Oh SNL....So many wonderful sketches, I don't know where to begin!

I love some of the ones already mentioned, namely the Cowbell Sketch. My dad is obessed with that sketch and it became a family joke. "I got a fever...and the only thing that'll cure it, is more cowbell!"

Chopping Broccoli is a good one too.

I also loved Chris Farley's Motivational Speaker "Living in a VAN down by the RIVER!"

Spartan Cheerleaders, always funny (my friends and I love going through and doing "Roll Call")

The Culp's always cracked me up as well.

Steve Martin was one of my all time favorite guest hosts. I love his "King Tut" number and him and Dan Akroyd doing "Wild and Crazy Guys" I also love when he gets "Happy Feet" There's a great sketch with him and Gilda Radner dancing and it's clearly a slow song but every so often they get happy feet.

The Night at the Roxbury guys, suddenly I can't remember their names, but Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan played them. It was funny, one time Tom Hanks joined up with them when he hosted.

I always enjoy a good Mango sketch.

Chris Farley and Patrick Swayze trying out for Chippendales, that was a pretty good one too.

The Chris Farley Show. I love when Paul McCartney was on and Chris Farley says "You remember when you were in the Beatles? That was pretty cool."

Anyway, I could go on and on about SNL, but those are some of my random favorites off the top of my head.

I have a confession, I never actually saw the cowbell sketch :embarrassed: , but I've heard a lot about it.

But another I absolutely loved was Mike Myers as Linda Richman in Coffee Talk
"I'm all verklempt ... (sniff) ... talk amongst yourselves .. I'll give you a topic .... Rhode Island is neither a Road, nor a state, discuss!"

Did you know that Mike Myers patterned Linda Richman after his mother in law?
Discuss!:smile:

I liked that Jeopardy skit Will Ferrell did as Alex Trebek, and one of the categories was "Colors that end in 'urple'".

I also liked the skit I saw the other night where Tom Hanks was that weird curly haired weirdo doing yoga with that little girl he scared the heck out of.

Speaking of which that girl looked a little bit like my fellow puppeteer at my local PBS station only shorter.
