The world\u2019s been waiting with bated breath for Andy Samberg to comment on the death of Frisbee, Seth Meyers\u2019 dog. Samberg and Frisbee were one of Hollywood\u2019s preeminent feuds; the comedian spoke about it frequently as a guest on Meyers\u2019 show (and on other<\/a> people\u2019s shows<\/a>). Samberg took issue with the dog\u2019s \u201cgeneral appearance and vibe and essence and, like, feel,\u201d he explained in his first statement on the matter for <\/a>Entertainment Tonight<\/a>. However, he confirmed, \u201cI didn\u2019t kill Frisbee, much as that would\u2019ve delighted me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

As it happens, Frisbee died just a day after Samberg\u2019s birthday, the kind of divine coincidence we haven\u2019t seen in a great American feud since friends-to-rivals John Adams and Thomas Jefferson died on the same day. The timing \u201cdidn\u2019t help things,\u201d Samberg said on The Lonely Island And Seth Meyers Podcast. \u201cLook, I\u2019ve grappled with how to handle this a lot. There was a stretch of time where I was like, \u2018You know what, this is like a hot item right now. This might be Chris Rock refusing to talk about the slap till he gets paid for it.\u2019 You know what I mean?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAs sad as it was, equally funny that there were multiple major news organizations that wrote articles about it that talked about how she was Andy\u2019s arch nemesis,\u201d Meyers admitted on the pod. \u201cMy kids kept coming over saying, \u2018What is that?\u2019 I\u2019m like, \u2018It\u2019s another article about how your dog died.’\u201d<\/p>\n

Samberg joked that it was \u201ca dream come true across the board\u201d that Frisbee would \u201c[break] the net\u201d and that he\u2019d \u201chave the privilege of being so inextricably linked to Frisbee\u2019s demise.\u201d In fact, her death \u201cbecame something that everyone I know started calling and texting me about because it became a national news story.\u201d Knowing how deep the feud ran, Meyers actually reached out to tell his old\u00a0Saturday Night Live comrade<\/a> about Frisbee\u2019s death before announcing the news publicly. Both agreed that Samberg had an appropriate response. Samberg shared, \u201cWe were texting this whole thing [and] there was definitely a little discussion between us about how it was sad but also undeniably very funny that he had to have the conversation with me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt made me laugh and smile that her legacy was that my friend hated her for 14 years,\u201d Meyers said. \u201cIt was also nice to be like, \u2018Oh, my God, Andy and I have been friends for so long.’\u201d You can listen to their full conversation below.<\/p>\n
