Ahhh disturbing doesn’t do that justice. Glenn Fry forcing his gimp to eat dog food during an oil rub down was enough to sincerely hault my laughter. I laughed, I grimaced, but I laughed in the end 🙂

Was it SNL that had a Julia Child parody in which she pits six olives and six cherries, then puts the olive pits into the cherries and the cherry pits into the olives? It might have been on _Fridays_, not _SNL_, but for years I couldn’t even talk about that without cracking up.

But this one’s definitely _SNL_:

where Martin Short, as Ed Grimley, is beside himself with excitement waiting for Pat Sejak to interview him for _Wheel Of Fortune_.

Carry on.

Any of the Cheri Oteri/Will Ferrell cheerleader skits, but in particular the one with Jim Carrey.

And has anyone mentioned Mary Catherine Gallagher? “Supah-star!”

Just remembered one no one seems to have mentioned yet;

The ad for the “amazing Hypnoto’s” performance on broadway: “I loved it…it was much better than cats…I’m going to see it again and again…”
