SNL Alum J.B. Smoove Wrote A Wild Sketch For Johnny Knoxville, And Urine Was Involved



Before becoming one of the best characters on Curb Your Enthusiasm and turning himself into a sought after comedic character actor, JB Smoove was a writer on Saturday Night Live. He was only there for a couple seasons, but many of the cast members and writers who overlapped with his tenure, talk about the wild ideas he pitched with great fondness. Now I can see why.

Smoove was recently on Kelly Ripa’s podcast, Let’s Talk Off Camera. Not surprisingly, the topic of SNL came up, as Ripa hosted the show while Smoove worked there. During their chat, he brought up a sketch he pitched for Johnny Knoxville, and it’s way too good not to share. Apparently he wrote a crime show sketch where the Jackass star would sniff people’s urine and use whatever he smelled to help solve the case. Here’s the elevator pitch he dropped in the writer’s room…

Urine Detective! I wrote that for Johnny Knoxville when he was gonna be the host. You know Johnny Knoxville. He’d do crazy shit on his show Jackass. He was a detective, and he’d solve crimes based on your urine sample. He would taste your urine sample and say, ‘This man didn’t do this murder, but he did a lot of other shit!’
