Every week I Tivo SNL and I save the good sketches and here is what is on the DVD i am making so far
ps also talk about other good stand-out snl sketches because as we know snl is mostly shit but sometimes theres great things on it :(
Toonces The Cat Who Could Drive a Car
This is the primetime special, and i got it from a home video. It is all mostly new Jack Handey sketches and they all rule. Bob Odenkirk, Dave Foley, Kevin McDonald, Joe Flaherty, Andrea Martin, and others are on it. This is an awesome show and one of the better things SNL has produced.
American Profiles (Feb 9, 1985)
A short film by Chris Guest about two jokeshop owners who go to baseball fantasy camp. The films durring the 84-85 season were awesome.
A.D. 13, Part V, A New Beginning/Jackie Rogers Jr.'s $100,000 Jackpot Wad (April 6, 1985)
The first sketch is basically just a string of celebrity impressions staring in an NBC movie of the week that takes place in Ancient Rome. The second one is Martin Short doing his Jackie Rogers Jr. hosting a gameshow. Billy Crystal does his fucking Sammy Davis Jr. that he STILL fucking does but it still manages to not fuck up the sketch. It's mostly because of Chris Guest as a dense, fruity gameshow contestant. The description sounds like its kind of a bad sketch but I think its hilarious :(
Alice In Wonderland/TV Funhouse: "Disney's Titey" (April 4, 1997)
The Alice In Wonderland sketch is so great. That's the one with Steve Buscemi as the mad hatter. He and the other mad guests boast about how crazy they are. The others say things like "I wear socks on my hands and gloves on my feet!" and he says stuff like "I wash my hands 100 times a day because they smell like my mother!" Buscemi is fucking wonderful in the sketch, he must have loved doing it. The TV Funhouse is a disneyfied version of the Titanic and I'm pretty sure they cut it out of the 1 hour rerun. Too bad because it is also funny. But I pretty much save all the TV Funhouse segments.
Debbie Downer (May 1, 2004)
Probably one of SNL's biggest fuck-up sketch. I haven't seen one that's worse than this, anyway. Want to have fun with this sketch again? Watch it and watch the background actors the whole time. It's great, it makes the whole sketch even weirder. The background actors maintain and stay realistic, while all the real stars fuck up.
TV Funhouse: "Ambigously Gay Duo" (May 5, 1998)
This is a pretty typical Ambigously Gay Duo cartoon, but like I said I save all the TV Funhouse sketches regardless :(
Bloater Brothers (May 15, 2004)
Fuck you I like this sketch >:
Eych/Amazing Time Savers (May 15, 1994)
Eych is a commercial for a hairball remover and also a parody of Meow Mix commercials and its funny. The Amazing Time Savers sketch is the one where Heather Locklear compares competor's prices to the holocaust being a lie in an infomercial. A lof of people remember that sketch, but its kinda long and could be better. But I liked it enough to put it on this DVD.
Majestic Caribbean Cruise Line/Inhibited Dance Party USA/Something Smells Good in Stinkville, Parts One, Two, and Three (April 9, 1994)
Majestic Caribean Cruise is a fake commercial that advertises a cruiseline that features Manute Bol. It's fantastic. Inhibited Dance Party is one of the sketches that gets cut from the hour long version. It's a dance party show with people who are really inhibited and its funny. Something Smells Good in Stinkville is for some reason, a sketch that drove me insane with it's logic. Parts 2 & 3 get cut from the one-hour show. Basically its about a town that smells and its way of life being changed when a good smell appears one day. The townsfolk are scared of the good smell. It's really not that clever but when they showed it I started reading into way too much and thinking about the logic and for some reason I thought it was really complicated. Also Kelsey Grammer breaks up in part two while smelling his cat's ass, and thats always good.
Flex/Comic Minds (May 2, 1998)
Flex is that commercial about the deoderant that has steroids in it. I like it. :( Comic Minds is a sketch that gets cut. It's an interview show and their guests are a comedy team that followed in Cheech and Chong's footsteps, except their comedy was based on PCP. This seriously cracked me up more than anything else in the episode. Why did it get cut? >:
