I love that I'm old enough to remember this skit 😂
Michael struggling not to break...esp looking in the mirror was hilarious 😂😂
I remember the "Al Franken" decade well 😆
Am I the only person in the world that liked the Stuart Smalley movie? I don't know why, but every time I watch it, I crack up. Give it a chance if you ever come across it. It looks goofy and it is, but it actually has some truly funny as well as emotional moments. The supporting cast is really great and it deals with some real family issues in a comedic manner without making fun of it. Harold Ramis directed, so perhaps this gives it a leg up over all the other SNL movies that's not Wayne's World.

No. I liked it, and so did the person I saw it with.
Hysterical comedy writer and one of the best senators the Democrats had in recent years. It's a shame they threw him under the Metoo bus.
" when you throw the ball into the hoop".
Why doesn't Al Franken run for president? Before he's 80 years old

Maybe this election can also be stolen for him.
I will always remember Al Franken for his cameo he made in ‘Trading Places’ when he played a dopey Amtrak employee lmao

Let us not fall into a shame spiral from the knowledge we should be doing something more productive.

Yeah, but it wouldn't be nearly as funny, because the premise is already out there. When MJ appeared with Stuart, it was out of left field and hilarious for that very reason. Plus Al and Michael both fed each other and hit it out if the park.

Why don't you do some shadow puppets while your at it?
You know, everyone has a selfish side, a competitive side, a prick side. Men and women. Its just hard for me to believe this guy purposely harassed women. Maybe something dumb a couple of times the old school sexism, but not real victimizing harassment. I just don't think so. I'm sure he's missed in the Senate too where he at least tried to tell the truth and accomplish something good for the American people right or wrong.

I saw that live, and yes it was "funny". Although the humor would be lost today (good riddance). The skit that stayed with me was when they played two politicians going at each other in an election.
Pffft
Hey Rich. Ask Al about his plane ride with the military. And speciffically, as Al about the women who was, and is, serving our country. Glad you, and dem Dan are having a grand old time. You know dem Patrick. You people need a lesson.
