The real problem with SNL and a lot of skit shows in general is that they generally have about 90 seconds of good material stretched out into five minute long skits.

A lot of sketch shows also have extremely dated references and celebrity impersonations to (then) current events and pop culture phenomenon that is lost to current audiences when watching them 20 to 30 years later.

So you’re left with people who weren’t around back then wondering or just plum forgot who the hell Arsenio Hall is and why his audience is WHOO WHOO WHOO WHOO WHOOing loudly.

The Kids in the Hall remains the GOAT sketch comedy show.

I feel the same way about Chevy Chase as some goons do about Steve Martin. I mean, sure, I remember liking Vacation and Christmas Vacation (European Vacation sucked poo poo) along with Three Amigos when I was young, but he always had this prickishness to his acting I could see right through even as a kid, and it turned out that he really is a massive prick IRL.

I can’t recall ever liking any other films or projects of his other than those three core films, and I haven’t watched any of those in years.

As for Steve Martin, Roxanne is an underrated Cyrano de Bergerac adaptation.

Steve Martin was also great as gently caress as the sadistic dentist in Little Shop of Horrors.

But then again, Little Shop of Horrors fuckin’ rules.

if you haven't seen the director's cut with the original ending DO IT

it's loving amazing and it's crazy that they threw it out because they clearly spent most of the budget on this insane 20 minute finale

I own the blu-ray which has both versions of the movie and it is loving amazing :hai:

But I do recall seeing a work print version of the film with the original ending some years before, and I don’t think it was the complete ending.

I fuckin’ loved The Completely Mental Misadventures of Ed Grimley when I was a kid. A nice one two punch of kooky with Pee Wee’s Playhouse on Saturday mornings.
