favorite SNL skit?

this is sooo hard, as there are so many to choose from...

but i'd have to say that my favorite of all time hs to be the toys skit with dan akroyd.

"yeah, y'know, it's uh, it's a bag of broken glass. it's fun. kids hold it up to the light, they see a bunch of colors. lookit that. heh. bag of broken glass."

I'm glad you started this..great idea..

I remember the Bag o Glass..
and the Bass o matic 2000
and Julia Child cutting herself while making a turkey..screaming "save the Livah!"

all DAn Akroyd

there was a Nicholas Cage skit.
Him and his wife, picking out baby names.
Every name she picked, he could think of 10 reasons why he would be harrassed as he grew up. Peter? no Dick? no...

Then a knock at the door

"telegram for Mr. Asswipe Johnson"

uggh....It's pronounced azWEEpay

Eddie Murphy doing Buckwheat or James Brown. They were good for a giggle.

There was a skit with Joe Montana where everything he thought could be heard. His parting line was something like, "I think I'll go upstairs and m-----bate." Quite a funny line coming from such a straight-laced guy.

"Lazy Sunday" was pretty good.

Weekend Update with Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtin. "Jane, you ignorant slut."

Dana Carvey impersonating anyone, especially Ross Perot.

Al Franken doing Stuart Smalley.

The Coneheads.

"Cheeboygah!"

Aykroyd's drool, bucket, sleuce and irrigation system, Belushi's Samurai, and especially Gilda Radner as "Candy Slice", Meyers' "Deiter" and "cheeky bum-looker" skits and of course "Hans and Franz".

Whatever did happen with that program anyway? It started sucking in the 90's and never looked back. They don't make comedians like they use to I suppose.

The Presidential Debates with Gore (Darrell Hammond) and Bush (Will Farrell). Too funny. Also from the Department of the Absurd, Nicolas Cage in The Adventures of Tiny Elvis. So stupid it's hilarious.

Also, the Jeopardy parody with Darrell Hammond as Sean Connery. They've done this a few times and it always cracks me up. Especially with Norm MacDonald as Burt Renyolds with the big foam cowboy hat.

celebrity jeopardy was....i've never known anything to be funnier.

"Quien es mas macho?"

The eighties were fantastic for SNL and as someone noted that all changed in th 90's.

I never saw this one, but ran across it looking at SNL transcript and it is great.

John Lovitz and Phil Hartman in "Johnny O'Connor."

Dana Carvey as Mr. Head wound, or something like that.

He showed up at a party, with a hellacious gaping, weeping head wound.
A little tired, he asked to lie down on the hosts sofa (a white sofa of course).

As he was lying there, a dog walked up and started eating the wound from his head.

The costume was obviously fashioned from real meat..And the dog went psycho on his head, trying to pull off the whole "wound wig".

The grossness of the whole thing is what killed me..!

"I'll take The Rapists for $500, Alec."

LOL

"just write down something you like. you can even lie to me."

"let's see what sean connery had to write....alex trebec. you like...me?"
"oh laddy. i know i give you a hard time, but it's all in good fun."
"well...thank you sean. let's see what you had to bid, friend."


"sucks. i can't believe i fell for that."

"BAAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!"

Alex: Name something you drink from.
Sean: What is a glove?

Without a doubt the best were the Cowbell/Blue Oyster Cult skit, and the one with Chris Farley finding out he's drinking the wrong coffee.

If anyone wants to see the Cowbell skit, here's the link.

heck yeah! I found the Chris Farley coffee skit. This is very close to being the best of my favorite SNL skits.

Here's the link to the video:

Hiya--

Favorite SNL skit(s)? Looking backwards--far, far, backwards,(becuse I can), who can ever forget The Coneheads, and/or Lothar of the Hill People?????

I think one of my favorited has to be Jim Carrey as a life guard at the hot tub.

"6 o'clock, this side is for lap swimming only"

Too many to choose from with the original cast. From more recent years Kevin Spacey crooning while the subtitles proclaimed stuff like, "No really, he's actually nuts. He grabbed me by the throat......" From the same show, the pot skit, "Not girly hits but manly bong hits." That was a good show.
