You say people are talking about your tight pants
1:18
down at the local five and dime?
1:20
Well, I find that hard to believe
1:22
since I live in this town.
1:24
And everyone I know is talking about my tight pants.
1:27
Well, I talked to Mayor Grimble the other day,
1:29
and he declared my pants the tightest in the land.
1:33
Now you listen to me, you sick son of a bitch!
1:38
I don't know who you are or where you came from,
1:41
but I'm the only one in this town that can wear tight pants.
1:44
You got it?
1:46
I will end you.
1:48
Don't wake the snake.

-Welcome back to the show, buddy.
2:21
-Thank you. -Uh...
2:23
-Let's just talk about those guys.
2:25
Um, they they live in the town of Grimble.
2:28
-No. Mayor Grimble, -Mayor Grimble.
2:30
-They live in a town. -They live in a town.
2:32
-They're very proud of their tight pants.
2:33
-It must be a fairly big town
2:36
that they didn't pass each other's company before.
2:39
You know, if you think about it.
2:40
-They look similar to me. -They look --
2:42
The fact that they wouldn't know of each other...
2:45
-They've never heard of each other, even.
2:48
-But the-- -Almost the same haircut.
2:49
Almost the same...
2:50
-Pretty much the same haircut. -Yeah, yeah.
2:52
-And the same weird color combination.
2:55
-And yet they didn't know about each other
2:57
prior to that moment.
2:58
And it did not go well. It did not go well.
3:01
-There was a little -- There was little--
3:02
-There was some friction. -There was a tiff.
3:04
-There was a tiff. -There was a tiff at the end.
3:05
But they were very proud that their town.
3:09
-Recognizes their -- -Their eccentricity.
3:13
-Yes. -Yes.
3:14
And their tight trousers.
3:17
-But is it a community of people
3:19
with tight pants in general?
3:21
And they happen to be the two with the tightest pants?
3:24
[ Laughter ]
3:26
-I don't know.
3:27
I know that the one guy, the second guy that came in,
3:30
he'd said that the mayor declared
3:33
that his pants the tightest of the land.
3:35
-One thing -- One thing they can agree on.
3:38
Mayor Grimble is doing a hell of a job.
3:41
-He's doing a hell of a job. -He really is.
3:43
He's a great man. He's a great man.
3:45
-He's a great, great mayor and well deserved.
3:47
-11 consecutive terms.
3:49
-Which is four more than normal.
3:52
-[ Laughs ] Because he changed the law.
3:54
-He did change the law. -He's a little dirty.
3:55
-He's a little dirty. -He's a little dirty.
3:56
-But he gets in there. -Yeah, he get in there and --
3:58
-He makes some declarations and he's just doing a hell of a job.
4:01
It's like, "Mayor, you broke the law,
4:02
but you're doing a good job. Let's keep you around."
4:04
-Yeah, so we'll keep you, Mayor Grimble.
4:05
Will, thank you for coming back here.
4:06
You're upstairs at "Saturday Night Live".
4:08
-Yeah, "Saturday Night Live". -Oh, my gosh.
4:09
You're back hosting the show.
4:12
-Yeah. -Are you musical guests as well?
4:14
-Uh, I am musical guest and-- -As well.
4:17
-I heard Usher was up there. -No, he's background vocals.
4:21
[ Laughter ]
4:23
And it's pronounced Usher.
4:26
He's, uh...
4:27
There's two -- There's two umlauts.
4:29
-Is it umlauts? -Those are umlauts. He's a --
4:31
-I don't know if it's Usher.
4:32
-He's a great little German kid out of Dusseldorf
4:34
-Now, are you sure? -Usher.
4:35
-Usher. -Usher.
4:36
-Oh, I was confusing it with a different singer.
4:38
-Yeah, but he does some great background vocals,
4:42
-and, uh... -That's what he's known for.
4:43
-That's what he's known for.
4:44
-And now you're gonna do any recurring sketches
4:46
that we like and we love?
4:48
-Uh, I'm gonna do the, um, uh, the Lehman Brothers, of course.
4:53
-Thank you. Yeah. -[ Cheers ]
4:57
-Yeah. So you're gonna do Lehman Brothers?
4:59
-Open -- Cold open. -Cold open, Lehman Brothers.
5:01
I'm gonna do, uh, fat, hairy. -Fat, hairy's big.
5:05
Garth McCringle.
5:06
-I'm gonna do my over-the-top gay waiter.
5:08
-Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. -Yeah, yeah.
5:10
-That's a classic. -Yeah.
5:11
-That is a classic.
5:12
-A lot of people know your-- -So, the big four.
5:14
-The big four?
5:16
-The quad. -The quad.
5:17
-You're gonna do the quad.
5:18
Now, everyone knows your famous sketches.
5:20
They're classic ones,
5:22
which you're the funniest human being on earth.
5:24
And I don't know if they have The Best of Will Ferrell DVDs.
5:27
-There's three of them. -There's three volumes.
5:29
-Yeah.
5:32
And you're funny in all of them.
5:33
But what I always like to tell people is that the sketches
5:36
where it wasn't funny, where it bombed.
5:38
-Yes.
5:40
-Was some of the funniest things I've ever seen you do.
5:41
-Yeah, those were some painful but hilarious moments.
5:45
-Yeah, because I like to just--
5:47
-Do you remember? You remember Gabe Kaplan?
5:49
Do you remember that sketch? Where...
5:51
-Wait, wait, wait, let me get this right.
5:53
I'm trying to see if I can remember this.
5:55
You were a man who worked in an office building.
5:56
-Who's a giant fan? -A giant fan of Gabe Kaplan.
6:00
-From "Welcome Back Kotter".
6:01
-Was the star of "Welcome Back, Kotter".
6:03
And I procured my look to look exactly like Gabe Kaplan.
6:06
-So, you had a mustache? -A huge Afro, a mustache.
6:11
-You had those things in your elbows?
6:12
-Elbow patches on my corduroy jacket.
6:15
And it was the day that Gabe Kaplan actually came
6:18
-by the office for some reason. -Yeah.
6:20
-And no one told me he was there because I was in the bathroom.
6:23
-And no one went to get me. -That's right.
6:26
-And I was livid, and, uh. And I was really hurt.
6:29
-It was John Goodman? -John Goodman. It was Molly.
6:30
-Molly Shannon.
6:32
-And, um, it played to silence.
6:35
It played to such silence.
6:36
Except at one point you hear, "Hee, hee."
6:40
It was one really way high up in the rafters laugh.
6:43
Just a, "Huh, huh.'
6:45
-They kind of barely got out. -Yeah, kind of barely got out.
6:47
-Do you remember you did one?
6:48
It was a TGI Friday's waiter.
6:50
-Oh, uh...
6:52
-I don't know what the sketch was,
6:53
but I remember it was bombing so hard
6:55
that the whole cast came out to the floor
6:56
and stood behind the camera and watched you eat it.
6:59
[ Laughter ]
7:01
And you were going like,
7:02
"Well, you have to try the bloomin' onions."
7:05
And it was deathly silent.
7:08
-I don't remember that one. -Yeah.
7:10
-I don't.
7:12
-You would always commit you were the best at committing.
7:13
-Was that where the holy moly came from?
7:15
-Oh, yeah, maybe.
7:17
-The holy moly where one of the writers would say,
7:18
"I need a holy moly on this one."
7:20
I would try to go as big as I possibly could.
7:22
-You got to give me the holy moly on this one.
7:25
And you would give them the holy moly.
7:26
-It might have been that TGI Friday's one.
7:28
-We got you -- You did the holy moly once.
7:29
There was a character. It didn't recur.
7:31
It came on once on "Weekend Update".
7:32
Remember, you were a little kid
7:33
who wouldn't get out of the pool?
7:35
-I don't remember that.
7:37
-And Tina kept going, "Will, you get out of that pool.
7:39
You've been there too long." And you go, "No!"
7:41
You're splashing. You're in a little kiddie pool.
7:43
-I don't remember that.
7:45
But I remember doing Jacob Silj for the first time.
7:46
My glasses fogged up and...okay.
7:50
Will did Jacob Silj was this character.
7:52
-That was a character who suffered from voice immodulation
7:54
where I -- [ Immodulation ] I couldn't --
7:56
This was a normal tone. This was the way I spoke.
7:58
And that I was not able to lower the tone of my voice.
8:03
-Yeah. -Or modulate it.
8:05
-Or modulate it either way.
8:06
-[ Immodulation ] You couldn't go higher or lower.
8:07
This is a disease.
8:09
-[ Immodulation ] This is a disease affected by half of 1%.
8:11
It is a real disease. Stop laughing at me.
8:16
-And my glasses, uh-- -Yeah, fogged up.
8:19
-Fogged up. -But you weren't laughing.
8:20
-I was laughing. -You were laughing.
8:22
-But I was off camera. -Right.
8:23
-So I was being mean.
8:25
-And that started to get me to laugh.
8:26
You just started getting hot because I was laughing so hard
8:28
that his glasses steamed up and it's on your --
8:31
it's on your DVD or something.
8:33
Or on an extra or something like that.
8:34
But now you're here.
8:35
Your "SNL" is going to be super fun times.
8:37
-Uh, "Casa de mi Padre". -Right.
8:39
-This movie you did, Matt Piedmont directed it.
8:41
-Yeah, yeah. -Did Andrew Steele write this?
8:43
-No. -Andrew Steele did, yeah.
8:44
-It was one of the funniest movies
8:45
where Will spoke all in Spanish.
8:47
-Entirely in Spanish. Yes.
8:48
-I don't know how you would do that,
8:49
but it was unbelievable.
8:50
I want to say congratulations on that.
8:52
-Thank you. Thank you very much. -Check that out if you can.
8:54
-Thank you. -Ridiculous movie.
8:56
-It is so funny. -It is ridiculous, but...
8:57
-And then other big things going down.
9:00
Look at this. You were a king for a day?
9:05
-For one day.
9:08
I was king, and I think Mayor Grimble is right there.
9:12
-He's not in the photo?
9:14
-No, this is in Mardi Gras.
9:16
And I was the king of the Bacchus Parade.
9:18
-Oh. -Which. Yes.
9:21
-Yeah. I mean, that's big. Are you sure?
9:22
-Right?
9:23
Are you sure it's Bacchus or Backus, like Jim Backus?
9:24
-Oh, Jim Backus.
9:26
-Jim Backus from "Gilligan's Island".
9:27
-Mr. Howell. -Mr. Howell.
9:28
-He throws a parade every year. -[ As Mr. Howell ] Lovey. Yeah.
9:30
-Was that Jim Backus? -Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
9:34
[ As Mr. Howell ] Lovey. Lovey.
9:36
-That's actually an authentic New Orleans accent.
9:38
-That is not. That is not true.
9:40
-[ As Mr. Howell ] I want some crayfish.
9:41
But wait. The Bacchus There, I'm about to --
9:45
-I'm about to hurt someone with that--
9:46
-What are you throwing?
9:48
I'm throwing a tiny cowbell at them.
9:50
Yeah. Yeah. It's pretty great.
9:53
This was a -- This was a blast.
9:56
-It was fun?
9:57
-Mardi Gras was amazing to be a part of this event,
9:59
and they wanted me to extend an invite to you, Mr. Jimmy Fallon.
10:01
They want you to be the next King of Bacchus
10:03
for next Mardi Gras.
10:06
-Me?
10:08
-And they were thinking, why not do --
10:10
Why not do a week of shows in New Orleans,
10:12
have all the former kings of Bacchus come on as guests,
10:16
and then end it with a Mardi Gras parade?
10:18
-Boom! -Hey, you're good at this.
10:21
-Right?
10:22
-I will -- I will talk about this.
10:23
-I will come and be a guest. -You will?
10:25
-Assuming I'm available.
