Hilarious: Saturday Night Live and Adam Driver Airplane Baby Skit Nails It

I travel to 20+ countries a year sharing my firsthand knowledge of reward travel, travel credit card deals, travel tips and more.

It’s pretty amazing that Saturday Night Live (SNL) has been on the air for almost 50 years; the show began in 1975 and for many, has turned into appointment viewing. There’s no arguing that some of the world’s funniest comedians have come out of the NBC show. You may agree, not all the sketches are funny but there does seem to be one or two hilarious skits on each episode. RELATED VIDEO: Saturday Night Live Destroys Southwest Airlines in Hilarious Skit

The skit was received with praised and viewers took to YouTube to share their thoughts. Some of the top comments on YouTube include:
“Adam’s willingness to go ALL THE WAY IN on every single sketch is both terrifying and wonderful.” ~ @Prederick

“Adam’s baby behaviors are so realistic, it’s like he’s studied them somehow. 😁” ~ @laalaa99stl

“I work with babies around that age and this was 100% baby representation at its finest. Such smooth transition between the peek a boo and large poop. The scream after poop is optional, but I liked how Adam D delivered it.” ~ @MargaretWaggoner
