Nominee For One Of The Best SNL Sketches Ever.
Edited on Mon Oct-13-03 08:55 PM by jayfish
“The Barry Gibb Talk Show.” Hilarious from start to finish. Actually the whole show was pretty damn good. Anyone else catch this? Here are the lyrics to the the theme song. This song alone is classic. If they ever do another SNL music show this should included.


Here we are
In a room full of strangers
Discussing Politics
And The Issues Of The Day
Well I want to talk to you
Though you may not want me to
I’m Still Gonna Talk To You
I don’t care what you say

Talk’en it up (talk’en it up)
On the Barry Gibb Talk Show
Talk’en bout issues
Talk’en bout real important issues
Talk’en it up (ya were talk’en it up)
On the Barry Gib Talk Show
Talk’en bout Politics
In this crazy crazy time

Jay

2. Prose and Cons...
...with Eddie Murphy. "C-I-L-L, kill my landlord."

Stevie Wonder for Nikon Cameras was pretty funny too. If politically incorrect.

24. He Did Better This Past Sat. Though.
He almost lost it a couple of times but pulled it together. It wasn't even Sanz's fault this time. BTW I thought Timberlake was a pleasant suprise. One of the best hosts in a while.

14. That was my favorite era
A few classics:

Men's synchronized swimming.
Fake vomit 60 minutes. "I know that, you think I don't know that?"
Buckwheat... Has been shot. How did it happen? Let's take a look.
John David Stutts, "We'll be here every night until this madness ends"
Piscopo, Brad Hall, "Terrain in Maine is stained with acid rain."
Eddie Murphy as Mr. White. "Are there any other banks like this?"
James Brown's celebrity hot tub party.
Tippy turtle. "hee hee hee hee"
"I hate it when that happens"

Wow, there's too many from that cast. SNL used to be really good!

4. "Colonel Angus"
Hands down the funniest thing they've done in the past 5 years. Walken is a gem.

Transcript follows. Bear in mind it must be read with an antebellum Southern accent.

Cast
Melinda.....Amy Poehler
Daddy.....Chris Parnell
Miss Anabelle.....Rachel Dratch
Farm Boy.....Jeff Richards
Bedelia.....Maya Rudolph
Colonel Angus.....Christopher Walken

<open on exterior, Civil War-era plantation home, as members of a Southern family sit on the porch and reflect. A banner above the eaves reads: "Welcome Home, Colonel Angus!" Due to their deep Southern drawls, the entire cast pronounces "Colonel Angus" as "Cunnilingus.">

Melinda: <sitting on the steps> When's he gonna get here, Mama?

Miss Anabelle: <setting on her rocker> Anytime now, child.. be patient.

Melinda: Is he very handsome?

Miss Anabelle: <chuckles> He's been away at war so long, I don't rightly remember.

Melinda: Mama! Look! There's a carriage on the horizon!

Miss Anabelle: Oh? <looking about> Well, where, dear child?

Melinda: There! <points> Traveling down the road! Darting in and out of the cotton!

Miss Anabelle: Oh.. oh! Well, that must be the Colonel! Colonel Angus!

Melinda: <excited> Could it really be, Mama? Could it really be Colonel Angus?

Miss Anabelle: ..I don't know, uh.. We haven't seen Colonel Angus around these parts for years..

<Daddy steps onto the porch, from inside the plantation>

Daddy: Are you ladies out here talking about Colonel Angus?

Melinda: Yes, Daddy! I can't wait to meet him!

Daddy: Oh, watch out, Melinda! Once a woman is introduced to Colonel Angus, she'll settle for nothing less.

Melinda: Daddy, they say all the womenfolk just love Colonel Angus!

Daddy: Hmm.. I don't know why people make such a big fuss over Colonel Angus!

Miss Anabelle: I myself never much cared for Colonel Angus! He rubs me the wrong way. I'm not sure why.. can't put my finger on it..

Daddy: Colonel Angus is an acquired taste! Bedelia!

<Bedelia, the maid, comes running onto the porch>

Bedelia: Yes, Sir?

Miss Anabelle: Break out some fresh linens, Bedilia! We're gonna have Colonel Angus here tonight!

Bedelia: Colonel Angus? I don't know nothin' about no Colonel Angus!

Daddy: Well, get ready, Bedelia. If I remember correctly, Colonel Angus can be very messy!

<at last, Colonel Angus steps onto the porch>

Daddy: As I live and breath! Colonel Angus!

Miss Anabelle: Oh, Colonel Angus! You old Carpetbagger!

Colonel Angus: Anabelle! I fear my visit.. is an inconvenience.

Miss Anabelle: <laughing> Nonsense, Colonel Angus! We're always happy to see your shiny face!

Daddy: Colonel Angus! What brings you to these parts?

Colonel Angus: I'm headed.. down South!

Daddy: Hmm. Of course!

Miss Anabelle: Uh.. how far south are you headed, Colonel Angus?

Colonel Angus: Tain't really sure. I prefer the Deep South.. I like the heat.. the humidity..

Daddy: Hmmm.. sir, I do not!

Colonel Angus: And who is this.. little rosebud?

Daddy: This is our daughter, Melinda.

Melinda: Colonel Angus. The pleasure is all mine. I've heard so much about you.

Colonel Angus: Well, my dear.. don't believe everything you hear.. about ol' Colonel Angus. Colonel Angus might be rough.. Colonel Angus might not smell like a bed of roses.. but, deep down.. Colonel Angus is very sweet.

Miss Anabelle: Well, we hope you'll spend the night with us.

Colonel Angus: Well, thank you, Miss Anabelle. And if I overstay my welcome.. just tap me on the head.

Melinda: I always dreamnt of the day.. Colonel Angus would rest his head at Shady Thicket. I always begged my Daddy: "Tell me stories about you and Colonel Angus!" But he never will.

Daddy: <chuckling> Well, that's because all of my experiences with Colonel Angus end in embarrassment!

<they all share a hearty laugh>

Daddy: Colonel Angus.. I hear rumors.

Colonel Angus: <sighs> The incident.. at Big Beaver..

Daddy: Yes?

Colonel Angus: It's true, I'm afraid.. ten men were lost.. and I suffered a great injury.. to my jaw.

Daddy: Is it true you've been stripped of your rank?

Colonel Angus: Yes! It is. There'll be no more "Colonel Angus", ladies. Call me by my given name.

Miss Anabelle: Oh, Anal..

Melinda: I so love the sound of "Colonel Angus".. but I guess I could give Anal Angus a try.

Colonel Angus: <to a passing farm boy> You there, Boy! ride into town and tell the Postmaster.. that if anyone is looking for Anal Angus.. to come knockin' at the rear entrance.. of Shady Thicket.

Farm Boy: Euuuggghhh..

Colonel Angus: If you'll excuse me.. I'd like to freshen up.

<Colonel Angus turns, and enters the plantation home>

Miss Anabelle: Of course! We'll call you when it's time to eat, Anal! Bedelia lays out quite a spread.

Melinda: Well, I think Colonel Angus is delightful!

Daddy & Miss Anabelle: Hmmm....

Miss Anabelle: You won't.. after forty-five minutes.

Daddy: No-o-o.. you can only take so much of Colonel Angus.

13. Oh, Gawd, yes!
I think I posted as much the first time it was on.

This past SNL with Justin Timbertoes was hilarious. I never knew Mr. Britney could act, but he's pretty good at it, especially as Jessica Simpson.

The Barry Gibb show was side-splittingly funny, too.

If you have a P2P program like Kazaa, there are several clips of it floating around. It seems that the "copy pirates" just can't get enough Colonel Angus.

47. Get down on your knees and pray with me Henry!
What, you don't want to pray, Jewboy!?!

Talking to the picture of Kennedy...."You had sex, WITH WOMEN, here in the White House....well that never happened when Dick Nixon was in office"!

"Pat it's cold in here"
Pat: "Well throw another tape on the fire".

Jebus, memory banks opened up on that one......one of my all time faves!

8. hard to choose
from the old stuff - but my favorite was Belushi and Ackroyd as Kissinger and Nixon, doing the resignation eve scene in the Oval office. Nixon/Ackroyd forcing Kissenger/Belushi to pray with him...

The Coneheads, dispensing six packs of beer and fried eggs to trick-or-treaters...

And Miss Emily Litella - always funny - never mind...

17. Well, it's hard to pick an absolute
favorite, especially considering the gems of the first five years, but I'd have to say that "Mel Gibson, Dream Gynecologist" was one of the funniest I've ever seen on SNL. His waiting room was overflowing, the women were all primping or dealing with their makeup or hair. Nora Dunn came out of her appointment insisting on being scheduled for another breast exam in three months.

"But you only need them once a year", the receptionist tells her, and she then snaps that "I'm overly cautious, you dim bulb twit, schedule it now, dammit!" Mel Gibson comes out and says that, since he's so overloaded and can't ever fit everyone in, he's hired another doctor to assist him and introduces Jon Lovitz. The women all groan and put away their makeup and stampede for the door. It's a lot more detailed than that, but it was absolutely hilarious and still is, whenever I see it.

50. "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I'm just a caveman."
"I fell on some ice and later got thawed out by some of your scientists. Your world frightens and confuses me! Sometimes the honking horns of your traffic make me want to get out of my BMW.. and run off into the hills, or wherever.. Sometimes when I get a message on my fax machine, I wonder: 'Did little demons get inside and type it?' I don't know! My primitive mind can't grasp these concepts. But there is one thing I do know - when a man like my client slips and falls on a sidewalk in front of a public library, then he is entitled to no less than two million in compensatory damages, and two million in punitive damages. Thank you."

19. A few of my recent faves
Any of "The Continental" sketches

Christopher Walken for Skittles

That robot insurance commercial with Sam Watterson (robots want to steal your medicine)

Talkin about with Frank Sinatra, the one when Hartman as Sinatra refers to Sinead O'connor as "Mr. Clean")

Sinatra records "Duets"

The lost footage of Citizen Kane

The 1988 Democratic debate about NOT wanting to run against George Bush because he was so popular...

Anytime Dan Akroyd played Bob Dole was a scream too.

20. Mr. Tarkanian, the angry Boss. (Will Ferrell)
Edited on Mon Oct-13-03 10:07 PM by FlashHarry
< open on interior, Mr. Tarkanian's office, as he interviews a Job Applicant >

Mr. Tarkanian: And we offer full benefits, and three weeks' paid vacation.

Job Applicant: Oh? Three weeks? Wow!

Mr. Tarkanian: Yeah.. I'm not gonna lie to you, Kirk, you're very high on our list, and we want you to work here very much. So, what do you think?

Job Applicant: I, uh.. I think I want the job.

Mr. Tarkanian: Fantastic!

Job Applicant: Oh, excellent!

Mr. Tarkanian: Great. So, we'll give you a pass key, and assign you a desk and a parking space, and..

Female Employee: < timidly approaches > Excuse me, Mr. Tarkanian?

Mr. Tarkanian: < angry > Why are you interrupting me?!

Female Employee: Well, I just thought that..

Mr. Tarkanian: You thought?! You DO NOT INTERRUPT ME WHEN I AM BUSY!! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!! I do NOT want you to pull this AMATEUR BULLCRAP, ALRIGHT?!! I'm a PROFESSIONAL! Do you HEAR me?!! Do you UNDERSTAND ME?!!

Female Employee: < frightened > Yes.. Mr. Tarkanian.. < runs out of office >

Mr. Tarkanian: < returns to Job Applicant as though nothing had happened > So, you should probably go to Personnel and get started on your paperwork..

Job Applicant: < bewildered > What, what was that about..?

Mr. Tarkanian: Oh.. oh, sorry you had to see that.. she can, uh, she can be a real bitch! < laughs > Hey, you're timing is perfect - we're having the company barbecue next month. I hope you like barbecues.

Job Applicant: Oh, I enojy barbecue quite a bit, actually!

Mr. Tarkanian: Good.

Male Employee: < enters > Here you are, Mr. Tarkanian, the new copy's finished.

Mr. Tarkanian: < looks it over > Okay, you know what? I don't know if I would have done this.. yeah.

Male Employee: Is there a problem with it, or..?

Mr. Tarkanian: < stands > You do NOT hand in CRAP like THIS!! This looks like you took a CRAP or a DUMP in the PRINTER!! You are SCUM!! I should FIRE you and BURN down your FRIGGIN' HOUSE!! I am THIS close to RAPING YOU!!

Male Employee: I'm sorry.. < exits >

Job Applicant:

Mr. Tarkanian: Office politics. Sometimes I think this place is like "Ally McBeal".

Job Applicant: Is this.. is this how you deal with your employees?

Mr. Tarkanian: What?

Job Applicant: Uh.. I.. I'm not sure I want to work in this kind of environment.

Mr. Tarkanian: < looks at his Secretary > Hold on a second..

Secretary: < tending a personal call > Car accident?! Oh, my God, is he okay..?

Mr. Tarkanian: HEY!! HEY!! NOT ON MY WATCH!! NO PERSONAL PHONE CALLS!! ALRIGHT?! I SHOULD POUNCH YOU IN THE MOUTH!! USE COMPANY TIME TO TALK TO YOUR DISGUSTING WHORE FRIENDS?!! NO!! < hangs up phone > YOU DO NOT DO THIS!! YOU DO NOT!! < bitch-slaps her >

Secretary: < cries >

Mr. Tarkanian: < casually returns to his desk > Hey-ey-ey! Just takin' care of some business! You want to go out for a beer and celebrate?

Job Applicant: I-I-I don't think I want to work here..

Mr. Tarkanian: Why? What's wrong? < Black Employee enters eating a donut > HEY!! HEY!!

Black Employee: < confused > What is it, Mr. Tarkanian?

Mr. Tarkanian: < stands > Oh, thank you, that's exactly the response I'm looking for! < kicks Black Employee down > Now, get up! GET UP, you CRAZY BLACK MAN! I’m going to make you DRINK my PISS!! < fumbles with his zipper >

Black Employee: < scared > Hey, are you crazy, man?!!

Mr. Tarkanian: < primal scream > I am a STRONG man!! ANYONE in this office, take a RUN AT ME!!

Scott Jurgenson: < enters carrying a trident and a net > Mr. Tarkanian!! I am ready to take you!! I have been LIFTING WEIGHTS and doing COCAINE all day!! And I want a BIG PIECE of YOU, sir!!

Mr. Tarkanian: < excited > OHHHHHH!!! SCOTT JURGENSON!! I LOVE it!! I am ACTUALLY gonna MURDER YOU!!

< Scott attempts to attack Mr. Tarkanian with the trident, but Tarkanian punches him in the face and seizes the trident away, then pushes Scott to the ground and stabs him thirty-three times with the trident, as Job Applicant watches in horror >

Mr. Tarkanian: < finished, nonchalantly returns to his desk > Alright.. sorry to keep you waiting.. let's get you logged on to your computer.

Job Applicant: You are a terrible, terrible man!

Mr. Tarkanian: Well.. I'm a stickler! We take a lot of pride around here. It's not easy running the best - well, the fourth best - in-flight magazine in the business.

Job Applicant: I don't really think I want to work here, thank you.

Mr. Tarkanian: Well, that's a real shame. That article you wrote for Continental about Peter Falk's favorite restaurants in San Fransisco really turned some heads around here.

Job Applicant: You just murdered one of your employees with a trident!

Mr. Tarkanian: You know what? Just work here, okay? Take some time to weigh the pros and cons. Pros: you'll be working for a slightly-above in-flight magazine, for $22,400 a year; cons: me, kicking you 'til there's blood in your stool, then grabbing your wife's boobies while you're tied up with a racquetball shoved in your mouth. Now, balance it out, and think about it..

Job Applicant: < stands > I just don't think I want to work here!

Mr. Tarkanian: Fair enough. Ordinarily, I'd whip your nuts with a car antenna for that kind of callous attitude - but you thought about it, and you don't want to work here. < spots Secretary exiting the office > HEY!! YOU GET BACK HERE!! < chases screaming secretary out of office >

23. Michael Jordan and Stuart Smalley
Laughed my butt off...

Stuart: Michael, aren't you worried that other people are better than you?

Michael: No.

Stuart: Now, Michael, aren't you concerned that someone else can do your job better than you?

Michael: NO.

Stuart: Michale, aren't we in denial here?

Michael: No.

It went on... I can't remember it verbatim. But it was damn funny. Especially when Michael did the affirmation: I'm good enough, I'm smart enough, and doggone it, people like me.

Classic.

That deal was funny. I liked the one you mentioned, but Justin Timberlake just sucked in it (surprise, surprise), and the other dude had to totally compensate for him.

41. Gilda Radner
as the young Girl Scout. Her Uncle (Ackroyd?) comes into her bedroom......totally inappropriate behavior on her character's part(huggin', kissin' and "jumpin'" all over "Uncle"? I almost choked on that one. It still remains one of my favorite SNL skits.....I LOVED Radner.

Then there was the classic Chevy and the drool bucket.....LMAO! I don't watch SNL anymore but in it's "infancy" it was the best,irreverant, rude, off the wall comedy show of its time.

55. Easy for me to pick
Edited on Tue Oct-14-03 08:10 AM by Forkboy
because I hate SNL and they rarely do anything funny at all imo.

My pick is Kevin Spacey doing other actors trying out for roles in Star Wars.His Christopher Walken impersonation is the high point of SNL since the glory days.Spacey doing Walter Mattheau ("Jawa? What the hell's an Jawa?!?!") is funny stuff.

59. Al Gore's Trent Lott on Hardball: "I will leave no White Child Behind"
That had to be one of the best episodes i've seen in a long time. Al Gore hosted SNL right after the Trent Lott comment about how great our country would have been if we would have elected Strom Thurmond (a racists) as president.

Gore dressed up Trent Lott and it was funny as hell.

You can catch the episode here

I also liked Dana Carvey doing Tom Brokaw. The skit was Tom wanted to go on a 4 week vacation so he had to tape all the possible leaders in advance.

"Gerald Ford was tragically eaten by lions today at the age of 82, and I'm gay."

Later,
