Trivia:
Despite the show's core theme of live comedy, on a few rare occasions stand-up segments weren't truly "live", but broadcast on a 7-second tape-delay: 13 December 1975 (Richard Pryor), 15 November 1986 (Sam Kinison), and 12 May 1990 (Andrew Dice Clay), each time to allow censoring any "accidental" expletives. moreGoofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: ...almost everything. Live television is largely exempt from the usual rules of goofs. moreQuotes:
Mister Robinson: Do you know what these are, boys and girls? These are drums. Do you know where drums come from? They come from Africa.[Sits down, begins playing and singing]
Mister Robinson: It's the eye of the tiger, it's the thrill of the fight...
[phone rings]
Mister Robinson: This is how you answer a phone in my neighborhood. WHAT IS IT? LOUD? NAH, THAT AIN'T LOUD; THIS IS LOUD!
[Blows a whistle into the phone, sits down and begins playing the drums again]
Mister Robinson: .
Mr. T.: [Beating on the door] Robinson! Robinson! I told you to stop beatin' them drums!
Mister Robinson: That's my new neighbor, boys and girls. But, don't worry, I put a new lock on the door. He can't get in hear.
[Starts playing the drums again]

Many people say that the years 1975-1980 were the best with John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Dan Aykroyd, etc of SNL. I have to disagree, it might be because I wasn't even born then or maybe I didn't get the humour when I saw it on Pay TV. Anyway I liked the years 1990 onwards with Chris Farley, Adam Sandler and later on after they left Will Ferrell.
Saturday Night Live is a classic, it is in it's record 30th year and they still have the great sketches but Will Ferrell is truly missed. The show keeps me in stitches and histerics and I still tune in when the new episodes appear on t.v.
I thank NBC for sticking with the show even when there were some rough, bland years most notably 1980-1981 and 1985-1986.
I recommend this show to everyone, it is great entertainment, heaps of laughs and good to watch to see which celebrity is hosting the show each week.
