The joke on Sidney Applebaum is referred to from the comedy “Love and Death,” where a French general talks about how his victory will help the world remember his name as “Sidney Applebaum.” The only thing which makes Allen’s movies great is the beautiful non sequiturs. The rest is a surprise for Stefan; Bill Hader only knows a chunk of the script going into it. No doubt, as a comedian, this would have struck him as hilarious, and as for the audience, because they are laughing mainly because they know the movie line and they get it or because people are supposed to. The audience is not laughing at that right because they have no clue about the back story; it’s funny for the reasons mentioned, about the inside joke between Hader and John Mulaney.
Some of the reasons why the joke works are twofold:
- The irony here is that audiences are ready for the Jewish Dracula to have, possibly, a cool sounding name because the Blackula comment has set them up, and it seems lame, unmistakable and ordinary sounding Jewish name. Additionally, a plethora of people tends to stereotype Jewish people as being very conservative and sensible, which makes the joke funny, at least at the back of the mind of many people.
- Additionally, the crowd loves it when Bill Hader breaks character and starts laughing uncontrollably. On the flip side, Hader holds a reputation on the show for being reasonably easy to break.
No matter, Hader and Mulaney are comedic geniuses and had a great run with this character Stefon, and all we hope is that they don’t end ruining the surface. One thing is for sure that the audience loves it when Bill Hader breaks character and starts laughing uncontrollably, and on the show, Hader has a reputation for being relatively easy to break.
In the movie by Woody Allen, ‘Love and Death’, Sidney Applebaum is a character, and that character says that Sidney Applebaum is the name they will remember when they go through the history of France. Ideally, the humour mainly comes in the dichotomy between a personal account that the audience will remember and the lameness of the word.
What is the joke here on SNL in Sidney Applebaum?
The only thing which makes Allen’s movies great is one of the beautiful nonsequiturs. Nothing is surprising to know that as a comedian, this would have struck him as hilarious as possible. Still, at the same time for the audience, people are laughing either because some of them know the movie line and they understand it, or it is because because they know they are supposed to just laugh it out.
Things explained in an interview:
Bill Hader Is Sad to Leave ‘Saturday Night Live’, said the live interviewer. Well, moving ahead with the topic, Jewish Dracula named Sidney Applebaum made him laugh really hard, not because that’s such a funny joke of that name, but that name is from one of our favourite tricks in the Woody Allen movie Love and Death. Though it made people laugh, it was quite personal that the guy himself is talking about how his name will be marked in history.
