Old Apr 13th, 2003, 04:45 PM        Best and Worse SNL Sketches
This is the thread where we talk about our favorite and least favorite SNL skits and why we think they kick or suck ass. I'll start with my favorites, which are Wayne's World, Celebrity Jeopardy, and the Matt Foley: Motivational Speaker sketches.

The ones I truly can't stand include Wake Up, Wakefield (the painfully unfunny school morning announcements one) and the Weekend Updates with Colin Quinn (I hate that fucker).

Discuss.

I hate pretty much every SNL skit, except i remember one with David Alan Grier as Maya Angalou promoting ButterFinger and for some reason that thing makes me laugh.

Edit: When i ment SNL skits, i was thinking of the new ones, I like some of the old stuff.

Walken with Blue Osyter Cult will remain the greatest skit ever. Other classics, imo, are Da Bears!, TV Funhouse, the H is O, Private Eyes sketch with Willen Dafoe, and the classic stuff with Bill Murray and John Belushi, etc.

The best I would have to say are the commercials (don't know if these really count). My faves being: Bathroom Monkey, Chess for Girls, Old Glory Robot Insurance, The Bass Omatic, Big Red, The Bioflex Work Out.

Worst: The Cheerleaders, Mary Katherine Gallagher

Best skit? Hands down: Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey. If it was insane gibberish it was just weird shit that would make you laugh out of the sheer madness it took to put that shit down. I still fondly remember the one in which he mistook a human head for a peach.

I loved Sprokets, the Twin Peaks skit when Kyle MacLachlan hosted, Middle Aged Man, Will Ferrell doing Harry Carey, Goth Talk, Amy Poehler as the girl with one leg, the Blue Oyster Cult skit with Walken (brilliant) and TV Funhouse.

I know there's a bunch I'm forgetting.

UNFROZEN CAVEMAN LAWYER !! Lothar of the Hill People, Crystal Gravy, Cookie Dough sports drink, Brian Fellows, plus pretty much all of the ones mentioned above, and I know I'm forgetting alot. Overquoted but still funny are Matt Foley motivational speaker, and Celebrity Jeopardy. As for the shittiest: ANYTHING by Colin Quinn, and Molly Shannon.

My favorite sketch (or at least concept for a sketch) was "Tennis Talk with Time-traveling Scott Joplin." They did that perfectly. I think that Scott Joplin should be a recurring character [/code]

Wow. Aside from the cheerleaders, they all had movies made.

Yeah, Will Ferrel as Neil Diamon and as Harry Carey were always great. Those are the reason he is the man.

I'm suprised nobody mentioned Chris Walken's "Continental" for best sketch; the one where it's shown from the POV of his date. Blue Oyster Cult still reigns supreme, though.

The Massive Head Wound Harry skit with Dana Carvey makes me laughs my ass off. The worst episodes has to be Martin Lawrence and Tom Green's appearances. The whole show SUCKED.

Also Kevin Spacey imitating Jack Lemmon and Christopher Walken doing a test screen for Star Wars was hilarious.

The whole Charlton Heston show in '95
Jimmy Fallon - Nick Burns- Your Company's Computer Guy - "Oh it's the e-mail that's stupid, not you, right?", "They teach this type of stuff on Blue's Clues".
The only other times he really cracked me up were when he just started laughing at Will Farrell on the show.
Chris Farley - Chippendales Try-outs w/Patrick Swayze

the star wars screen tests were definitely great. richard freyfuss as C-3P0, "I told you I didn't want to wear the damn mask!"
the oops i crapped my pants commercial was good.
walken and the continental of course.
also when jeff daniels was a guest on the talk show hosted by chris elliot and they kept playing the clip of him having diarrhea in dumb and dumber.

there are too many bad ones to even get into. anything with molly shannon for a start.

Ah, back in the day when SNL had some balls left. Right before the Sandler/Farley explosion.

Best: None. Why? See below.

Worst: The one with Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake, and some guy that lived in the sewers. I admit, the song the sewer guy sang is pretty sweet, but then they had to ruin the entire skit. How? Well, when Britney and the sewer guy are about to kiss and Justin calls Britney back up, they had to use the dreaded...

FROZEN MUSIC CURSE!!!

You've all heard it. There are countless commercials that are victims of it, mainly comedy show commercials that always freeze the music whenever they get to the punchline of a joke. It's so annoying how they keep doing it these days! And when SNL did it, I stopped listening to it. If I wanted to watch it, I could just use the mute button, laughing only at visual jokes, and not the spoken jokes. And it's all thanks to the cursed curse!!! That's why I have nothing in the "Best" category. Thank you for reading this rant.

Best Skit: The McLaughlin Group (Dana Carvey)

It's just so unbearably funny. I've yet to see the BOC with Walken, though, maybe I just don't remember it? :/

Colin Quinn is just an unfunny guy all around. His show "Tough Crowd" is okay, if only for Nick DePaulo (sp?)
