One of my favorites. I still quote this. I’ve thought it was something Will Ferrell wrote himself or had the most part in writing, and just wrote the stupidest thing he could. It has his name all over it. They just didn’t realize how funny is was gonna be. Especially the Dr. Poop doing the robot part. That’s when Molly Shannon and Will Ferrell lose it. it seems that Molly loses it first. She is still a sucker for his humor, like when they do the cheesy host characters. This sketch could’ve easily went into the cut for time or in the basket. Glad it didn’t. Thank God.. Yikes... That was-a rough.

There’s some older ones from the early 1990s. But this is super funny

Fun fact: The reason they are all cracking up is they weren't expecting Tim Meadows to walk through the door. In the dress rehearsal it was a different actor playing Dr. Poop. That was the first time seeing Meadows do the bit and the unexpectedness of it all caused them to lose it.

Christopher Edmiston so many false versions of the story. Will Farrell wrote the sketch (perhaps not exclusively). It’s true that they weren’t expecting Dr Poop to come out and do what he did .. which was “the robot” dance. Then, Molly Shannon turns to Will Farrell while breaking character, laughing. Will Farrell says “I couldn’t think of anything else”.. while also breaking.. because that wasn’t in the lines where he says “I couldn’t think of anything else”. He wrote it. It was an odd sketch that turned funnier as time went on and is now more of a cult classic.

It seems like some of them missed/forgot their lines and Ferrell had to improvise on the spot because from there on the things went really awkwardly strange.

The script would read like this: "Doctor. Parents. Baby. Make something up, I don't care."

“Your father may never again have what we call a human face.” “What? We were here about our baby!?”
