Taylor Lemoine Lorne, the producers at SNL, and the host for the week decide what scripts become full sketches based on what they liked from the table reads, so even though Che and Jost are the head writers that doesn’t mean that they’re the only ones who are deciding what goes on the show. So if you’re gonna call out Che and Jost then you might as well be mad at everyone involved in making the sketches.

@Juno the exaggerated blood is to heavily contrast against the serious, realistic tone of the movie it was trying to imitate. It's not the excessive blood that's funny, it's the sharp turn the sketch took. The extended length of bleed time lets the audience have a moment to react to what was happening. I'm only mildly surprised I had to explain this because autism, unlike god, is real.

It's rare (and so difficult to pull off) when a sketch is pitch perfect in every moment, and on top of that, has a huge twist/reversal that completely works with what came before it. Amazing.

I just watched it the first time. Was about to cry when that happened. Definitely a tear stopper.

Nobody cares. Williams was a wonderful actor and a mildly amusing comedian. Dead Poets Society was one of the all time stupid, juvenile melodramatic crap that was ever filmed which is exactly why this sketch is so hilarious.

First time I watched this I was not expecting that whatsoever and then it happened and I have never laughed so hard.

There is a "Champion Lamps" light bulb box on the shelf in the office..... there was in the original also. Someone went crazy on detail.

One of the best SNL skit of all time. Period.

This is my absolute favorite sketch SNL has done!! I had already seen “Dead Poets’ Society” two years prior to seeing this for the first time (and loved it), so I was already familiar with it and the ending. The acting in this is SUPERB!! Seeing them play it straight is fantastic! And then when.......THAT moment happened, I busted out laughing, harder than I had ever laughed before the first time I saw it. I have come back to it NUMEROUS times after initially seeing it, and it STILL makes me laugh!! I LOVE THIS SKETCH!!!!
