Bill Hader on Writing the "South Park" Kanye Fish-Sticks Joke | The New Yorker Festival

The ending makes this video.
"...and then he f*cks a fish."
Perfection.
No notes.

You can say that kanye is a Bill Hater

ooooh so HE helped with it lol nice

Even Bill didn't give Jimmy credit for writing the joke 😂

The fact that Kanye West does not get this joke in real life, makes it so much funnier!😂😂

South Park is humanities crowning achievement.

Singlehandedly explained kanyes issues and sorted em in 3min

to this day, i break out laughing every time I just see West on TV..an all time great SP episode.

That's why i love him

I love how Hader is casually explaining it all while the crowd LOSES IT😂😂 I'm assuming the audience is remembering the episode and the hilarious logic behind how the episode even came to be🤣

It’d be even more hilarious if he was just making up this whole story to troll Trey and Matt.😂😂😂

I love that Trey’s pointless side trip to a Salmon ladder …..spawned …..an amazing episode

The thing is, i just watched that sketch, and it has this bit with Hassidic robots in, and i think that's where that all started for kanye too.

Bill hadar explaining the joke is funnier than watching it.

"Choke a southpark writer with a fishstick" - Ye
... so he was talking about Bill, haha cool

We all know that Carlos Mencia wrote this joke.

Trey Parker is a genius. Has anyone seen Cannibal the Musical? If you enjoy South Park...this movie is a must watch.

So that ep was made possible by Trey's seemingly pointless urge to write shows while watching a salmon ladder. Genius

omg I never knew Bill Hader contributed to that episode!!! That is so awesome!!!!

😆

yah cause u didnt pick kanye cause he isnt bashing the jews

Turns out he's a racist fish.

This is the funniest interview ever

I like how he describes Kanyes journey of acceptance

Bill Hader is awesome. But the person who edited this is amazing as well.

I want to get paid to come up with this stuff 😂

I just cannot believe that Barry is a south park writer

Just when I couldn’t love the dude more

and this is why I love south park

'And he f***s a fish,' was what he said last :)

This joke may have destroyed his life. Pretty creepy tbh

Genius!!!

I like cheese sticks....

I love how reticent Bill is recounting the plot of the episode, like he's coming to terms with how ashamed he is of his juvenile sense of humour

This is the most creditability Kanye has ever had. Thanks for helping the extinct silly fool, Hader.

Hader telling the joke and story is funnier than the actual joke.

They are the best

I remember using that joke back in 2008. When that episode come out

Just shows Hader's innate comedic genius

I think it's what pushed Kanye over the edge,

lmfaooooo

It's funny that in a way the simpsons did it with their "sleeping with the fishes" joke

I didn't appreciate south park when I was young. Some friends liked it but definitely for the wrong reasons. Now I realize that it is comedy perfected.

To be paid to do that all day is the dream

Are you a male?
Are you a hard working American?
Do you like drinking bud light?
😂😅
Huh! You must be a g@y fish 😅

Classic love bill harder and Matt stone and trey Parker

They didn’t even need to make the episode, just describing it is gold

Naw i wrote that joke

Carlos Mencia wrote the jokes.

One of the greatest jokes in history
