Amy Schumer has branded viewers ‘perverts’ for making her Saturday Night Live skit the most-watched video on the show’s YouTube channel.
Of course, SNL is one of the funniest shows on TV.
From bringing on big-name guests to play themselves or other celebs to making fun of political figures or large-scare news events, it’s got something for everyone.

However, there’s something that its audience clearly prefers to watch.
When Schumer recently visited Howard Stern on his show for an interview, she revealed why she believes people chose to watch this particular sketch above all the others.
I mean, you’ve got the skit where Kate McKinnon and Ryan Gosling have been abducted by aliens and tell their stories to federal officials.

That’s hilarious, but it doesn't in any way come close to the amount of views Schumer’s video has online.
So, what’s the big deal about it?
Well, when Stern told her that her 2015 skit is the comedy programme's most-viewed video on YouTube, Schumer wasn’t surprised.
She said: "Can you believe that? The most viewed SNL sketch of all time is me and Kyle Mooney, the 'Porn Teacher'."

Yes, she played a porn teacher in the skit.
Starting to realise why it was viewed so much?
"I want to bring it back for the 50th," Schumer went on. "Where I'm like a realtor or something. I was shocked to hear that and then you're like, 'Of course, everybody's a pervert'."

In the clip, the comedian dresses up as a teacher and goes on to show student Mooney a thing or two as they both start to prepare for a porn scene… or so it seems.
However, Aidy Bryant, who plays another student, keeps interrupting them as he takes all of Schumer’s innuendos literally - making it a hilarious watch.
Now, if you don’t know about Bryant, you’ve not watched enough SNL as she’s fantastically funny in each role she’s given.
But there’s just something about her not getting the memo while Schumer is trying to get off with her student that’s fresh.

Anyway, when Stern asked Schumer who wrote the sketch, the star joked: "Oh, some pervert. Yeah, no, we just did it, thought nothing of it.
"It's like 100-something million, it has more than 'Cowbell', you know, the most classic. People really are perverts."
Cowbell is a longstanding fan favourite sketch as it features Will Ferrell and Christopher Walken in a sound room recording a very famous song.
However, between Ferrell’s stomach hanging out from underneath his top to his enthusiastic cowbell tapping, it makes for a crazy scene.
Anyway, while 'More Cowbell' has 28 million views on YouTube, Schumer's skit has a staggering 106 million.
Sadly, we never saw Schumer’s character again and we’ll never know whether the student was able to pass or fail his ‘oral exam’, or if Schumer was able to get his grades to ‘69’.
