Kenan Thompson recalls starting to “panic” while rehearsing SNL’s “Beavis and Butt-Head” sketch because he was laughing so hard he couldn’t speak.
One of the most impressive parts of the April 13 episode of “Saturday Night Live” was Kenan Thompson‘s ability not to break during the hilarious “Beavis and Butt-Head.” During the episode, a NewsNation anchor (Heidi Gardner) attempts to interview a professor (Thompson) about AI, but the conversation is interrupted when Thompson’s professor notices that two audience members, played by host Ryan Gosling and Mikey Day, look exactly like Beavis and Butt-Head.
While Gardner and Gosling couldn’t help but laugh through the duration of the sketch — which has been viewed more than 10 million times on YouTube in the five days since its air — Thompson somehow kept a straight face.
