What bothers me most about this basic grammar mistake is that it was included in a sketch whose main purpose is to mock a large segment of the population (conservatives in general and Fox News people in particular) for being dumb. I have lost a lot of respect for SNL, to be quite honest.

Weiner himself, in the commentary track for "Flight One," cited "Joan's subtle racism" as among the factors at play in her conversation with Sheila. During her later confrontation with Paul, Jon Hamm (who's also on the commentary track) says something like, "There's truth to what both of them are saying," to which

The lumbering walk with outstretched arms also found its way into zombie iconography. Notice in the original Dawn of the Dead how some of the zombie extras are walking that way (and appearing to have a little too much fun doing so), while others aren't.

It did seem to elicit genuine laughter from the audience…

Someone in the audience screams "CLOCKWORK!" toward the beginning of the Malcolm McDowell monologue in the 1980-81 season. He looks momentarily thrown by it but quickly recovers.

I just thought it was nice to see he was still on good terms with the show and still able to do comedy sketches (his actual lines readings were fine), as he has appeared somewhat out of touch with reality in recent interviews, etc. Was also happy to see Chevy back on the show and not in completely bad form.

Would have preferred if they left out the line about how "the stereotype really is true; come to think of it I showed up 20 minutes late for work today." Just show the Asian tourists taking pictures without explaining it or apologizing for it by way of ironic comment meant to a) let younger viewers know this a

I can tell you the most incongruous: Milton Berle/Ornette Coleman in Season Four. Unfortunately Ornette performed only one piece, but the moment leading into it is perhaps the most jarring in SNL history. Berle does a very hacky and politically incorrect comedy bit where he introduces his "writers" (I think they all

Surprised that Track of the Cat has garnered no mention here. It is a self-consciously artistic mid-50s Western very much in the "dark psychological" bag outlined in the first paragraph above… and it stars both Robert Mitchum and Teresa Wright (as brother and sister!). It's in color, so not really a noir-Western, but
