Wrong. Matt Foley was a character Chris came up with himself. He used to do the character in Chicago with Second City. In the documentary it even mentions "he had a character he wanted to do on SNL.... He had done it in Chicago...." Bob Odenkirk may have wrote the SCRIPT for that episode but Matt Foley was Chris's own creation. In the documentary we actually meet the REAL Matt Foley who is a Catholic Priest who Chris knew and Chris named the character after.

I just finished reading "The Chris Farley Show" biography. This week with Chris hosting SNL is talked about in-depth by many who were there. It was very apparent that he was NOT well at all and shouldn't have been hosting in the first place, yet Lorne went ahead with it and everyone fell in line. He ran wild the entire week he was there. Chris was SO much better than how he was here and it's sad this was his last TV appearance.

Hard to believe this would be the final time we’d get to see Chris Farley as his iconic Matt Foley character….actually, considering how much his health has sadly deteriorated by looking at this sketch, it’s not hard to believe. Compared to how he was in his first sketch as Matt, his voice got hoarse, he was so out of breath, and he looked very out of shape. The substance abuse really took a toll on him. And yet, he still gave it his all and he was still funny as hell. I miss that talented man.

It is sad. I got teary eyed.

Chris just looked and seemed so out of it. Its such a shame he died. And we knew how funny he was without the drugs, but yet he felt he had to keep using them... Oh Chris... If you only knew!

It’s easy to judge others when you’ve never walked in their shoes... we don’t know what problems he was facing and the real shame is how people & society have created such a stigma about mental health issues and always judge others when they have tried to seek relief from their emotional pain with various substances, instead of giving them our love and support and letting them know there is no shame in seeking help for whatever emotional or mental problems they may have.

You can see how his body was screaming for him to “take it down a few notches”..so sad, RIP Chris

farley and ferrell :)

I miss Chris, he was one of a kind. Godspeed ❤

Chris would've liked the comments here about confronting addiction, he had a lot sympathy for people in his own rehab spells. Without a doubt the number 1 celebrity that should be brought back to life if we could pick one

I just now found it. Totally a comic genius, he was!!! RIP THE GREATEST CHRIS FARLEY!!!

(spits out coffee) shut your pipe hole ! missy ! Back off padre that locker room is the closest thing to a home I've had in 15 years !

God this hurts to watch. 😭 poor guy.

4:06-4:08 I think everyone has one person they want Farley to scream this to every day! 🤣

Well ladifrickinda! I love it! I lost it when he rode the stationary bike through the wall. Chris Farley is by far one of the top ten all-time cast members.

Just watched a Jim Breuer interview where he said Farley spit at the girls on purpose because he overheard they said he was being gross, and i had to come find this clip

I remember the clip. Jim was on Howard Stern but he never said the girls said he was being gross. The reason jim cracked up is because in dress rehearsal he never spat on them. It was ad lib lol. Farley lived to make his cast members break character 😂

@@SatanRomps well, the whole point on an intervention is to open the eyes of the addict. Let them see how it’s affecting those they know and the world around them , but if the addict refuses help and is not willing to accept it or work through their problems, then they may truly be lost.

You can tell his body, his heart, and his lungs were really struggling to perform. I loved Chris, but this is enough evidence to show that a lifestyle full of excess always leads to death.

Love Chris Farley! This is definitely one of his last sketches. I remember the morning of Dec 18, 1997 very well. I got up, sat on the bed, put on my socks and said to my wife, "Chris Farley is going to die soon." Then I went on with my day and later that evening she told me that he did indeed die that day and asked how I knew. I didn't. It was just something I thought. I have no idea why I said that. I guess because he reminded me of Belushi. It was not a premonition or anything weird. Just a thought that I said out loud. Very sad that it actually came true. RIP Farley the Comic Genius.

Tim Meadows is underrated.

You can see this is close to the end. It’s still crazy funny but you can hear it in his voice ☹️ Rest In Peace Chris!!!

He died seven weeks later. This was the end. His health was failing from his food and drug addictions. I remember watching this live and being very scared for him. When the news came of his death it was a shock, but not a surprise if that makes sense.

"if it's one thing he likes it's Hong Kong fuey" Drives into the wall XD

This is the smoothest Saturday Night Live transition I've ever seen before the end of a skit.

One of the Greats. Love watching old clips..laugh just as much.

I have two Matt Foley tee shirts and they both get a lot of compliments

Favorite part lol 4:12. "Take it easy!"

How i wish this man was still alive and making us laugh he was one of the funniest comedian to come oit os SNL R.I.P BIG GUY

Because he was practically on death's door doing this. He died less than two months after this aired. Chris never phoned in his performances or gave less than 110%... but seeing him in this sketch made me really sad: he's so clearly struggling and giving all he can but he has next to nothing left in the tank. They should have cancelled this episode.

5:10 Matt got so excited that he defied physics.

RIP Chris Farley You were so funny my brother, such a rare wonderful talent Till Valhalla

Bravo!!! Pure Genius😂🤣😂 WE MISS YOU FARLEY!!!

Chris was one of the best comedians of all time.

We watch one SNL skit and instead of just admiring the dude for a comedic genius we all are heart surgeons

Whoever says Chris Farley isnt a legend doesnt know comedy. Its still one of those sad stories that were cut way too short. He had alot of potential just like many of those SNL people during that time. Alot of the best comedians started in SNL like Bill Murray, Eddy Murphy, Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Adam Sandler, Will Ferrell, Andy Samberg and even Robert Downey Jr. To some people these guys were legends and Farley was definetly one of them. He was one of a kind

Chris died a frickin' legend and people to this day talk about him. That has to amount to something. I think he brought happiness and laughter to a huge audience not just then but today. He was at the top of his game back then. It's really a shame what happened.

Matt Foley may be the best skit every on SNL Rip CF

We miss you Chris. There’s no one like you

I’m always going to remember those lines, I live in a van down by the river.

He was in a very good shape in the earlier seasons, despite being so big. If you watch the Chippendales skit, you can see how he could dance, he had great command of his body. He was pushing 300 lbs while doing this skit, but he was much smaller in the earlier ones. The difference is obvious.
