The episode with Maria & Luis's wedding was done in this remarkable sort of opera style, where he hear everyone's thoughts set to music before and during the ceremony. While Maria and Luis are getting married, David is thinking, "I used to see her every day of my life/I can't believe today she's another man's wife."

It's a good thing you never saw Willie Dynamite, the movie with Roscoe Orman as a pimp.

That was EGOT Rita Moreno.

BOBU! BOBU! BOBU!

His grandmother's farm, yes. And then Mr. Handford took over Hooper's Store, though they never explained how Mr. Handford's physical appearance changed completely between seasons.

Gina too. But people don't care as much about Gina.

The show's inception was in 1969, not 1971. Also, others have probably mentioned this by now, but Bob, Gordon and Luis were barely on the show anymore anyway. Still, it's odd that they decided not to keep bringing them back once a year or so.

I loved Sphere when I was 15. I'm afraid to re-visit it now.

Oh, so that's why they call it Pokingmon.

I still haven't figured out how to do a gym battle without pretty much dying immediately.

That guy I passed who was wearing a Kirby t-shirt and glancing all around was definitely playing. The elderly couple staring at their phone on a street corner under an umbrella, I'm less sure about.

Hmm. It seems more likely to me that Mohr misremembers how the audience responded to his sketch, as opposed to Lorne Michaels deliberately choosing the version with the less-enthusiastic audience for the syndicated/online episode. But I have heard of live and dress sketches getting mixed and matched before, so

Ah, I didn't realize. I knew the Chicken Lady was a Kids in the Hall thing, but not Melanie. Was Melanie funnier on the other show?

"…the candy that's made by Nutzis!"

It was a rebuilding year.

Man, I hated Norm MacDonald when he was on Weekend Update. He didn't seem to take it "seriously" like Kevin Nealon, and his seemingly apathetic attitude drove me crazy. Now I think he's hilarious.

Anyone who had seen him on Muppets Tonight in 1996 knew he was funny! Which was about 17 people.

I liked Kattan's gibberish-speaking character. It was a considerably more restrained performance than Mango or Mr. Peepers.

Cheri Oteri was all right, but here "SIMMA DOWN NAH!" character was awful. See, she's this obnoxious lady, right? And she tells everyone to "SIMMA DOWN NAH!" And that's it! It felt like something that would have been much more at home on Mad TV.

Nut-riffic! Nut-riffic! Nut-riffic, nut-riffic!
It does nut taste good!
