Join Seth Meyers as he sits down with fellow SNL alum and comedy-music sensations The Lonely Island (Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone) to discuss their wildly popular and groundbreaking series of SNL Digital Shorts that aired on Saturday Night Live beginning in 2005. Episode by episode they'll discuss how each short was created, what the response to it was at the time, and what impact, if any, it still has today. Aided by Seth, the guys will relive their time at SNL and reminisce on the nearly 50-year-old show from a time when putting short comedy sketches on the internet was so novel that they maybe even helped launch YouTube to do it. Along the way they'll talk all things SNL from guests, fellow cast members, and favorite live sketches including many that never aired.

This week The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers start off with a shocking update for one of their members. Don’t worry he’s okay...more or less. But despite the jokes…it is very serious and we all wish him well. IN ADDITION they talk about the 2009 Twilight-inspired digital short starring a young up-and-coming musician named Taylor Swift. Taylor has been in the news lately for her engagement to the Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce. And yes we put that in this description for dem clicks! They also talk about Taylor’s episode that started off with her own host-written monologue song and Seth apologizes for not understanding her songwriting skills. And then Andy gets to talk about the first part of one of his favorite recurring sketches Bunny Business. And Akiva shows some clips from Raw Deal with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Dirty Harry with a farting dog. All that and more this week!
We love you Jorm!!
