Netizens have recently spammed social media with the Bill Hader dancing meme, where the comedian can be seen dancing in front of backgrounds that keep changing to fit the context. Created in the form of a GIF, several social media users are taking to Twitter and other social media platforms to upload videos of the comedian dancing to various situations created by netizens.

From the comedian dancing in front of a picture of a submarine to him being on a random MRI report, the clip of Bill Hader is a resurfaced video of him dancing during an old Saturday Night Live, aka SNL, clip.
