    His George Washington sketch this weekend was an instant classic. Absolutely brilliant.
  • Not to sound prudish but I truly appreciate a comedian who’s hilarious without dropping f-bombs every minute and talking about crude things! Nate is an example of someone who is successfully funny just by talking about everyday things that people can relate to! His deadpan humor just cracks me up! 😂🤣😂. Soooo happy and proud of him hosting SNL!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

    “I’m Ralph Lauren. My friends call me Polo.” 😂
  • @kimclarke5018
    He killed it on SNL on Saturday . The George Washington sketch was off the charts funny and epic.
  • @ellengrace4609
    Actually, that “my friend Michael has some sketch ideas” is a great sketch idea. 😂
  • @lisas2538
    His delivery in the Washington sketch, the delivery that we all kinda know…..he killed it. He was so funny. So good. I’m happy for him. He seems like a good guy.
  • @jetplane2204
    I was at the Wichita show. The first minute I was like……is he drunk?!? Surely not. Then he told us the allergy story and it all made sense. Still a great show!
  • He crushed it on SNL. The monologue was great, and he had two out-of-the-park home runs with the George Washington sketch and the Soul Food sketch
  • @tajr.2650
    His Washington sketch on SNL had me CRYING. Funniest skit ever.
  • @EvesRevenge
    I luv Nate/Nathaniel/Nathan whatever the different airports recognize and limits him, in order to fly…😂. He’s a gem!
  • @vene_unsweetened
    If only I had a dollar for every time I’ve watched the “My wife is the man of the house” bit. He’s naturally funny and seems like such a good guy. Hope SNL has him back.
  • @susanhardie5440
    Aweee Nate...all of America is pulling for you and your family. We adore you! 🥺
  • @JellyRoll
    Nate Bargatze is incredible - hilarious interview - like so fun
  • @shelbygoelz
    'Trrying to do the RIGHT thing, for my DUMB body,' I feel you
  • @davebarrett33
    Nate it’s hilarious! Once I saw him in his first Netflix appearance, I was hooked. Plus, he seems so genuine and with no airs. I’m so happy he’ll be on SNL. He deserves it. When my sister was going through treatment for cancer, we watched a lot of Nate and it helped both of us. Thank you!
  • @MarcelRSecours
    He nailed SNL. Many of the skits were the best I’ve seen in decades of the show. His stand-up shows on Prime are also fantastic.
  • “He was a good guy, ‘Bless his heart.’”. 🤣🤣🤣 we all know what that means. 🤣🤣🤣
  • @robhood8218
    Nate really deserves all of the recognition he is finally getting. I had tickets to a show last Feb and we got a flat tire in a snow storm and missed the show. I emailed his assistant and she told us to pick any show we wanted to attend even if it was sold out and she left my fiancé and I two tickets to the Knoxville show with better seats than I had before, and threw in two meet and greet passes. There were only maybe seven or eight people with meet and greet passes and we got to talk with Nate back stage and it was such an enjoyable memory. He was so humble and kind.
  • @vickisoup
    He’s my current favorite, hands down. He’s clean, perfect timing and just plain ol’ hilarious!
