It was quite the Oscar Wilde Sketch, but Jimbo will probably recognize it.

This may turn out to be The Last Waltz of reunion shows,hopefully without any pomposity in the interviews.
Hope that they do show the "Scorsese directed" spoof of Harvey.

There is only one thing worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about.

That part made me hesitate. Kimmel is totally inappropriate for this. It's reminiscent of when CBS had Ray Romano host the Dick Van Dyke Show reunion special.

I agree. However, my brother and I used to stay up past SNL to watch the far funnier SCTV. It's a shame the great John Candy isnt around for this. Or Harold Ramis for that matter.

I was a fan of SCTV. There's a thread or a thread drift on this somewhere, because I have posted my love before.

SCTV was indeed great. They took full advantage of the format -- they took advantage of the time that they had to perfect good skits (SNL doesn't have this luxury), the took advantage of an overarching narrative to unite the skits (a television station) so it could have some running gags and subplots. And they assembled some all time greats from Second City, so the talent was "proven."

Great video! I'll bet they wrote some of those ads themselves, they were so SCTV-esque.

John Candy,Dave Thomas,and Kevin Kline in a spoof of The Hustler. Don't know what it's from, but pretty sure it 's not SCTV.

It's from the Lorne Michaels' produced The New Show, a sketch comedy series that only lasted 9 episodes in 1984. Many of the people who passed through SNL in previous years were on the show.
