Here’s this week’s unaired SNL sketch, starring Kyle Mooney as his recurring crummy stand-up comedian character, who this time bumps into Kevin Hart at a comedy club. There are cameos from Dave Attell and Artie Lange, some grotesque leather jackets, and then a genuinely jarring turn for the profoundly sad. It’s definitely a strange one — the kind of short you’re glad they tried, but ultimately, cutting it for time seems like the right choice. Aired or not, if the great Hollywood decision machine is looking for a sign that it should cast Mooney in a serious role … this is the sign.
