Comedy and late-night YouTube — SNL, Stephen Colbert, Last Week Tonight, Pitch Meeting, Good Mythical Morning — produces content that drives engagement on TikTok, X, and Reddit. A 15-second SNL punchline, a Pitch Meeting catchphrase, a Stephen Colbert monologue joke, a John Oliver investigative reveal. Comedy clips have unusually short ideal lengths — most viral comedy clips are 10–30 seconds.
Late-night and sketch shows ship clips of varying lengths: full SNL sketches at 3–7 minutes, individual Stephen Colbert segments at 5–15 minutes, Last Week Tonight main stories at 20–30 minutes. Within those, the actual punchline beats are 10–30 seconds — the per-creator pages below identify how to find them. Most comedy channels do NOT publish chapter timestamps (since each upload is typically a single coherent bit), but fan comments often call out the specific punchline beat.

Clipping Comedy — FAQ.
Are these comedy clips suitable for political contexts?
Stephen Colbert and Last Week Tonight lean left politically; Pitch Meeting and SNL are more politically neutral. Plan downstream use accordingly — political comedy clips that resonate with one audience may polarize others.
What about copyright for comedy clip extraction?
Fair-use educational quoting and commentary are generally permitted. SNL, Late Show, and Last Week Tonight are owned by major networks (NBC, CBS, HBO) — extraction for commentary or short clip-share is standard practice; full-episode reposting is not. AppsGolem extracts the YouTube upload as-is; downstream use is your responsibility.
Can I extract just one joke from a longer monologue?
Yes. Stephen Colbert and Last Week Tonight monologues are sequences of jokes connected by transitions; identify the timestamp of the specific joke (often called out in fan comments) and extract a 15–30 second clip. Most jokes self-contain in that range.
Are SNL sketches the full episode?
No — SNL's official YouTube channel uploads individual sketches separately rather than full episodes. Each sketch is its own video at 3–7 minutes. AppsGolem extracts from any individual sketch upload.
