What are your favorite Saturday Night Live Sketches?… Just ask Christopher Walken
On this week’s Imperfect Podcast, we discuss our favorite (SNL) Saturday Night Live sketches and actors. SNL is one of the longest running shows in history and the most successful sketch comedy ever. For decades it has been making people laugh, from one generation to the next. The original cast, called “The Not Ready For Prime-Time Players”, consisted of John Belushi, Dan Aykroyd, Jane Curtin, Garrett Morris, Gilda Radner, Laraine Newman, and Chevy Chase, who was replaced by Bill Murray in the second season. Many noteworthy comedians are mentioned such as Martin Short, Phil Hartman, Billy Crystal, Chris Rock, Will Farrell, Tina Fey, Adam Sandler and Chris Farley, just to name a few. We also mention some of the most memorable sketches that were made into full-length features such as the Blues Brothers, the Coneheads, Superstar, Night at the Roxbury, etc. Many of the cast members and writers moved on to very successful careers in all facets of show business, including script writing, playwriting, directing, standup, and of course acting on the big screen. When you look at some of today’s funniest and most well known comedians, chances are they were once a cast member on SNL.
