Underrated SNL skit

[SteyrAUG]

Well its hardly underrated but this one is a friggin Classic. There is to many to list from back in the day that's for sure & me being an old fart I use to watch most Saturday Nite Shows. New ones suck 110%, its bad enough they suck but they go on forever it seems. They have some funny people still on the show but the writting is terrabile ! Kate Mckinnon is pretty dam funny I will say along with a few others. Its just a shame cuz it is an iconic show that has lost its way !

The best one was with David Spade and Christina Applegate when they both started losing it in the middle of the skit. It's a shame about Farley, like Belushi he really carried the show, but like Belushi he destroyed himself. It's something I'll never understand about people who become wildly successful.

I can understand why somebody who has nothing, whose life is a disaster might go down the road of drugs, alcohol and other destructive excesses...but when you have everything...why would you risk it? Give me that kind of money and fame and the most extreme thing I'm gonna do is milk and cookies. Hell I don't screw around with anything now and I'm hardly rich or famous. Don't drink, don't smoke, never did drugs...but I still want to enjoy this ride for as long as I'm able. Don't need any of that shit, give me a decent pepperoni pizza and a nice fizzy coke and I'm good to go.

It's not SNL, but one of the best character breakings of all time was on the Carol Burnett Show with Tim Conway. Yeah, I'm dating myself.

The devil can't dance either... This makes me like the guy even more as well. I give you the lost Trump skit.

Yes Sir, I agree on all parts! Spade & Applegate crack me up just as much as Farley,, classic funny for sure! Also on the abuse part,I always say WTF when stuff like that happens,its very sad. Same happens with Pro sports guys,,there worth millions but they just gotta go back home and do stupid stuff or think they are above the law. I was a BIG Belushi fan also considering I am a bit older and grew up watching him and SNL,,he was awesome,plus I think that whole crew was the best total combined cast,just so many talented people. There have been many outstanding people on SNL through the years but never such a "complete" crew I don't think ! Anyways not to get sidetracked I'm trying to find some other skits that were crazy funny but like the Chevy Chase & Richard Prior one some are hard to find. He is such an big ass now but Alex Baldwin did some funny stuff back in the day & there is a Wayne/Garth & a Bruce Willis skit I'm trying to find,,,all good stuff ! I'll keep lookin !

Franken was a huge douche even then and he is the reason SNL got killed in the first place. When he did the skit "Limo for a Lamo" criticizing NBC president for poor ratings and suggesting that people write in to NBC to demand that Franken also be given limousine service, Fred Silverman instead decided to non renew everyone's contract.

Franken was expected to take over for Loren Michaels as executive producer and instead was not invited back along with the rest of the SNL cast. In 1981 Dick Ebersol took over as executive producer with a new cast that included Joe Piscipo, Charles Rocket and Gilbert Gottfried. By 1982 Eddie Murphy, Robin Duke and Tim Kazurinsky had joined the cast.

Ironically the early 80s and the new cast would produce some of the best SNL skits of all time. ETA: Looks like they don't actually host the Limo for a Lamo skit. But here is an overview.

Ok. Just thought he was funny.

Modern day SNL sucks but this is a underrated one.

Reminded me of a very underrated comedy, The Pick of Destiny:

NSFW: Lots of F Bombs etc but it's a classic:

Farley was the best.. Caught this a few years ago..

This is one of the funniest things I have ever seen! I've now watched all of the skits where Kate McKinnon plays Ms. Rafferty, they are all unbelievably hilarious!

Oh man, yeah, that movie was hilarious...I laughed my ass off! Especially that whole scene with Young JB and Meat Loaf as the dad. OMG.

Now that song is in my head. It's gonna be a great day!

It is hilarious. We haven't run SNL in many years but I caught it. They revisited this a few years later.
