The group was hired for "SNL" in 2005, with all three as writers and Samberg as a featured player. Bypassing the traditional process of pitching, they recorded their own material independently and submitted it to the program. Their second sketch to air, "Lazy Sunday", became an internet sensation, the first of many viral videos they produced while at "SNL". They led their own division at the program — "SNL" Digital Shorts — which led to numerous viral videos, including "Motherlover", "Dick in a Box", "Jizz in My Pants", "I'm on a Boat", "Like a Boss", "I Just Had Sex", "Jack Sparrow", and "YOLO". Their musical comedic work has comprised four full studio albums: "Incredibad" (2009), "Turtleneck & Chain" (2011), "The Wack Album" (2013), and "The Unauthorized Bash Brothers Experience" (2019), along with a soundtrack album for their 2016 film "". The three retired from "SNL" in the early 2010s, but occasionally make guest appearances.
