Sat Dec 18, 2021: I loved this show but

I can never find the Christmas episode when Johnny LaRue wanted a string of paloponies from Santa and ended up dead drunk in the gutter. R.I.P. John Candy.

No problem.

1. OMGAWD.......absolutely loved SCTV, I think it was really better then SNL

the actors in the SCTV troupe were much more talented then some of the SNL actors. Some of the original SNL actors were good, but as a group??? I really think the SCTV group were so much better. JMHO.
