You gotta love how every great comedian has their own style and contributes their own trademark to comedy. Will's style I can never get enough of, it was so random and off kilter and you never knew what he was going to say. Many may not agree with me but to me he's a comedic genius.

Will is a comic genius. He can make any celeb laugh.

"...Also, if we didn't dream, our brains would devour themselves in madness and paranoia...the Viet Cong knew that. That's why they used sleep deprivation as a form of torture." If Will just improv'd that...that's flippin epic.

Ferrell should to a space parody as harry carey. A feature film trilogy.

The late 90s were absolutely a golden age for SNL.

Joan Allen is trying so hard not to laugh during this. I'm impressed with how well she kept it together.

I taped this when it was live, and then watched it many times. This was a good episode. Back when you could rely on SNL to give you an hour and a half of weekly entertainment. I gave up watching full episodes around 2006. When I remember to check for sketches from new episodes on KZread, I only play about a quarter of them, and only about ten percent of the ones I play do I watch all the way to the end. For me the heyday was about 1998-2002, though there have been good sketches and performers since then.

yup...that impression is just as funny as I remember. Most things from my early teens haven't held up as well. Go Will! Cubs win!

“It’s a simple question.....do you wanna go to mars with a dead guy and a sandwich”?? Lmao!!
