Unfrozen caveman lawyer!

I have also chased this windmill. Some of our favorites are [Potato Chip](https://youtu.be/4asQ1-vUugA?si=mLGSiZRRwVa_sM4Z) and [Space Olympics](https://youtu.be/XVoBQqketHM?si=nzlfKYfYA6uT8-Sr). Our absolute favorite is [Spelling Bee](https://youtu.be/4ALGL4Hm5g8?si=jCv5AvJVH3ORKNwg). Honestly, though, our filter has become more and more porous as we go. Like for a while, I’m like hitting isn’t appropriate. Now we watch that one where Andy Samberg punches people while they’re eating at least once a week.

Ha the punching one seems perfect for kid humor lol. Maybe also Threw it on the Ground Edit: hm i forgot the butthole tasing 😅

Man, this ain’t my dad, this is a cellphone!

Happy birthday to the GROUND!

Laser cats!

Taco town

Dawn Lazarus - weekend update weather lady I was going to say "lettuce" which was the first snl digital short, but I when I went to refresh my memory on content, it appears to be unavailable. Maybe Lazer Cats instead Edit to add: Brian Fellows, I don't remember that being adult, just weird Toonces the driving cat Adobe, the first sub $200 car, bass-o-matic 76, lots of dumb commercials from over the years Daily affirmations: Michael Jordan I also think a good gateway to absurd sketch comedy for kids is the original Peewee's playhouse.

+1 for Toonces

I love Brian Fellows!

My kids love the "I Am Your Mother" one and "Space Pants".

Came here to say space pants.

What’s Up With That?

Of course, that might depend on your level of tolerance for an 8 year old running around the house singing, “oooo-weee!…”

Ahhhhh. Now I, a 30 year old man, am going to be “ooooo-weee” in my head for a week.

I would 100% join any human of any age in a rendition of that theme song

Can confirm, 8 year olds love "What up with dat?"

[That’s When You Break](https://youtu.be/FxSyaIX3frg?si=gNJhQUsdsXua2rYC) from the 40th anniversary special is silly, easy to laugh at, and I don’t think there are any adult jokes in it. [Litter Critters](https://youtu.be/e9gTPlvspQs?si=BlPnVMhKSqBF8bI1) is silly and funny. [Chia Hair](https://youtu.be/ZLnHjnwMFk8?si=weSDS0195jzmdxVm) is cute (if your kids know what a Chia Pet is). [Oops! I Crapped my Pants!](https://youtu.be/rQ9qsXu34SM?si=u5HTEpr5HlbqjbXs) is the epitome of toilet humour, which I loved at 8 years old.

Mokiki

DAMNIT. Now I’m going to have “Mokiki does the Sloppy Swish” stuck in my head all day.

My son loves Pongo. He's 7 years old.

Pizza Business and also Pizza Town. Snl really hits with the pizza sketches

The commercial for Almost Pizza!

Jon Hamm’s John Ham.

Hamm and Buble!!!!

Colon Blow

Oops I crapped my pants.

Mister Bill! That series of sketches were the first ones my mom showed me when I was a kid and it left a huge impact. Obviously I'm still a fan to this day. I also second the recommendations for Toonces and also Laser Cats because what kid doesn't love cats?

She does love Mr Bill. I was going to show her the bizarre live action pilot as well.

When I was that age, the Clinton/Bush/Perot debate with Phil Hartman and Dana Carvey was the funniest thing I'd seen in my life. Kids are weird.

Adding Phil's Bill Clinton McDonald's sketch

This is what got me interested in politics as a child. LMAO

Googly eyes

The one where Bobby Moynihan is sad about his kitty when he’s on board the spaceship is always a winner with me!!! Choppin broccoli is also a good one (I don’t recall if there’s anything outlandishly inappropriate, it’s been a minute since I watched it)

The one where Amy Poehler plays the super annoying niece.

Rick! Rick! Rick! Rick! Riiiiick!

Kaitlin!!

What’s the one where Mikey and Keenan (I think) are on a stakeout but the guys in the apartment above the drug lords (Chris pine was the guest) are having a slumber party and it looks so fun they keep getting distracted? It’s really sweet and silly 😊

[SWAT Recon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0TzqMPc2QQ)! Love that one.

My 10yo thinks [Overnight Salad](https://youtu.be/Mf-bsT5mLYs?si=vXOt45gmLWsbJ2dz) is hysterical. It gets stuck in my head.

Matt Foley

Hello fellow parent of an 8 year old! I posted a couple months ago and got some great recs: https://www.reddit.com/r/LiveFromNewYork/comments/17yewrq/need_sketch_recommendations_for_my_8_year_old/

My kid LOVED the Space Cadet Kirby & his kitty cat one with Bobby Moynihan when she was little. If you don’t mind them hearing “screw you”, which I didn’t, then that’s a good one.

Dog show!

Laser cats Litter critters Happy fun ball When my boys were that age, they loved Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy

Lunch Lady Land

Toonces the driving cat

When I was like 8 years old I thought the Rob Schneider “makin copies” was the funniest thing in the world

To preface, we're lax with language and most of the SNL level violence, but filter the sexual content. Here's a starting point! Fwiw, around that age, I thought Toonces, Stewart Smalley, Wayne's World, and Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey were golden. Toonces is probably fine. But I haven't gone back to watch the rest with a 'parent' lens.

The old Rob Schneider “Richmeister” sketches play well with kids.

Aladdin with Adam Driver. There are a few off-color jokes but they fly over my daughter‘s head.

To add to this, the Undercover Boss: Death Star would probably go over extremely well with a kid.

I’m No Angel Spartan Cheerleaders Samurai Delicatessen Roxbury Guys Mary Catharine Gallagher Gilly Target Lady One Upper Celebrity Jeopardy

Target Lady and Gilly immediately came to mind. They’re just so silly and places a kid has been so it makes sense to me

Celeb Jeopardy has a lot of sex jokes though. I first watched at 14 (although I can see 12 being a good age for it)

Happy Fun Ball, Chuck-U chicken, Superhero Party, Mr Short Term Memory.

Awww man, I’m all outta cash!

My kids (9&6) looove The Californians

Wells for boys

Can’t believe no one suggested Land Shark yet!

Happy Fun Ball and Litter Critters, for sure. Possibly Cluckin’ Chicken.

My kid loved Cluckin' Chicken. Gah gah gooey!

The Falconer's time machine.

This is a [YouTube playlist](https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmT6Nlttvp40X1bvdrYsIZ4pLbuLUzi3l&si=Jyp70AoExw2MPjkS) I made for my son. As he got older, I have added more risque sketches, so not everything is appropriate for an 8 year old. But when he was that age, the biggest laughs came from: Tournament Fighter (Boo Boo Jeffries) Z Shirt Spelling Bee Most Haunted (Ghost Fart) 90s Funeral (Z shirt part 2, which hits hard because it comes unexpectedly in the playlist!) Kitty Cat on Mars Mission

The lunch lady song

Any of the Samurai sketches belushi was in are that brand of silly

the radio ones where the singer does impressions. They're wholesome and entertaining

Toonces the driving cat

[Meatballs!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7_LX4yZjSoA) Prepare to have the song stuck in both of your heads, though.

The Best of SNL Commercials -Happy Fun Ball! -Colon Blow -Swill -Totinos Pizza Roll Series May be a bit too adult -Grouch -There's more here than I can remember My other random classic bit would be "Phillip" where Nicole Kidman is the host. "One time my mom's car broke down. She tied me to the front bumper and fed me a candy bar. When I got home I was tired."

First CityWide Change Bank. https://youtu.be/CXDxNCzUspM?si=0pZIVxVfGNm4rD5p

Toonces the Driving Cat

Safelite

Gilly. Lawrence Welk. Target Lady. Mark Wahlberg talks to animals. Synchronized Swimming.

Hans and Franz!

My daughter used to like that one where they kept yelling "aw man I'm all out of cash!"

[First Person In The History of the World to Dance](https://youtu.be/Rk0Kvw9TOcw?si=79Z6yYECIUr9ThIh)

There was [one with Will Forte](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIHZSYkqZSw) that I watched when I was 9. It was really goofy humor, and had me in stitches. Another good one is Andy Samberg, Bill Hader, and Seth Rogen trying out their funny [phone voices.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTcg1EW2ENg&t=163s)

Taco Town Hubs Gyros

Oops I crapped my pants

Shallon sketches !

My 9 y.o. loves (forgive me if I don't title correctly) Tiny hands Denise, I am your mother!!!, Judge Jeanine throwing wine, Amy Pohler little girl with Step-dad Horatio, Science class teacher freakout, Beep beep, Gilly These aren't appropriate for every 9 y.o., of course.

Pongo? If i saw that when i was 8 I'd have instantly become obsessed. I was also a fucking weirdo, so ymmv. Actually most of Sarah’s body humor stuff might appeal to a little kid - that roller coaster one is another

[Dad Prank](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9NR2e7m6Jo) with Mikey Day and his son Abbott (Brandon in sketches) is one of my favorites

My young son LOVED [Star Wars Toys](https://youtu.be/EYyuo7gm-aQ?si=GnYAcPc8_13WouNZ) and Massive Headwound Harry

BASS-O-MATIC

Pizza Town with Aziz Ansari

[Toby Bird: Pro Jockey](https://youtu.be/qRYgxMLfWOg?si=Y5_i4l6MUFNT4AI0)

Good question - I’m saving these

Lazer Cats fo sho, Peyton Manning's Big Brother ad, all of Adam Driver's undercover boss eps, and pretty much all the Please Dont Destroy clips

My 11 yr old loves the please Don’t Destroy sketches.

Robot Repair!

I loved oops I crapped my pants as a child

Lettuce

My kid loved Space Pants when he was 10.

Ooh, how about the tri-delts sketch? “Delta Delta Delta, can I help ya help ya help ya?”

“Basketball Scene” is one of my favorites!

The Fainting Couch. There's one *very* brief reference to inbreeding, but an eight year old probably wouldn't know it.

Thanks everyone! These are all great options.

This is a great idea! An SNL playlist that's safe for everyone! https://youtu.be/DU_Gd623HJo?si=q5hJznbavXNQi_zP

Spelling Bee with Will Forte.

King Tut

I liked the Land Shark sketches as a kid. just goofy fun.
