Watch Kyle Mooney take awkwardness to a whole new level in this 'SNL' sketch:
For many Kyle Mooney fans, this season of Saturday Night Live has been a little lackluster. With the loss of his partner-in-crime Beck Bennett, and the arrival of Please Don't Destroy taking over the digital shorts, Mooney hasn't really gotten an opportunity to lead a sketch in quite some time. Happily, this SNL sketch lets Mooney be his awkward self in all its glory.
Bradford is visiting New York for the first time, staying with his cousin Katie . The two are out to lunch with Ego Nwodim waiting for another friend to arrive. Brian finally arrives saying he had the craziest morning. Gardner clarifies for Bradford that Brian is their college friend who always has some amazing story, to which Mooney responds "that's amazing," the first sign of his intense awkwardness.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Carmichael starts to tell his story about having lunch with his boss at a French café. After almost every sentence, Mooney interjects with some exclamation, such as "Oh, here we go," or "Oh no, I think I see where this is going," even though the story is just beginning. In the story, the waiter comes up to Carmichael and his boss and offers them an extra cheese crêpe, but when they go to eat it, it's actually chocolate.
It is difficult to encapsulate Mooney's unique awkwardness that makes this sketch so funny. Mooney has always excelled at these cringe characters who say the wrong thing at every opportunity. It has been a little while since Mooney has gotten to show off his awkwardness this season, especially since he no longer has Bennett to play alongside. However, it was exciting to see a return to form, or rather a return to awkwardness, from Mooney.
