You left out something re: the "Samurai Stockbroker" sketch. Yes, Buck Henry wore a bandage for the rest of the show. And, gradually, so did everyone else, in order to blend in. By the closing scene, everybody was bandaged up.

That Debbie Downer sketch is legendary. He's wiping his tears with pancakes!!

"I can't have children" would likely never be funny but OMG, watching her break character, I was holding it in, then just couldn't, i just burst out laughing. Here in the dark, "You Tubing," to fall asleep. I can't explain it but I woke up my man. 😸🙆‍♀️

That Debbie Downer will always be the funniest to me lolol

These moments are what make the show magical & beautiful -- It shows that even though Saturday Night "Live" these days is scripted, planned, & chereographed down to the slightest detail, things can still go wrong

Kate‘s break a couple weeks ago on Weekend Update was so good that Collin asked Kate, not the character she was playing, if she was ok

SNL has been a springboard for some amazing, extremely talented and absolutely hilarious people. We have all, had the privilege of watching them grow and sadly move on. Thankfully a lot of them, have moved on to wonderful successful careers. Thanks for the memories and whatever is yet to come! 💜

When Tracy Morgan stuck his finger up Bill Haders nose in one of the scared straight episodes, I don't think anyone could have not broke.

What I love about these moments is that they had worked just a few hours before during dress rehearsal.

"Look at your father boy!" Frickin Hader!! 😂🤣 Especially as the old man! 😂🤣 & who doesn't love Stefan!? 😂🤣 I still miss Farley 😔

I always thought that most skits were made just to test the limits of the actors and see how long til they broke

Missing the bird didn't ruin the Career Day sketch, if anything, it made it funnier. One of my favorite sketches, it's an instant classic 🤣🤣🤣

actor's breaking character is one of my favorite things. we've all had that moment where we don't know how much more we can take before busting out laughing

I do think the show is funnier when character is broken or something goes off script. It adds to the comedy and you remember even these actors are still human and can laugh at mistakes.

They knew him much better and said he’d entertain at assemblies before things got started. As a freshman, he was the guy who could make everyone laugh, a very quick wit. When he died, it hit them pretty hard. None of them had been surprised when he made it to SNL. I can’t remember if he did the talent show his freshman year or not. I’d have to check my yearbook.

At 12:42, right after Frankenstein stands up and yells "Fire, bad!" he went behind the casts' chairs and crashed through the wall and went off set, but the scene continued.
