One of Kyle’s best-known recurring characters is a comedian who is really quite bad at stand-up. This character hits home because face it, we’ve all seen this guy. Bruce Chandling appeared six times throughout Kyle’s run, each time more agonizing than the last. In his signature leather jacket and mullet, Bruce is great at being bad and oftentimes t...
In 2019, Baby Yoda made his debut on The Mandalorianand Kyle played him on Weekend Update with a bit of a different take. Over the next six appearances, Baby Yoda (or Grogu) made it quite clear he was nothing like his onscreen persona. From his playboy lifestyle to his beef with Baby Groot, this was an appearance no one was expecting, but once it w...
Kyle is at his best when he does his fake behind-the-scenes shorts. He did a series where he was really putting himself out there to become a better person. Obviously in jest, Kyle strives to be less awkward (which is impossible) and do whatever it takes to make a good impression. In the first outing, “A New Kyle” (Season 44, Episode 1), Kyle think...
In Kyle’s first season, he met his match with the reigning queen of awkward, Vanessa Bayer.In this sketch, Vanessa and Kyle are neighbors but both have a lot of trouble flirting with each other. Ever cringe worthy, the two go toe to toe, and it is difficult to say who is harder to watch. Once again Beck Bennett shows up to throw a wrench in his pla...
Beck and Kyle are back together again as they play young brothers Jared and Spencer. Mom (Cecily Strong) and Dad (Host Liev Schreiber) are quite used to their fighting. But their new friends played by Kenan Thompson and Aidy Bryant are absolutely horrified at their raucous behavior. It’s only when Dad brings the hose out (yes, he keeps one in the h...
The fictional love affair of Kyle and Leslie Jones was the gift that no one knew they needed. As Leslie waxed poetic about how tough it was to meet men and have real relationships, she surprises everyone with the news that she and Kyle have started dating. Kyle, the Cast, and even Lorne Michaels really want Kyle to lose his virginity, but he is mad...
Another insane appearance on Weekend Update introduced us to Scooter, who is the president of Milk Distribution at Dean Foods. Scooter is OUTRAGED at the bad press that milk is getting with all these people choosing non-dairy milk. It sounds silly, but Kyle’s commitment is so fierce to chugging and spraying milk that Che can barely hold it together...
A commercial for a device that lets men go to the bathroom in the middle of the night without having to get out of bed. Sounds perfect, right? Kyle happily explains how men just have to attach the unit that connects to the toilet, so they can urinate comfortably throughout the night. Jennifer Lopezsoon shows up and asks one simple question. How doe...
Kyle plays Douglas, an actor who, along with Miranda (Chloe Fineman), has been cast in a new Del Taco commercial. They are super excited to work with the director (Bennett) and the VP of Branding for Del Taco (Host Adam Driver), who has arrived to supervise the shoot. When they do the first run-through, Chloe is perfection. Kyle, however, needs som...
The lockdown of 2020 was tough on everyone. SNLdid three “at home shows” with cast members doing virtual sketches, zooms, and shorts from the comfort of their own homes while the world was locked down. It was an experiment and some thrived, but none were stranger than Kyle’s video, which included a house party filled with people… all played by Kyle...

- Beers. In a sketch co-starring host Larry David and Beck Bennett, Mooney uses his nostalgic sensibilities to parody the awful, cheesy drama of '90s sitcoms.
- Kyle and Leslie. Mooney’s time at SNL proved that he was a king of pre-tape sketches, likely thanks to his YouTube days. Mooney’s signature self-deprecating pre-tape with Leslie Jones, in which the two played intense, outlandish versions of themselves, created a hilarious and heart-felt fictional love-story.
- Brothers. Long-time friends Mooney and Bennett played two chaotic and needy kid-brothers in this standout sketch featuring host Liev Schreiber. SNL fans will remember how the two wore only goofy Looney Tunes T-shirts and “whitey-tighties” while arguing like toddlers and getting violently sprayed with a garden hose.
- Kyle vs. Kanye. In another glowing example of Mooney’s brilliant, high-key sincerity, “Kyle vs. Kanye”, Mooney finds himself in a plot to hold a rap battle against musical guest Kanye West.
Jun 15, 2022 · NBC Insider Saturday Night Live. Let's Revisit Kyle Mooney's Funniest Sketches and Recurring Characters from SNL. The hilarious Saturday Night Live veteran exits after nine seasons....
- Inside SoCal. Easily my favorite of Kyle Mooney’s many recurring pre-taped sketches (and the one SNL bit I believe best defines his style) is “Inside SoCal” - a deeply amateurish news program hosted by Mooney and Beck Bennett as a couple of young “bros” from the West Coast.
- He-Man And Lion-O. Another MCU Chris (who typically goes by his last name) who appeared on SNL with Kyle Mooney is Guardians of the Galaxy’s Chris Pratt, who plays another iconic hero - He-Man - alongside Taran Killam as Lion-O from Thundercats.
- The House With Chris Hemsworth. Another recurring pre-taped bit featuring both Kyle Mooney and Beck Bennett is a parody of reality shows like Big Brother called “The House” and my personal favorite edition stars the MCU’s Thor actor, Chris Hemsworth, as Mooney and Bennett’s roommate.
- A New Kyle. In, arguably, the best (and most wonderfully meta) of Kyle Mooney’s fake behind-the-scenes bits, the performer dishes on how he still feels unnoticed at the start of his sixth season, especially following the recent news of co-star Pete Davidson’s engagement to pop star Ariana Grande at the time.
