
picture of Pope John Paul the second
while demanding that people fight the
real enemy fight the real enemy the
moment did not help O’Connor’s career
and Joe Pesci jokingly threatened
physical violence during the next SNL
episode I would have grabbed up by your
eyebrows do you agree with our picks
