“World War II: Lost in New York” killed me.
The sex is insane
Zerxes was a Persian king yeet
Becky is a cutie
....I wonder how people find this funny...but it must not be my humor...
Rebecca low key said this for no reason my b RU-clip toxic contagious
Devan Miller but if no one cares, why did you comment? If you didn't care you wouldn't have commented...
Devan Miller cool, but I didn't ask you so that means I really don't care.
Rebecca awhhhh no one cares
The way Kenan dropped that vase spoke to me
Sound’s about right.
This is everyday look, “errands, brunch, execution.” 😂
Damn.... at the start she's pulling a classic movie type cleopatra with that expression. Already knew she was good but damn... she's *_GOOD_* for sure!
What did the Italian tailor angrily shout at the Greek playwright who was leaving the store in a hurry?

Euripides! Get-a back here and pay-a!
Delete it that clay pot thing was awesome they should merch that
I have a project about Cleopatra due next week so I’m researching
Cleopatra was a black princess, but it's still a good skit
Also, even native Egyptians from that time period have been proven to have less sub saharan African dna than modern Egyptians. They've been found to be more closely related to natives of the Levant and Anatolia. Plus, Cleopatra herself she greek.
Lol Nope. She was white. She was Greek. Greeks ruled over Egypt during that time period.
HAHAHAHA. She was Greek.
I’ll Like any skit with Cecily in it
Make it snappy we got "Rezies"
Queen: Delete it
Zeus: *Drops vase*
They misted the point to do a incest joke
Paiglin from crazy rich Asians
Cleopatra who’s born closer to the invention of the iPhone then the pyramids. Just to let you know.
I’m pretty sure we watched this in social studies🤔
"We fight but the sex is insane" ded
Here we go, I LOVE SNL but everybody and they're mother knows that cleopatra was a African queen why does Hollywood insist on giving us a white cleopatra????
Also, even native Egyptians from that time period have been proven to have less sub saharan African dna than modern Egyptians. They've been found to be more closely related to natives of the Levant and Anatolia. Plus, Cleopatra herself was greek.
Cleopatra wasn't a real Egyptian. She was a defendant of a Greek General Ptolemy who was gifted Egypt by Alexander the great after conquering egypt. Her family adopted a lot of Egyptian culture to make the transition to a new dynasty easier.
"Becky's whole thing is she's a nightmare"
OMG Becky same
Can I be Cecily's slave please.
.....xerxes was a persian king...
When the embalmers in Ancient Egypt mummified someone, they took the phrases "Pick your brain" and "Paying out the nose" to a whole new level!
This would be perfect if the MUA wasn't reading off the que cards because she's really good
1:36 "And now I have become Link, Destroyer of Potteries."
💼看美女🐶露点私㊙️视频➕微信what6585👑是突然同一有一个尴尬uu uu
The hidden tails more like it!
They shoulda put diodes on the snakes eyes!
I just learned that The Guy Who Just Bought a Boat is a descendant of Cesar.
"Wassup you dirty horuses!" hahahahaha dead
That was literally Caesar in De Bello Gallico omg
Kudos to the person who made up all those Egyptian based puns and jokes.
...I want this to be a reality TV show XD
“OH that me omg delete that oh delete that”
*Drops vase*
PERFOOCTION
Cleopatra: eww delete that oooh delete
Drops it
The amount of puns in here. I’m so proud.
Becky is something Fred Armisen Would have played back in the days.
Lol the hair salon I go to is owned by an Egyptian woman named Isis😂
It's hard to listen to that dialog, but I just like seeing her face cause it looks like a cartoon and that somehow calms me down
Lol my name is Isis 😊
“Are u a cat because I worship u”
LMAO WHEN CESAR CAME IN
Kate at 2:03
As soon as I saw Awkwafina, I knew this was gonna be a funny skit fkdjfjfjdjf
Lmao this is so funny when you know Egyptian history
Sucks .
I Cecily strong!!!!
i liked it unusual sketch
1:01
Caesar doesn’t ever date cleopatra, I believe either Augustus or Octavian dates her.
Jess Gray ohhhh now i remembered thx for the history lesson xoxo
They slept together. She claimed her son was his. The Roman dislike of her and the idea her son might be recognized by Caesar as an heir helped fuel his assassination. Augustus hated her.marc Antony, one of Caesars friends became her lover and fathered kids
Now seeing the behind the scenes to the makeup, I appreciate this scene so much more
Amy Mitman so do i
I can't figure out why ppl in Hollywood call girls cats or kittens or bunnies ?????
That girl couldn't stop looking at her Scrip Cards like not once
The Euripides joke was pretty good. If you blinked you'd miss it. Did Kenan mispronounce "Anubis bacchanal"? Lol He said, "Anna-bus bacchanal". No idea who Awkwafina is, or why she's named after a bottled water brand, but she was pretty funny and seemed comfortable with the cast. :).
She got famous recently because of Ocean's 8 and Crazy Rich Asians. She's also a rapper. She thought the name was funny (At one point her name was "Dass-Ani").
Ceasar is hot af (Alex Moffatt!)
Hello, please be kind and love yourself, have a good day! 🤗🤗🤗
You too, Unicorn!
Becky looks like Edna Mode
2:13
Yes you called me?
Damn right he spoils you he gave you egypt
*looks around* It me? Lmao 😂
Becky is a queen
My culture is NOT YOUR COMEDY SKETCH
(JK)
Isis is actually an Egyptian goddess that was much higher than the pharaoh. She was Osiris’s wife, who put him back together after being dismantled.
In my opinion, these types of jokes didn't seem to match Nora's (Awkwafina's) personality. If you watch her in Crazy Rich Asians, the jokes she says sound more like her. I still love this sketch, though.
Awkwafina is great she could be a full cast member. Would Awkwafina be the first Asian to be full cast on snl? Snl can use Asian representation its not Harvard.
What the hell happened this episode? Every section I saw hurt to watch segment included. It can't be Awkwafina's fault. Did the writers quit?
This one was definitely a miss for me, but kudos on basing all your jokes from wikipedia. Truly no one is more talented
Not funny to me at all.
My nickname is Cleopatra lol
Pointless
I wish they had put the teleprompter off to the side so the gal would at least look like she's looking at Cleo instead of forward. It was too distracting.
I watch this so many times a day it is so funnnnt
The Asian one is kinda awkwardly unfunny.
We fight but the sex is In Sane!
Is that Peik Lin?
Igot all the jokes..although i love how they just made it part of the daily egyptian convo........wow and by some of the comments here..There really are some Debbie Downers....Wonk..wonk wah
Akwafina is a mood
I'm still waiting for the funny part.
What the fuck is an Aquafina
Xerxes and becky😂😂😂
Dearest SNL awesome
In what alternate universe was this made where the History Channel actually airs history?
Awkwafina is so cute.
The woman stylist's name is Awkwafina? Hahahahahahahaha😂😂😂😂😊😂
Annoying @@
That Asian women sucks omg
Cecily looking thick 😍
*PERFOOCTION*
Executions..,lol
She's a Nail.Technician...lol
