Liam Gallagher Calls ‘Saturday Night Live’ Oasis Skit ‘Excruciating’
In classic form, Liam Gallagher has responded to a Saturday Night Live sketch that aired over the weekend mocking the two Oasis members for not getting along.
The skit, part of “Weekend Update,” starred James Austin Johnson and Sarah Sherman as Noel and Liam Gallagher, respectively, and saw the pair bickering like children before agreeing on a few things they like, including SpongeBob SquarePants. A fan on X asked Liam, “How do you feel about SNL’s impression of you last night” with the musician responding that it was “Excruciating.”

He added, in response to other X comments, “I wouldn’t expect anything else from them” and “Are they meant to be comedians.”
In the sketch, “Weekend Update” co-host Colin Jost interviewed the Gallagher brothers about the upcoming reunion tour, asking if they’ll be able to get along for shows. The pair, attempting very bad Mancunian accents, argued for a while before finding common ground on their favorite and least favorite Sex in the City boyfriends.
Liam has been notably antagonistic on social media since the tour was announced, going so far as to neg Oasis fans who were left frustrated by the on-sale experience for their reunion shows next year. “OASIS are back your welcome and I hear there ATTITUDE STINKS good to know something’s never change LFUCKING x,” he wrote on X.
Last month, he took aim at Irish band Fontaines D.C. after band members Carlos O’Connell and Conor Deegan III were asked about the Oasis tour on the Dutch radio show Studio Brussel. “I couldn’t really give a shit,” said O’Connell, “to be honest.” “I’m not excited about it either, to be honest,” Deegan added. “For Oasis to reform at this moment for us is really annoying.”
“Fuck them little spunkbubbles,” Liam replied. “I’ve seen better dressed ROADIES. They look like a shit EMF.”
The Oasis reunion tour kicks off July 4, 2025, at Principality Stadium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales. The group has been inactive since 2009, and the Gallaghers announced a reunion in August after 15 straight years of saying such a thing would never, ever happen.
Elsewhere during his flurry of tweets, Liam was asked about the time Oasis appeared on SNL in 1997, with Matthew Perry as host. “Did you get along with Mathew Perry when you guys were on?” a fan inquired. Gallagher confirmed, “I actually don’t remember being on it.”
