So THAT is where Bald Bryan got that drop

'YOU DO NOT INTERRUPT ME WHEN I'M TALKING'

Good use to deflate Adam's ego from time to time.

ROFL

I couldnt find it....but I think they did it twice during the farley years....

They often did a USA for africa type of thing.....where Farley was Meatloaf...but even better, the fat chick from wilson phillips.

You had sandler doing axel rose, Spade doing Tom Petty, Phil Hartman doing Elton John, etc. etc.

Dont know why, but those always made me laugh out loud.

Bob Dole on Real World

Yeah, and Uncle Fester.

Tom Brady Sexual Harassment Short was pretty damn funny
https://tube.midov.pl/videos/watch/5...f-c6efc1de9d81

That's probably part of it. They don't have good writing right now. Even the skits that aren't political aren't that funny

Norm Macdonald's a comic genius. His Dole was awesome

It reminds me of when they could do presidential skits without the venom that's in it now

One had I think the 2000 nominees all talking. Whoever played McCain was going on and on about being a former prisoner of war in Nam. Ferrell's W was said something like "You were in Nam? Really? 'Cause I hadn't heard."

Hopefully Ferrell has a great show tonight. And Murphy's appearance should be good too

S'anuhway, there was my coot-coot and my poop chute flappin' in the breeze.

This reminds me of an obscure skit I've always remembered for some reason: What if Superman landed in Germany?

Uberman!

"You have X ray vision? Can you see through my clothes?"
"Ya. His, too! *points at Jimmy's crotch* He's a Jew!"

Oh, a bonus I'd forgotten: Michael Palin as Hitler.

Was Pat a boy or a girl?

“I played this hall back in 48 when you were just a gleam in some dumb micks eyes. You should be thanking your lucky stars you’re not making bombs in Belfast”.

Can't find it on Youtube, but the Chris Farley "Columbia Crystal Coffee" is great....basically mimics the old "we replaced your regular coffee with Columbia Crystal coffee", and Farley goes ballistic because the guy lied to him....hilarious...

EDIT: Here it is!

I can hear Hartman’s delivery if that line in my head.


Hartman was so ****ing great.
He was great in tHe small part of the prison tour guide in So I Married An Axe Murderer.

How about Father Sarduchi (sp) in 'paying for your sins.'

Yeah he as brilliant. Loved him on The Simpsons too.

"Stealing a hub cap is around $100. Masturbation is 35 cents. It doesn't seem like much, but it adds up."

I have an autographed poster of Father Guido (Don Novello) in my office at work. My company made thousands of VHS tapes for him back in the 1990s.

Ah yeah another great one! How he held up without busting out laughing was beyond me. :LOL:

Debbie Downer is simultaneously funny and absolutely god-awful.

I mean FFS people - hold it together. When you're getting checked by Lindsay Lohan, maybe you need to do a better job of not breaking. That said...watching Rachel Dratch lose the war badly was pretty funny.

It's like all the Stefon skits - they're funny, but nowhere near as funny when Hader does them straight. The best moments are ones like the Sidney Applebaum break.

Hader recognizing that absolute absurdity of everything he's doing is what makes that character.

This was so risque in how they did this skit. Funny as hell.

Ha! I've never seen that before - that's pretty great.

"ohhhh noooooooooo"

I liked Jim Carey's Jimmy Stewart impersonation in that episode too.

Playdoh man Mr Bill was a riot as well with Mr Sluggo

I was going to post that. :LOL:

The Canteen Boy sketch with Alec Baldwin was pretty good as best I can remember.

SNL has not been funny for decades so I will go with- the Blues Brothers song and dance act.

The Rock as Superman/Clark Kent, when everyone knows he's Superman and makes fun of how bad his disguise is.

"Apparently protecting truth, justice, and the American way doesn't include flushing when you're done in the can"

the one where Mark Walberg talks to petting zoo animals was hilarious.
not sure how it holds up over time, and I haven't seen it in years, but when it came out I thought it was great.

This one always stuck in my mind.....

"Remember when he first tried to work her under the name Supe R. Man?"

ROFLROFLROFLROFL

He was the male Church Lady years before the Church Lady.

Great post

I noted that one as well. That was really funny from start to finish and as much as I hate him personally, Alec Baldwin is one great actor. :thumb:

Ace and Gary must have drove the censors crazy! :LOL:

At this point, I've lost nearly all sense of what is common knowledge and what is a revelatory bit of trivia, . . . but Ace and Gary were voiced by Steve Carell and Stephen Colbert, . . . before either of them even got their big break with The Daily Show. Though I guess Colbert did have a recurring role on Strangers with Candy.

But my favorite all-time TV Funhouse isn't even a favorite for its humor, though it's still hilarious just not laugh out loud hilarious. More 'that is quality writing' hilarious.

Darlene Love is a national treasure

It's just a quality production all around, smart writing, smart visuals, smart mastering of the song and a great singing performance, . . . and that's before you even get to the funny, . . . if you know what I mean.

Speaking of Colbert - anybody remember the sketch comedy show he was on called Exit 57?

Anybody post Schmitt’s Gay yet?

Canteen Boy

https://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-l...een-boy/n10539

I like the commercial for Alexa for the WW II generation. Alexa play black Jazz! Playing uh jazz.

The hypnotist the amazing Randy! I loved it, it was better than cats. I’m going to see it again and again.

Yes it was. Created by Robert Smigel.

Not a best ever, but this had me cracking up, and the moment around 2:52 had me bowled over with laughter

Manning's was pretty good.

Every single one that popped to mind has been covered. Here's on that might not be a "best ever" category, but defintiely good for a couple of laughs.

Col. Angus was pretty awesome...

I'd have to youtube a while.

Right now.......
Eddie Murphy, Reggae band.

Kill dee white people..but buy my record first.))))))

Sorry, but nothing from the current/recent SNL cast should even be considered lol.

The first Celebrity Jeopardy had me rolling w/ Norm as Burt Reynolds

Jim Carrey w/ the Roxbury club guys was on point and hilarious.

Chippendales w/ Swayze and Farley

Most anything that featured Phil Hartman (RIP). My favorite was him as Clinton in McDonalds. You learned two things, he eats like a pig and there are many things we don't tell Mrs. Clinton.

I've never been a big Jim Carrey fan, but my dad never watched SNL and I remember recording this on my VCR in '96 and showing it to him. He discovered a whole new world of comedy. Jim Carrey the lifeguard, and if you notice, Will Ferrell hasn't changed a bit.

That entire SNL ep with Carrey on it was hilarious.
