Chapter 1: What are the sketches discussed in this episode?
Andy, you didn't have anything to add. We were talking about spirited ladies. I was just going to add, have a toast on us. I just thought you know something about spirits and I don't know. I thought Beetlejuice's wife would have been pretty obvious. I am now recording.
Hey, speaking of spirited wives.
You just left it on the floor and I kept leaving big.
Speaking of spirited wives, we can fly this over.
Whoa, Beetlejuice is here.
Hey, I got a spirited wife.
I laughed so hard in Beetlejuice 2 when Michael Keaton said, well, my ex-wife's back. It was like the best Beetlejuice line of all time.
And he's basically doing stand-up.
He was doing stand-up. We see that Beetlejuice is ex-wife. We don't realize it yet.

Chapter 2: What is the significance of Beetlejuice's ex-wife?
Guys, first of all, welcome to the Lonely Island Seth Meyers podcast. It's great to see all three of you.
You too.
Great to be here. I got my job.
We're back. All of us are back.
I got my job.
I very much enjoyed the episodes I missed.
You guys did a great job. Thanks, Kevrox. Speaking of the episodes you missed, a little housekeeping.
Please. Here's a part of the show where Seth takes some boxes. I don't know. Is that helpful? Oh, no one asked, but it's welcome. Okay.
I feel like we did not give the proper shout out to the Roots, both for the Radio City concert and the work they did on the actual 50th itself.

Chapter 6: What insights do they share about the Roots?
No, we're going to talk about the James Franco show.
There's three shorts that we're trying to cover today. And what they all have in common is that they're totally forgettable.
Yeah.
And what's interesting about it is that they're forgettable in a way. We've had very few this forgettable. Like we've had bad ones. But they all kind of hold a special place in my memory in different ways of the way they did or didn't work. These three actually just disappeared from my memory.
And maybe it's because we had been at the show long enough that we were starting to be in a rhythm where every short wasn't so special. Or maybe there's just some special thing about these shorts that make them absolutely forgettable.
I would say that James Franco, who is, for my money, a very fun SNL host, down for a lot of stuff, he is in a short called Hey. And it sort of feels like, what, OC parody? Gossip Girl?
Totally is like Gossip Girl parody kind of thing.
And that is, I think, all we have to say about it because it's well acted and doesn't age well.
Yeah. Yeah. And it just I remember even at the time. I mean, I don't want to talk too much about it because it was your arms.

Chapter 7: What was the outcome of the Lego Movie reunion discussion?
I think it was unprecedented. They've done a lot. I feel like they've done a long run of shows, this new group, but I don't think they've done Thursdays in the way that we did.
It was a vote of confidence to be like, we want more SNL, even not on a Saturday.
We want, yeah, primetime 9.30 shows.
Yeah, on Thursday nights, which is historically that's NBC's big night.
It was almost like the players were ready for prime time, you could say.
Oh, good one.
You used to have cheers. Yeah, that was a cheers. Taxi. Family ties. The Cosby Show.
Friends.
Ever heard of any of them, Andy?
