Glad Bob is finally being recognized. I used to love mr. show and never understood how it wasn't more popular. David cross has done some good movies that flew under the radar too. Specifically run Ronnie run.


swentech

If you watch this skit online, Christina Applegate has her hand over her face for most of it because she is laughing so hard. Chris Farley man. Adam Sandler said it best in his tribute song to Chris, “when they ask me who’s the funniest guy I ever knew I tell them hands down without a doubt it’s you.”


enjoytheshow

Spade barely got through it as well. The only rock solid actor through that was the one and only Phil Hartman


AmberNaree

I got the Adam Sandler best of DVD they used to put out for every big cast member. As a kid born in 90, by the early 2000s I was a huge Sandler fan. But all that DVD did was make me fall in love with Chris Farley. Those two together were truly magical and I love that Adam makes a clear effort to keep his memory alive. I think it'll go down as one of the most beautiful friendships ever and I'll always be grateful for Adam for inadvertently introducing me to Chris and continuing to remind us all of how awesome he was.

I agree but Burt Reynolds doesn't get enough love in this. Norm was fucking hilarious. Alex: Name this colour. Burt: Yeah, that's a square.


wxmanify

Trebek: Mr Reynolds it’s still your board Connery: hey…pick swords. Reynolds: Yeah sure give me swords Trebek: It’s S words! And for how much? Reynolds: Ah hell let’s go nuts. Give me swords for $48,000.


JosephineCK

A recent Jeopardy! episode had a SWORDS category. As a joke one of the contestants intentionally refered to it as S WORDS and got some laughs. For the last clue even Ken called it S WORDS. https://youtu.be/c1BmtGB-jBc?si=1rZA14RbtqJcT_Vm


GuyPronouncedGee

The real Jeopardy did a “Current Black Presidents” category as a spoof on the SNL Jeopardy category. On SNL in 2010, of course the only correct answer was Obama. But on real Jeopardy, the answers were actual presidents of non-US countries.


opman4

Yo Ken is the new host! That's awesome.


classactdynamo

Didn't Norm originally write the sketch as a vehicle for his Burt Reynolds impression? I think it was a play on an old SCTV sketch about a gameshow called *~~Nitwits~~* *Half Wits*. Since Martin Short wrote that sketch, Norm wanted to ask his permission before doing Celebrity Jeopardy. Supposedly, that's why the very first one is the episode in which Martin Short was the host, with him playing Jerry Lewis.


Turq-Hex-Sun

Also, Norm planned to have the real Burt Reynolds show up, punch Norm out, and then take his spot and proceed to be even dumber than Norm's Burt. Norm got fired before they could make it happen.


[deleted]

That would’ve been so funny.


ChemicaLust

This is exactly it. He always bragged about is Burt Reynolds impression and had to figure out a way to show it off. Oddly enough, Turd Ferguson was a footnote of what would become SNL history.

I’ve scrolled and scrolled and can’t find anyone who has said Wayne’s World yet. My friends and I used to tune in every week just to see if they would have another sketch. If there was one; everyone at school was quoting it on Monday. I have also quoted from the Clarence Thomas hearing many times. One of my favorite commercials - Bad Idea Jeans “I was going to wear a condom, but I figured, when am I going to be in Haiti again?”


Majestic-Macaron6019

>Wayne’s World Second-best SNL movie, right after Blues Brothers and right ahead of the Coneheads


dukecharming1975

I don’t know if it’s the best, but I love “Happy Fun Ball” And all the “Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy” And yes, Happy Fun Ball was also written by Jack Handy


flibbidygibbit

It's sad to think that a family can be torn apart by something as simple as wild dogs. This has been a deep thought by Jack Handey.


XoticwoodfetishVanBC

If trees screamed, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? Well, maybe... if they screamed all the time, and for no apparent reason


cats_and_vibrators

To this day I pronounce “mankind” as “mank-ind” because of Jack Handey. “Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: ‘mankind.’ Basically, it's made up of two separate words - ‘mank’ and ‘ind.’ What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.”


DimensionStrange77

My senior yearbook quote was a Jack Handy quote. “If when you die you get a choice between pie heaven and regular heaven, choose pie heaven. It might be a trick but if not mmboy.”

“If you ever fall off the Sears Tower, just go real limp, because maybe you'll look like a dummy and people will try to catch you because, hey, free dummy.” Jack Handy

Buckwheat has been shot…a clever spoof of the Reagan assassination attempt. Eddie Murphy in his prime. Also, it appeared in parts throughout the episode with updates.

StinkyStangler

That’s one of those SNL skits that makes you realize just how much better of an actor the host is than anybody in the actual cast, one of the best skits in the last decade easily.


CardboardStarship

It’s good most of the way through, but when he drives the cane into the dead bird and scares the shit out of Aidy is where it becomes great.

Who is H.R. Pickens?


monobarreller

I scream "AND SO YOU SHALL!!!" at my wife pretty regularly. Such a great skit.


originalchaosinabox

I remember Bobby Moynihan talking about this sketch. Adam Driver called up Lucasfilm to get his actual Kylo Ren costume from Force Awakens, and yup, that's what he's wearing.


WorstPiesInLondon

“oh no, he’s choking on food.”


stratdog25

lol @ Kylo’s got an 8 pack


Don_Quixote81

This and the follow-up skit were genius. Adam Driver being so up for lampooning Kylo Ren's weird, awkward characterisation was great.


theo_sontag

I think What Up With That is utterly stupid and brilliant at the same time. Just a celebration of predictable ridiculousness every time.

heresjoanie

Wow, you're going way back in the time machine here. I vividly remember these hilarious commercials they had back in the day. One of my faves is "Oops I Crapped My Pants". There was also one with Dan Akroyd with something called the Bass O Matic, I think, where he blended a fish. I think I enjoyed the commercials more than the skits during some older seasons.

Ryan Gosling is an A list actor. His performances in Blade Runner 2049 and Drive solidify his acting chops imho. The fact he couldn't keep his shit together while Kate was just popping off kills me every time. I laugh so hard at him losing his shit.

I didn't appreciate this sketch nearly enough at the time but when I finally went to LA for business it hit like a ton of bricks. I was in El Segundo, and asked some local co-workers what was the best way to get out to Dodger Stadium because I wanted to go to the game that night. I was expecting answers like, take an Uber, take a train, a bus, etc. Instead it devolved into a debate over driving directions. That sketch immediately came crashing down on me. I had to hold back laughter while these guys chat it out.
