Favorite SNL quote or sketch?

[GSTom1]

It's Christmas time and Alec Baldwin visits a talk radio show hosted by Ana Gastyer and Molly Shannon (?). Alec plays Mr. Schweaty and talks about his round Christmas treats.

"My schweaty balls come in all different sizes... I have large balls, and small balls."

"OoO, these schweaty balls are mighty tasty... they melt in my mouth."

Lindy, although I haven't seen much SNL... I must agree with you that that was the best I've seen of it!

Gotta add another one --

Nick Burns, your company's computer guy!

I don't like all of Jimmy Fallon's stuff, but Nick Burns ROCKS!! We have about 10 of those guys roaming the halls at work.

No kidding. I count 5 out of those 14 amazing comics you listed as gone. I miss all of them, but especially Chris Farley and John Candy.

One I always remember has Steve Martin and Bill Murray as tourists looking at something off camera and saying,
"What the hell is that?"
"Oh I know what that is."
"What the hell is that?"
Etc. Etc.

And the expression on Myer's face when he says that is PRICELESS!

This skit is on the "SNL , The Best of Phil Hartman" video, if I'm not mistaken.

I love the early stuff too, but I almost cry laughing whenever I see this skit.

I love one of the Jim Carrey episodes. It's the one where they have him acting as the overbearing lifeguard of the kiddy pool, and especially the last sketch of his new weight-loss fad. RIDE THE SNAKE!!!

Back in the days of Dan Ackroyd and Garrett Wade, its a spoof on those low budget local talk shows. It starts off with the title and you think it is a feminist show, then the cam pans down and there are a bunch of guys on the panel with beer bellies and such. Ackroyd has a poyester suit and shades on, is chain smoking, and is constantly adjusting his tie. They complain about women.

Also:

Theodoric Of York: Medieval Judge with Steve Martin.

That reminds me of the McLaughlin Group skit with Dana Carvey as McLaughlin. No matter what anyone answered with, he'd say "WRONG!". You'd have to see it, but here are some quotes:

Names he called others:

-Jack-o-London JB Jubby Jubby Jelingham
-More Teeny Tiny Tabletops

John Goodman: You're insane John.
McLaughlin: WRONG! I am perfectly sane, everyone else is insane and trying to steal my magic bag!

McLaughlin: What did you have for breakfast?
-Wheaties.
McLaughlin: WRONG! You had Special K with banana!

I also like pretty much anything Cheri Oteri did, especially the Simma Down skits.

Hrmmm, Chris Kattan as Mango, Julia Sweeny as Androgenous Pat, Adam Sandler as Opera Man, Tim Meadows as Ladies Man, and John Belushi as Samurai Warrior.

I think that's it.
