SNL: Pee-wee Herman Gets Drunk And Beats The S*it Out Of Anderson Cooper

video
» 42 comments

On Saturday Night Live: Ever wonder what Pee Wee Herman is like after 10-15 shots? Andy Samberg and Anderson Cooper find out on tonight’s Digital Short.

The short opens with Samberg and Paul Reubens — better known as Pee-Wee Herman — locking eyes across a crowded bar. The two of them end up on an epic bender that begins with dancing on the bar, assaulting Anderson Cooper and a police officer (in that order) with a chair, and ends with an intervention courtesy of Andy’s friends and the armchair from “Pee Wee’s Playhouse.”

Luckily, Andy and Pee Wee listen to reason, Anderson Cooper’s beautiful mug remains intact, and everyone celebrates their commitment to sobriety with a round of shots. Whoops!

    They may have just single-handedly saved the franchise with this.

    I liked Anderson better on Bravo TV talking to the Nene from the Housewives of Atlanta.

  • mcf1757

    The crazies simply cannot turn it off can they?!! It would awesome to see Anderson host SNL!!!

  • Latin2

    oh, i see there is censorship on here.

    I bet you also deleted your Dire Stricts’ “Money For Nothing” from you playlist and burned all your old copies of Mark Twain.

    It was strangely satisfying to watch Pee Wee Herman beat the s*it out of Anderson Cooper! Kudos to Chairy as well! I had to watch it more than once.

    Pee Wee is the king of “snarky”.

    Also loved Cee-Lo Green’s performance of “Bright Lights, Bigger City”! A damn good song!

    Then Pee Wee probably went to a theatre to masturbate. You sure do have some strange heroes.

    @the real john t, “Then Pee Wee probably went to a theatre to masturbate. You sure do have some strange heroes.”

    The question is, did he go with or without AC.

    I like to keep people guessing.

    He didn’t have AC the first time he was caught. I doubt he needed him.

    @the real john t, “He didn’t have AC the first time he was caught. I doubt he needed him.”

    Oh, that’s right, according to Kathy Griffin AC goes home to masturbate in front of one of his full length mirrors.

    Hey, what he does in his own house is his business. At least he’s not a pervert that has to go to a movie to do it.

    I went to a theatre to masturbate after watching this……

    There are 2 types of males on this earth, Those that masturbate and those that lie about it.

    I did see this live when it aired and my first thought was, wow!! that actor did a great job with makeup, he looks just like anderson cooper… lol

    Congrats to this site. No one and I mean no one like HuffPost or Drudge is talking about Cooper on SNL. Its why you wrap up fish and chips with newspapers, Its about immediate talk. Good on Sarah Devlin. This will make it on Huff and Drudge on Monday. Thank you for being on time. You don’t even smell like fish and chips. Oh and Cooper SNL. Very funny, ” My eyes are a national treasure” He can laugh at himself.

    an assault, someone gets beat up and is bleeding……. really great humor! If it was on FOX the left would not stop about it……

    Wasn’t it O’Reilly who paid 30 million to get rid of a sexual harrassment suit by a co-worker who O’Reilly exclaimed was lying until she produced audio tapes of Bill sharing his sexual fantasies? Strange heroes, indeed.

    I do agree it was in bad taste. But as for FOX having clean hands on this stuff, not so. Exhibit A: The Family Guy (e.g. with stewie, the baby, killing numerous characters…). In fact, the Christian right was going after FOX on a regular basis until FOX News showed up with their right wing programming. Now they don’t care.

    And thank goodness because FOX delivers on what the people want.

  • huntingtonboy

    Who is Sarah Devlin. She defines the internet. It happens, she is there. No other person on any other so called news site is as up to date and plugged in as Sarah. No, this is not her brother.

    Wow. Now we so why these young liberals are so violent. They think its all a big joke! Pathetic…

    There’s a difference between Fox network and Fox News (as illustrated by the recent back and forth between the Simpsons and Fox News).

    And lay off The Family Guy. If you can’t handle Seth McFarland’s brand of humor simply use your remote to change the channel.

    Well, if she defines the internet, the internet certainly can’t define her. I just googled Sarah Devlin and first page came up with a personal trainer, a teenaged student film maker and a model.

    Whether it be FOX or FOX News it is all Rupert.

    Don’t get me wrong, I like the Family Guy, and most of the other FOX programming, including Fox News. Their sports are excellent, the Simpsons, In Living Color, Married with Children, lot’s of great shows through the years. But some of the right winger posts were castigating SNL as if that sort of thing belongs to the exclusively evil progressives. In fact, Fox flew as a network because they were NOT conservative about their programming.

  • libra blue

    @huntingtonboy, “She defines the internet.”

    Over one friggin post about a 3:19 comedy skit? Give me a break!

  • ndanielson

    I think a great match-up would be Piper Palin and Bill Maher. She’d mop the floor with him.

  • omega919

    You all must be the most humorless bunch on the internet. It’s a comedy sketch about Andy Samberg and Pee Wee Herman getting drunk and beating up Anderson Cooper, and somehow it’s turned into a political debate. Can you guys even have sex without turning into a political argument?

    You are right. The only issue relates to the current climate and whether joking about physically beating up a (supposed) news reporter is the message someone like Anderson wants to send at this particular time.

  • Knowledge_Is_Power

    It’s sad that this is what Anderson Cooper’s career has come down to. Sad indeed!

    I guess if no one takes him serious anyway then what can a little yucking up do!? His reputation and career are shot anyway so I guess this is him trying to keep that paycheck rolling in and that celeb status in tact so he can afford that high class lifestyle. And oh yes, keep up his “friend” and those bars he stays stuck in every weekend drinking it up at.

  • Knowledge_Is_Power

    Rumor on Twitter is the Anderson was at that skank bar Saturday night drunk off his a** and made the Peewee skit a reality. It seems he got wasted and had a dance off with some hack semi famous clothes designer.

    Can anyone say midlife crisis!?

    Yep. That might be it. :-)

    Have you ever seen a faiery fight? These three couldn’t bruise anything but each others bums.

    Pee Wee got caught masturbating in a theater back before there was internet porn, dumbass. It’s ridiculous that he lost his career over that considering these days former Disney stars to 50-year-old women regularly flash their skank vaginas, Charlie Sheen can tie up a hooker and trash his hotel room and the President of the US got blowjobs from a fat chick in the Oval Office. Hell, Pee Wee makes me long for purer, more innocent times.

    Progressives are evil, and SNL totally shills for them, no matter the silly rumor that Lorne Michaels is a Republican. I seriously don’t find most of the skits funny, and I can’t stand their audience.

  • possumdearie

    I hate NBC.
