47 years later and its still funny. I never get the urge to watch old SNL shows but i do SCTV...
Same here. It was ahead of its time and still holds up today.
SNL had a few gems in the old stuff, but not as many as SCTV.
SNL has some great some seasons from the same period as SCTV. They stole some cast from them too.
RIP Joe Flaherty. You were wonderful!!!
A great show that came out when Canada was free.
RIP Flaherty, Candy and Ramis.
You said it bro
😥😥😥😥😥😥😥
It's still free, you loon!
What is it that you would like to do that you feel you are not free to do in Canada?
Is there another country that has the freedoms that you are looking for?
Hmm, I sense right-wing idiocy.
still love this 🙂 RIP Joe Flaherty you will be missed 😞
RIP - watching these clips take me back to my youth…hilarious
This man Bobby Bittman - to be, dare I say it, a great comedian; a singer; a, dare I say it again, great actor; and at least an above average director; not to mention a producer. How is it fair for one man to have so much talent?
And yet he's still overshadowed by his kid brother, Skip...."how's it hangin'?"...Bittman.
"May I say, as a comedian, in all seriousness....."
@@thomasthomas2418 With all that comedy talent, he was also a "serious" actor.
@@fjccommish he was into “HEAVY DRAMMA”… and his acting was …a bit better than Marlon Brando’s, let’s be honest here…idk, maybe if Brando practiced a little more..who knows…
Watching them suck up to each other is just fabulous. I mean that sincerely.
Whoa, the amount of talent SCTV had back then...... Andrea Martin is simply remarkable, and John Candy, Joe Flaherty, etc.... Has any show ever had anywhere near this level of brilliance?
Especially when you consider that in later years they added Rick Moranis and Martin Short.
Fridays comes close.
I would stay up late to catch this. so funny.
Better than SNL
Never missed it
Bittman's transition from standup to the big screen was seamless. Oscar bait indeed.
07:32 "Touch wood" then John Candy's pissed off reaction = pure comedy gold.
RIP Joseph Flaherty
How they gush all over each other. It never gets old or irrelevant.
It still kills me to this day. Comedic genius.
@ 3:00 when Mrs. Prickley comes out and William B. kisses her on the cheek, you can hear Mrs. Prickley say "On the lips, on the lips." The little touches like that are what put SCTV at another level.
She's quite a fangirl, isn't she?
It’s cool how Eugene and Catherine are acting today and look great too btw
SCTV was some of the best satire of its time, and it holds up well today.
SCTV was/is the funniest show EVER on TV....the references, the timing, the writing, the delivery....perfection....SNL...not even close!
"People like Bobby Bittman. People we can all relate to."
Lol.
SCTV is absolutely brilliant
I love Edith Prickley!
God, Levy kneeling behind the table intently watching his own clip. Unbelievable.
Dead Pet Removal!
I was 14 when I first watched SCTV.
So many episodes were filmed at ITV in Edmonton. It was SCTV and Gretzky. Good times. Thanks.
Edmonton is my hometown. No offence but why did they start here, maybe it was a tryout, to see how it would go. Then they headed to Toronto. But really the best sketches were probably first two seasons. Maybe Edmonton first season. Toronto liked. They headed there. But proud it started here. Well original started in Chicago. But this a Canadian version. Canadian s excellent at parody. Great take off on smaltchy kiss ass talk show s. Maybe we see outside what America didn’t see. No offence
@@maryannemelenka9250 now we live in an SCTV skit and no one's laughing. Ah, the good Ole days!
“That’s my name, don’t wear it out!”
Man SCTV was so incredibly funny
He believed there was comedy in everything
Draima! Indeed.
Man I forgot all about this skit. Catherine doing a loose rendition of Joey Heatherton with the extremely bad acting is hilarious. The way she ends her sentences delivering her lines just cracks me up.
Nobody can get Bobby Bittman to take off all that jewelry, not even when he plays a dissimilar character in a movie. 😄
Bobby Bittman should have won an Emmy for that performance. He made the original On The Waterfront look like a high school play.
The chemistry between Bobbie and Lola is electrifying! Brilliant take on a classic!! Definitely Oscar bait
I consider Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara is be a legitimate comedy team - they've been dear friends and done SO MUCH great work together over the past 4 decades. I consider them to be one of the great comedy teams of the last 50 years, their individual talents are formidable but put them together, hilarity will ensue, guaranteed. Two amazingly funny and talented actors/comedians that have demonstrated a wonderful friendship all the while. Role models for any aspiring artists!
@@goldenagenut They would go on to Schitt's Creek
This is the funniest cast of characters ever assembled!
This is my childhood. I’m so thrilled this is finally on you tube. Crazy bunch of Canadians and so freaking talented. Thank you all for your gifts! ❤
I took a snow day and this is my first stop. I'm literally crying real tears of laughter. This cast was Kryptonite!
Genius! Low budget creativity at its best.
I’ve always maintained that no American show could ever touch SCTV!!! I mean cmon…CANDY? SHORTT? LEVY?? THOMAS? MORANIS? MARTIN? Just the tip of the iceberg of Canadian talent. 🇨🇦 Americans are always so full of themselves with most things but we are killing it with comedy!!! 🇨🇦👍🏼
American. I agree. The people who played on SCTV, well, there'll never be another line-up to touch it.
Canada is in America
@@7000fps North America yes
@@michaelmisczuk1188 Canadian show
I miss John Candy. Loved this show back in the day. Comedic genius
Yes John Candy was brilliant in everything he did. Really miss John.
This show was brilliant. I think it still is the most brilliant skits show ever.
This used to come on after SNL and was always funnier.
@@willdenny6953 johns favorite skit was him playing Devine playing Peter Pan.
That entire cast worked so well. They are all underrated IMO.
Candy was in a class by himself.
Bobby Bittman WOW. Eugene Levy is amazing!
"Took over the Station from Mo Greene." 😄😄😄😄😄
I can hardley wait for On the Waterfront 3.
Can we all agree that, phenomenal talent aside, Catherine O'Hara is the hottest comedienne in history?
For a long, long time. Finally hit the wall a few years ago.
Nice stems!
Fuckin' a
Agreed.
Nope
I love how Johnny LaRue had just a seething volcano of rage underneath his affable, ass-kissing surface.
That wasn't Johnny LaRue that was William B. Williams
@KydenBufect He would later walk off the set at an anniversary special because he was bringing the ratings down.
And sure, he was... but he was missed.
Lola's laugh is killer funny
During the whole interview, I bet Johnny LaRue was wondering if the remake had a crane shot.
Lola was brilliant in the On the Waterfront Again clip!
Everything Bobby has accomplished, he learned from his local li-barry.
I remember my 6th grade teacher, Mrs. Briggs, when a girl came up to her...
"Can I go to the li-barry?"
"To the what?"
"To the li-barry."
"We don't have one."
I’m thankful to have these clips, but I’d love to have every SCTV episode with a good, clear picture!
21:30--"I think this is going to be a hot picture--I think we're talking Oscar bait" LOL!!
Remember watching this instead of doing homework?
no, but when i came home from school for lunch, Flintstones were on at 12:00-12:30 & i watched SCTV from 12:30-12:45 then head back to school
Wow! I still remember when my older brother got the Lola Heatherton swimsuit poster. She was every kids dream. ❤❤❤
Lola Heatherton is a take off on the real entertainer Joey Heatherton. Your poster memory is of Farrah Fawcett. 😊
@kvk1960 I grew up in Melonville and after seeing On The Waterfront, Again at the LaRue Double Screen Palace Cinema, I know which poster my brother had. Hubba Hubba.
When SCTV was inducted into The Television Museum in 1986, this episode right here was shown at the induction ceremony.
Lola Heathen a sensation! LOL!!
This was before Rick Moranis joined the cast. Just crazy, loopy stuff. Back in the day Group W Cable (Westinghouse) in Seattle carried a few Canadian stations out of Vancouver and Victoria B.C.. It was a blast to see all this crazy comedic content. Who knew how huge they would all get.
Andrea Martin told her son & his friends that Sammy Maudlin was based on Sammy Davis jr. & his talk show, & it blew their minds haha
I think it was in Dave Thomas book too. Sammy Davis would just compliment everyone
Oh yeah. I'd heard that they both had a "William B. Williams" as a co-host.
Of course, in the SCTV timeline, they went on for years, while Sammy and Company only had 2 seasons.
I'd rather watch old sctv on TH-cam than any new SNL shows.
I'd rather watch old SCTV scenes on TH-cam than any old Monty Python's any day of the week.
Amen !
And we all know why, because you're a neocon duncebucket who thinks that _Saturday Night Live's_ too 'liberal'.
Anything is better than unfunny woke garbage 😮
@@Kanezilla66 Interesting. Like what are some unfunny woke garbage stuff you've come across?
SCtV helped me make it thru university. So many funny skits
SCTV KICKED SNL ASS ALL DAY LONG!!
OMG this stuff was priceless.
Good actors are like a bowl of rice. We all stick together!
The Sammy Maulin Show, now that was a talk show!
I wish it was 1981 again. Life was good.
Just realized that Andrea is actually channeling studio costume queen Edith Head.
- Now we know where Lauren Boebert got her style from.
Ummm, no. She's channeling Evelyn Wood, of Evelyn Wood's Speed Reading Course. Ubiquitous commercials in the 70s.
I love Lola
danny's asian character's are always tastefully done.
The characterizations over the top acting! Hilarious. SCTV IMHO blew away SNL. I was a teenager in those days. Appreciate epi
the best of all the sctv bits . . .Sammy Maudlin!
Amen, bro!
and actually not joined in progress for once! I was amazed lol
😂lol..11:33 Bobby is all into himself like he can't believe how great he is..😅 Eugene Levy is so funny,my favourite comedic actor and all seriousness..lol..sctv is the best.👍🏻
This is downright hilarious
oh no terry! TER~REEEEEE!
The Maudlin show was a classic case study in ‘sycophantic sucking up.’
I hope Brando saw this.
"Mr ARTFORM!"..
SCTV>SNL
Those outfits, OMG.
Bobby is a seriously funny guy, seriously
As a youtube commenter, in all seriousness, he's the greatest entertainer I have ever seen.
You're talking Bobby Bittman the dramatic actor right?
@@breakfastsurreal5650 yes that multitalented Bobby Bittman
I love how these guys brown nose each other on give each other constant accolades on Sammy Maudlin.
They are all terrific, Joe Flaherty always good too, he sts up a lot of the comedy. They are so much funnier than SNL without the dollars
He'e so stunningly beautiful.
This takes me back many years and brings back many fond memories. This show was a classic of its time. Too bad most of you Americans never saw this show and will never be aware that it even existed. Your loss. There will never be a show like this again and will never be a cast as great as this again. We, who got to see this, are indeed privileged as a show like this will never be produced again and a cast this great will never be assembled again. RIP Joe Flaherty and John Candy.
"I want to bear all your CHILDREN, HA HA HA HA"!
Dave THOMAS’ Lin Ye tang is the basis of my own personal imitation of an Asian. I get many laughs from friends and coworkers and always give props to Mr. Thomas. Brilliant
Speed Eating! I remember when I was a kid they'd run these cheesy speed reading ads. This spoof is hilarious!
I an a gradual of the Evelyn Wood sped redding method.
@@brucegilbert7243nicely done!
I love Edith. She wrecks my kitchen!
Sammy Maudlin show!!!.... priceless!!!
Still ahead of their time.
The mutual appreciation hour.
21:06 lol "like a big bowl of steamed rice"
A great send up of Joey Heatherton.
The worst SCTV skit is 10x better than the best SNL segment
And the worst SCTV skit is also 10 times better than the best Monty Python segment, too.
Without a doubt.
@@Jim_Lthey're ALL fantastic in their own right! I remember watching SCTV after SNL was over in my best friends' room on their little portable TV set. And to make it even better, The Carol Burnett Show came on at 10 pm, to start the great Saturday night line up! I could be wrong on the timeline, but the way I remember it, all three of these shows came on on Saturday nights. And PBS played Monty Python reruns too, not sure if it was Saturdays or not... but if TV networks still broadcast shows that we're half as good, I might still tune in!
@@klmullins65 I don't remember The Carol Burnett Show in the early '80s. I loved that show, but it would have been circa 1975 to 1978 for me. I checked Wiki, and sure enough, the show ended after 11 seasons in 1978. I'm guessing you were probably catching reruns, if you were watching in the '80s.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the SCTV we've all come to know was picked up by NBC in 1981. If you were catching the show earlier, back in the mid-'70s, then you are one lucky dawg. I never saw those.
I do remember those first few seasons of SNL, which first aired in 1975. I don't know about you, but I've caught clips of some of those shows on TH-cam now that I'm an adult, and they are painfully unfunny, for the most part. A few laughs here and there, but yeah, humor that hasn't aged well at all.
@@Jim_L this would’ve been in the late 1970s. SCTV was played at 1 am after SNL went off. It was probably syndicated at the time, and the air time was up to the local station to decide.
The old SNLs usually depended on who was hosting that week …Steve Martin, Buck Henry, and any of the Monty Pythons members were always hilarious. I think the late 80s-early 90s was the best SNL era (Phil Hartman, Jan Hooks, John Lovitz, Victoria Jackson, etc)
Bitman. the king of flash, the ego of the century, and hairstyle pioneer.
"I've just been waiting for the right vehicle....."
How about a cab?
Touch wood
Unbelievable, comedy that you could NOT do today, close to 40 years later.....
Trevor Roget... Yours is the math that’s off. This came out in 1979.
@@tkdean3934 Roman Numerals at the end, 1984.
This show was on in my city AFTER SNL. Both great back then.
7:10 Bobby Bitman "How are ya!" 😂
Absolutely hilarious
Brilliant
Andrea, best mother Teresa ever🌹
Now I know where they got the Simpson’s clown from.
SCTV was way ahead of its time, the scene with John Candy saying they have developed a sponge as a toy, they are now selling a stick to kids with lights on it as if that's really a toy and put a popular fantasy book and movie franchise name on it, is genius, they can sell poop and put a popular entertainers name on it...
Those were the days!!😆
7:52. Word is you are brilliant in it Bobby. Sammy, I heard that too
So very good with their energetic suckholing and mutual ego-boosting. Merv Griffin would approve. I also love Sammy Maudlin's over-the-top thigh-slapping!
"Good acting doesn't have to take a back seat to race, creed or color."
I wish more people these days would realize that.
Whether you're black, white, Jewish or Hungarian.
It is illegal in Winnipeg, Manitoba to ride up and down the aisle of a city bus on a unicycle.
Even if you're Hungarian.
A dangerous idea in this day and age.
They look like thy are having fun
Eugene Levy ...big star 🌟 🤩 ...excellent impression as actor 😊
Another great show. That looked like the Firehouse from Ghostbusters at the end there.
Bittman is the best.
"HOW ARE YA'!"
