We did SNL. What's your favorite SCTV skit?

[camero]

For those of you who don't know SCTV was a Canadian SNL in the 70's and 80's.

Mine were the 3D House of Beef with John Candy
All the Great White North skits
John Candy playing a Redneck and blowing up Helen Reddy

1. CCCP TV

Or 3CP TV

Look at Yuri! He has new shoes!

See CCCP is so big you can fit 3 USAs in it!

[Rooktoven]

14. If I recall, CCCP TV lasted the entire show...

It kept jamming in and out, complete with the snowy fade in and out, vodka commercials, etc...

I seem to recall that "decadent Uzbeks" was a recurring theme...


"Look, lone star state. Lone star state is puny rock compared to vast universe of Soviet Union..."

[htuttle]

20. LOL! Yuri, show our viewers new minature Soviet TV camera!

[SPQR]

2. Prickley Heat

The takeoff of Body Heat starring Edith Prickley.

[Bok_Tukalo]

3. Tip O'Neil's 3D House of Representatives

<eom>

[lucidmadman]

4. Yeah...Candy and Flaherty..

...Celebrity Farm Blow up. "She Blowed up real good". Mr Mambo. The Schminkes(?) Polka Show. SCTV was so good it's hard to pin down one thing as the best.

[camero]

7. It was funny

Think it was the Farm Film Report. :)

[supernova]

5. Anything with Andrea Martin

Too funny. It's been so long since I've seen any episode of SCTV, though

[CanuckAmok]

6. Tied: Mrs. Felbo's Tiny Town and Pepe Longsocks...

Particularly the Mrs. Felbo with special guest star G. Gordon Liddy.

"It's....Mrs. Felbo's Tiny Town,
Come on in and hang around..."

[camero]

8. I remember that

She was funny.

[DODI]

9. This is a difficult one

Ben Hur -- too funny. They turn into leopards!

Woody Allen & Bob Hope "She has arthritis?"

Fishin' Musician with the Tubes

The White North with "If the Canadian's built the arm on the space shuttle, could it open beer cans." -- Love you Bob & Doug

[salinen]

11. Eugene Levy

as Egor, Bobby Bitman show.

[lucidmadman]

10. They did a parody of Ingmar Bergman films...

..."what's for dinner Schnookims?"
"Brocoli, Sven".
Sven shoots himself in the head.

[camero]

12. I forgot about Tex & Edna

:)

[chookie]

13. Parody of The Godfather

It opens with Levy as Floyd the Barber, telling Don Cabellero that Opie has been hanging out with some THUGS; I want you to break Opie's arms the way he broke my barber pole.

Yosh and Stan Schmenge do the melodies of famous Lutonian composer John Villiams! Mrs Vilva Yashke, for her cabbage rolls and coffee -- how does she do it, week after week?

Celebrity Pet Peeves. Pavoratti "Beatle boots. You can't get them anymore. Most comfortable thing I ever had on my feet."

3D House of Pancakes.

And "Chariots of Eggs" -- parody of Chariots of Fire, with Hall and Oates.

Dave Thomas as Bob Hope (very scary) and as Liberace in the SCTV Christmas special.

I miss SCTV so badly. Too bad the producer (Jack Rhodes, one of Pittsburgh's most cherished assholes) is a total asshole, and is sitting on all this stuff and refuses to re-release it.

[camero]

16. I know...bummer

The last time I saw it I was in Canada watching the CBC. :(

[htuttle]

21. Dave Thomas does the best Bob Hope in comedy

Not only that, but one time, he blowed up REAL GOOD!

[Rooktoven]

28. By the way (Blowed up Real Good)--

If anyone has a sound file of "Blowed Up Real Good" I'd be really grateful.

(mesg me)

[BigMcLargehuge]

15. Battle of the PBS Stars

Carl Sagan's team vs William F. Buckley's team.

17. oh, geez ...

You beat me to it! Remember John Candy as Julia Child?

[BigMcLargehuge]

32. Mr. Rodgers is on the ropes... but wait! He's....

grabbed King Friday!

I love the ringer that William F. Buckley's team brought in for the three man football too.

[BlackVelvetElvis]

22. Beverly Sills vs. Joan Sutherland

In the pole vaulting contest. That makes me scream.

[lucidmadman]

25. I can hardly stand it...

...I'm laughing so much.Remembering stuff.

A few years ago. Before that dullard Carson Daley was host on late night NBC. They were playing SCTV in half hour increments. It was SO COOL to see that stuff again.
