I’ve always been fond of The Continental.
Have some Cham-paan-yah…
Yeah, Walken should host SNL every year.
Those are all good but one of my favs is also the Welshly Arms Hotel sketch.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen that one.
More Cowbell! I Love Will Ferrel doing the Cowbell in Blue Oyster Cult. That one is so funny.
My #1 and #2 are very close.
More Cowbell is cool, but it is becoming grossly overexposed, and especially hyped as classic among internet techies.
Aside from Brasky, of which you know my fondness, one skit that’s coming to mind as a favorite is Tracy Morgan’s sewer-
dwelling “Woodrow”, when Britney Spears falls head over heels for him, and she leaves her life behind to live with him in the sewer. (Hmmm, life imitating art – maybe that’s why she fell for K-Fed!)

That’s part of the reason I put it at #2.
I only saw part of the Britney Spears episode.
Some honorable mentions for me are…
The Delicious Dish
The Adobe Car
Nerf Crotch Bats
Norm Macdonald as Letterman
Norm Macdonald as Bob Dole
Captain Jim and Pedro
Eddie Murphy living as a white person (this should be in the top ten actually)
Joe Montana as the guy who says exactly what he thinks
The Molecular Man
Some new ones I like are
Debbie Downer
Nuni and Nooni the art couple
The Woomba
Easily #1 for me: Will Ferrell as Neil Diamond on VH-1’s Storytellers – “I wrote this one after I killed a drifter to get an erection.”
Oh I loved that one. “Few people know that I’m fueled creatively by my massive hatred of
immigrants.”
Ok and as long as we’re talking about favorite skits. One of my all time favorite skits was on Living Color. It was Jim Carrey doing Vanilla Ice.
Debbie Downer was great the first few times, had potential but alas.. down the tubes.
I love the JimmyFallon/Chris Kattan/ Horatio/ Tracy singing skit (the christmas song)
Matt Foley is one of my all time favorite skits EVER!
Church Lady!
What was the one where Adam Sandler called up Shannen Dougherty?
That Adam Sandler sketch was great. It think it was called The Denise Show.
