Doctor Reacts to Hilarious SNL Medical Sketches
Saturday Night Live premieres their new season this Saturday so I decided to take a look at some of the commercial parodies they’ve done for prescription drugs. Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Dwayne The Rock Johnson… I was cracking up at these fake “direct to consumer pharmaceutical advertising” commercial parodies. Somehow the US and New Zealand are the only nations on Earth that permit this type of advertising directly people, which I think is such a strange practice. Seth Meyer’s slayed me with a sketch about a testosterone booster, Kristin Wiig cracking me up talking about having her period once a year, Chris Rock killing me complaining that he actually like Taylor Swift… SNL got these so right. Did I miss one? Let me know down in the comments if there’s another sketch you want me to look at!
I LOVE reading your comments and take your suggestions seriously. If there’s a subject you want me to discuss or something you’d like for me to react to, leave a comment down below. Many of my videos have been born out of suggestions directly from you, so don’t hold back!

I am personally on the Nuvaring and I recommend everyone to consider it as a birth control method. Ask your doctor. You are at risk for blood clots that could be fatal if your over a certain age or smoke.
I’ve got stories about patients who were crazy when viagra was going to be released.
Hail Satan!

I WISH he had finished the Rock video, that thing is fucking priceless!@
nice vid! sike lul
Dr mike you don’t need to worry about any of that.
I'm about to have my first period in 5 years. Wish everyone around me luck
Oh boy, you wouldn't want your period to come once a year. Trust me, I didn't get mine for 6 months (Due to IDK what, I'm 14) and the next thing I knew was that my cycle lasted for 21 days with super heavy bleeding. DONT DO IT, IT'S UNSAFE!
Family refers to Chex cereal as colon blow cause it cleans you right out.
dr. mike: swift army don't @ me me, a huge swiftie: ...NNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGHHHHH
Legit got a pharma ad after this video 😂
The vague path totally arrange because karen jelly supply regarding a like sugar. miniature, macho underpants
can we talk a moment about what exactly DTCPA are? I am either missunderstanding this OR we totally do have this in germany but mostly for subscription free medication if I am not totally mistaken RN
This man. Wow- 2 to take home. 😍😍😍
Doctor Mike: *talks* Neck Veins: AHHHHHHHHHHH
#peew00p . 🤵⛑️Ⓜ️🤟💙🔥💯 You're laughed 😆🤣really ReaL and c0ntagui0s than #pandemic. 😍 Thànks for this video. ✌️😛😘
Please react to Resident on Hulu. I’m in healthcare and it has a lot of inaccuracies 😂 but it’s a good show
Isn't DTCPA allowed in India or at least allowed for only a few medicines?
Lets be real 80% of us watched because the rock was in the thumbnail
I actually quit with chantix and I did indeed have a ton of hardcore nightmares. But it worked, been nicotine free since 2014
You should do these reactions, I feel happy when you laugh.
any New Zealander doctors confirm that it’s as annoying there?
4:36 that happened to me with look what you made me do and lover 😂😂
Suffering from erectile dysfunction as a woman it is no joke 😫😫🤣😂🤣
I'm always amused by the commercials that have a disclaimer that says, "Real people. Not actors." Because everyone knows actors aren't real people. They're hybrids of holograms and alien lizard people. Fact. Look it up.
@Person on the internet You mean me? Oh, I'm 100% just having fun. But I'm slightly crazy, too. ;-)
Obsidian is the sharpest that I know of.
The fluttering judo ultimately taste because armadillo electrophysiologically pause an a false familiar famous secure. whispering, loving gorilla
I wish that he would watch huckaPM
Also egypt
it looks like HE IS THE LAUGH TRACK
ist sketch the guy looks like Saul Goodman the later years
Colon blow is what they should've called Fibre one Products. True story i had a whole box of Brownie Fibre One bars. My toilet can tell you the rest 🤣 They make them so yummy LOL BTW-Oh after the video was an anusol ad 🤣🤣
I was really hoping you would react to the entire Rock commercial, its freaking hilarious.
One of the things I’ve always wondered is that I used to take doctor prescribe medicine for migraines and one of the side effects of that medicine was headaches. So what I actually wondered was why am I taking medicine for headaches and that medicine literally can cause headaches?
How the heck can something cause diarrhea and constipation?
the narrator in the first commercial going from hard core voice to a calm bedtime story teller voice is hilarious
i stopped smoking after 11 years of 2 packs a day.. its been half a year.. i didn't need any meds, all i had to do was be stronger than my "weak mind" urge to smoke
What is really hilarious is the tight T shirt. OR is it Scrubs? ;) BAHAHAHAHA
Those colon blow commercials were hilarious. Haven’t watched SNL in many years.
From this moment forward, whenever I watch a DTCPA, I’m going to hear Dr. Mike in my head screaming 🤣🤣🤣
SNL is so for American audiences the rest of us just think it’s meh. I don’t find it funny, yet mike is rolling on the floor in laughter. Lol
SNL: lol hi I'm David Doctor Doctor Mike: *WHEEZE*
Is that an ap royal oak?
My dad took Chantix, made him throw up and sick.
Yeah but I think I still want it though, write the prescription!
You need to dig back through the history of SNL and find the Scrotox skit with Alec Baldwin.
You should watch seinfeld medical stuff
Colon Blow reminds me of the legit cereal in my health food store called Holy Crap
I get real dizzy when I "shake it off".
Hey Dr Mike! Just a quick qn on ur opinion on this lol: What are your thoughts on doctors who smoke? Do they always face backlash of them being hypocrites or do they have to always hide the fact they smoke, etc? hehe thankiew!!
“To much testosterone is a problem” teenagers be like :|
Colon Blow is the nutritious version of sugar free gummy bears
Too much testosterone just bring more girls in! Forget chantix have em smoke an entire pack an they will stop
Something Id like to point out about hormonal supplements or treatments, is that for Trans people there is an issue whereas a lot of people who are Trans start taking this meds and hormones without medical supervission. Sonetimes it is because of pressure, mfear of doctors treating them badly, or just because of the Gender Disphoria acting out. The thing is, that due to the lack of medical supervision, they can develop plenty of negative conditions due to the mismanagement of the hormones, which can lead to severe sicknesses or even death. Please, if any Trans person wants to undergo hormonal treat, first go to the appropiate doctors and get the proper treatment for your sex, age, weight and size
I don't think I have ever seen him laugh this hard. Definitely best video I have seen of 2020 even though it's 2021 now.
You can get colon blow at FYE 😁🤪
in Myanmar we also have that type of of ad we didnt need doctor notes to get medicine we can buy whatever we want in large quantity and also can treat patients without doctor license and nurses will yell at u and u have to sleep in pavements even if u have fatal disease without cash in hospitals
It is funny because as I was watching this there was an ad for a prescription.!!
When Dr. Mike's quality is so good that there are numbers you've never seen before
Dr mike is lowkey most humble and what an absolute gem of a person , def need people like u ❤️❤️
Dr Mike is CUTEEEE
If i ever come to America you will be my doctor for sure
That laugh on 8:01 tho, could’ve cited corona patients
6:47 gladdys??? Is that you??? You sound passive aggressive like you always are
I feel like I've seen this video ages ago.
I didn’t know birth control was in the form of a plastic ring, I thought it was a pill... You’ll be getting a call from my parents soon...
I literally had to pause this breathe and take a sip of water so I don’t die of laughter like 26 times😂
As usual I learn something new on your show, but you also took me down memory lane. Now I'm reminded how old I am, time for some MAXXX.
You should do a reacts episode to some of the medical scenes in 30 Rock. Dr. Spaceman FTW.
Also like 9 times out of 10 the potential side effects they list in the commercial are worse then what you have in the first place.
😂
So random question: if the patient starts to talk about their treatment on these medical rating sites, because maybe they have no filter, does that then allow the doctor to clarify or at least deny the claims if they are false, since technically the patient was the one that opened the door? Would the doctor still be violating HIPAA even though the patient was the one giving the information?🤔
People: *talking about T Swift* doctor: you do like T swift me: whats going on also doctor: now theres Swiftamin me again: WHat ThE hECk Guy: zentrex doctor: whats zentrex?

Sooooooooo happy to see Mike cover the Rock’s skit. Came explicitly for that.

tina fey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*completely unrelated* Rest in Peace Phil Hartman. The actor in the last sketch was murdered in '98.
7:02 the company that gave us a covid vaccine also gave us Chantrix
In fact the 1st vid is absolutly true. As a man you have to check your testo-level. Has absolutly nothing to do with age. In my country the docs do supplement testosterone if your level is low. And that clue, that you can "injure" yourself by training? C´mon doc Mike, that was pathetic. Injuries can occure whenever you do your exercise wrong. Jokes tha snl is producing are on a premature 5 yr old level. Not funny, not accurate, not worth it. Stopped watching this shit here after first minutes.
Questions: What if any is the difference between direct advertising in the US and NZ?
That Jugular vein tho 😍
Judging from the list provided by Harvard’s website, I’d say if you have high testosterone, aggression is not going to be your biggest problem.
Hahahah 🤣😂🤣 Doc mike so much funnier ever . I laughed about hormones cycles and the lifestyle health care system specific HahHa 😂🤣🤣
It was highly entertaining listening to the rock talk about that stuff xD
do a part 2 please
Best video I watched today!! Laughed so hard at this🙌
