Colin Farrell Thought ‘Saturday Night Live’ Oscars Sketch Was Shite

When you’re at a loss for Oscar jokes, do what Colin Farell sitting on the aisle and relayed a question from “Joey from Las Vegas.”
Here’s Joey in a nutshell: “Colin, I loved your performance. My question: What the heck were you saying in the movie?”

Farrell’s response: “I’d like him to go on YouTube and check out SNL last night and he’ll have a good idea.” We’ll go ahead and save you the YouTube search:
Mikey Day plays Farrell here, with Molly Kearney imitating his fellow Oscar nominee Brendan Gleeson. The joke: The Irish actors’ brogue accents are so thick that no one can understand a single word. Just in case Farrell wasn’t properly insulted yet, SNL’s Oscar red-carpet host followed up with: “Wow! And they haven’t even started drinking yet!” (Farrell swore off alcohol in 2006, then checked into a rehab facility in 2018 as a “pre-emptive measure.” Ha ha ha!)
Fans on Twitter piled on, praising Farrell for calling out SNL in response to Kimmel’s “lazy, stupid question”:
Kimmel fared a little better when he brought out Jenny, the miniature donkey who was robbed (robbed, we say!) of a nomination of her own for Banshees.
Farrell and Gleeson seemed genuinely delighted to wave and blow kisses to their co-star – OR WAS IT? Vulture is reporting that “Jenny” wasn't the actual star at all but “just a random donkey,” proving once and for all that nothing is sacred. Authentic or not, of the two asses on stage, the Banshees of Inisherin stars clearly preferred the four-legged one.
