Did 'SNL' Cut Its Best Sketch?: Bill Hader and Fred Armisen Crack Up as Christmas Story-Telling Doormen

Once again, Saturday Night Live may have left its best sketch on the rehearsal cutting room floor, adding to Kate McKinnon and Jeremy Renner playing a feuding Thanksgiving couple, Bobby Moynihan hulking out on Weekend Update and a pre-election President Barack Obama sketch. If SNL keeps this up, this may have to become a regular feature.

So what'd SNL cut this week? The show went into rehearsal with a sketch featuring Bill Hader and Fred Armisen playing Renaldo and Alexi, two apartment doormen with awful accents who insist on telling tenants mangled Christmas stories as they try to leave the building. Hader and Armisen couldn't even get through this one, cracking each other up with horrible retellings of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, A Christmas Carol and Frosty the Snowman. On top of Hader and Armisen's shenanigans, Tim Robinson's deadpan idiot garbage man killed me.

Actually, I guess I can see why Lorne Michaels and Seth Meyers didn't let this one get on air. There's no way Hader and Armisen would've made it all the way through. Check the sketch out for yourself after the jump, and remember to always yell "Drunk Uncle!" at Moynihan if you see him walking the streets of New York City.
