Amazon Echo - SNL

Saturday Night Live2:41

Transcription

The Amazon Echo has helped millions with their daily routine. "Alexa, what time is it?" "What the hell is wrong with this blasted thing? Amanda -- [Laughter]"

But, the latest technology isn't always easy to use for people of a certain age. "These kids bought me a busted machine again, Odessa!"

That's why Amazon partnered with AARP to present the new Amazon Echo Silver. The only smart speaker designed specifically to be used by the Greatest Generation. It's super loud, and responds to any name even remotely close to Alexa. [Laughter] So they can find out the weather.

"Allegra, what is the weather outside?"

"It is 74 degrees and sunny."

"Huh?"

"It is 74 degrees and sunny."

"Where?" [Laughter]

"Outside."

"What about it?"

"The temperature outside is 74 degrees and sunny."

"I don't know about that." [Laughter]

The latest in sports.

"Collessa, how many did Satchel Paige strike out last night?"

"Satchel Paige died in 1982."

"How many did he get?"

"Satchel Paige is dead."

"Say what now?"

"Died."

"Who did?"

"Satchel Paige."

"I don't know about that."

Even local news, and pop culture.

"Anita, what them boys up to across the street?"

"They are just playing."

"They're what now?"

"They are just playing."

"You say they're just playing now?"

"Yes, they are just playing."

"I don't know about that."

Control devices like your thermostat.

"Alexandra, turn the heat up."

"The room is already 100 degrees." [Laughter]

"Are you trying to kill me, Alexandra?"

The new Amazon Echo Silver plays all the music they loved when they were young.

"Angela, play Black Jazz."

"Playing the Jazz." ♪♪♪

It also has a quick scan feature to help them find things.

"Amelia, where did I put the phone?"

"The phone is in your right hand."

And it has an "uh-huh" feature for long rambling stories.

"But then I gave him five dollars. In his head I only gave him one dollar."

"Uh-huh."

"I said I know I gave you a five."

"Uh-huh."

"Cause I only had a 5 and a 1 on me."

"Uh-huh."

"And there's the $1 right here."

"Uh-huh."

"So, I mean you tell me who is crazy."
