Probably Jimmy Fallon. The one skit I recall that was so creepy wrong and really pushed the edge was Canteen Boy with Alec Baldwin. As for my favorite, can't say I have one other than just Weekend Update generally depending on how on point they are at any given time.
Jane Curtin and Dan Ackroid - priceless - "Jane, you ignorant slut"
That was before my time. I am sort of a post-Wayne' World era viewer, though I really don't watch it that often anymore since Tina Fey left.
Phil Hartman doing Sinatra. I loved the duets. :lol:
I don't know if they're on youtube or elsewhere, but if you get to see Jane and Dan go at it on Weekend Update and their Point/Counter Point, it's awesome - I think it was a send-up on Crossfire, but it had a life of it's own.
I've seen some of the older stuff here and there on anniversary special, online, and the like. I am a big fan of Steve Martin and went back for some of his stuff. I think he is a genius, but a friend of mine who does a bunch of celebrity interviews says that Steve Martin's reputation as being the world's biggest a-hole is understated--he is the universe's biggest a-hole off camera apparently.
I have not watched SNL in ages, but when I saw this thread the first thing that came to mind was Eddie Murphy as Gumby, immediately followed by recalling Buckwheat and "Wookin Pa Nub (in all the wrong places)"
Anything Mr Bill.
Martin's "Wild and Crazy Guys" with Ackroid were very funny too - his King Tut was great too.

Edit: ohh of course, how can I forget.. the best (of the good old days) was John Belushi
Lily Tomlin as the switchboard operator was hilarious! "One ringy dingy,..." :thumbs:
Good evening, CJ. :2wave:
Anything Mr Bill.
Responding to another thread brought this to mind.
My favorite was Gilda Radner, God rest her soul, and my favorite skit of hers was "Door-to-Door Jaws".
Bring back some memories by telling us what your favorite SNL skits and personalities are/were.
Thanks for that. My wife is looking at me like I am crazy. LOL.
