I'm 27, so I haven't seen all 40 years of SNL, obviously, but having it as a staple in my life; the show has been referenced, googled, and re-watched pretty frequently over the course of the last couple decades.
On a side note: Remember Mad TV? That was pretty sweet, "Carl, throw down the loofah - I need to wipe off some dead skin!"
Back to SNL - Let's proceed.. In no particular order... and obviously I haven't even touched the surface...
Adam Sandler
Adam Sandler movies feel like "Home" to me. Whenever I'm in a funk, or sad, or bored, or scrolling through the channels and happen to catch one... Adam Sandler makes me laugh.
Name that movie...
"That's your home! Are you too good for your home? Answer me!"
"Hip - Hip Hop - Hip Hop Anonymous"

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul" |

They did it again! The chemistry between these two is awesome, from The Wedding Singer to Blended, I truly hope these two go for another.
And for the ridiculous few who didn't know the answers to my pop-quiz... in order of appearance: Happy Gilmore, Big Daddy, Billy Madison, 50 First Dates, Blended.
There are many more, but your attention span can't handle it.
Chris Farley
Sad face. Chris Farley was an amazing actor who was taken far before his time at 33 years old of an overdose. Farley was on SNL from '90 - '95.
Chris Farley starred in three movies that were released the three years before his death - that you need to watch.
Name that movie...
"Rectum? Damn near killed'em!"

Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph and Kristin Wiig

Talk about inspiration. I thought I was funny (no one else does, but I seem to entertain myself just fine). I couldn't ever do what these few do. Specifically in front of people.
Tina Fey, author of Bossy Pants (of which I reviewed here) started off as a writer for SNL before taking over "Weekend Update" in 2000. For a total of six season, she redefined beauty.
Amy Poehler, who met Fey in an improv class in Chicago in 1993, starred on SNL from '01 - '09. Her hit TV Series, Parks and Recreation will air it's hour long season finale on Tuesday February 24th.
Maya Rudolph spent 9 seasons making us laugh with her hilarious impressions of Oprah, Maya Angelou and Beyonce on SNL from '99 - '08.
Kristin Wiig spent 7 seasons most recently of the four - from '05 - '12.
OMG - Remember when Liza Minelli Tried to Turn off a Lamp..

Mary Katherine Gallagher & The Spartan Cheerleaders
"Sometimes, when I get nervous... " Good stuff - and contrary to popular belief, it doesn't get old! People love hearing that when they're drunk.
Did anyone see The Today Show's Halloween episode this year? That was awesome. The Spartan cheerleaders debuted on SNL January 20, 1996 and re-appeared October 31, 2014 on NBC in the AM
Justin Timberlake, Jimmy Fallon and Adam Samberg
No Words...
Liquorville..
Put a Ring on it...
Dick in a box...
I threw it on the ground...
All of these things and WAY more (referenced below) will be the reason why we all sit ourselves down, in real time, and watch TV tonight... even with the commercials. We can't miss one moment.
Here's the WAY: Chris Rock, Molly Shannon, Bill Murray, Gilda Radner, Bill Hader, Dan Akroyd, Seth Meyers, Eddie Murphy, Rachel Dratch, Fred Armisen, Cheri Oteri, Phil Hartman, Chevy Chase, John Belushi, Mike Myers, Dana Carvey, Jon Lovitz, Kate McKinnon, Will Ferrell... THERE ISN'T ENOUGH TIME!!!
