    One of my favorite things from early SNL is how they start one of their go-to sketches with something completely unrelated, and even if you should see what's coming, it's quick enough that you it doesn't necessarily click before the big entrance. This one gets me in such a big way.

    That fourth-wall break starting in the middle of this sketch is not only brilliant, but also SO convincing. I seriously thought this was a real mistake that happened, since this is a live show after all, but I relaxed when they showed the director and it got a little sillier from there. The cast of today would NEVER be able to pull off this stunt.

At this time, the tv show, 2020, was doing really sensationalistic programs on Killer Ants and Killer Bees coming into America from South America and Mexico so these Saturday Night skits about things like that were relevant and hilarious. It's SO great to see these again after all of these years. Thank you!!!

      @punchmo 4 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      aif Sandy Duncan was blind one one eye, she had a glass eye. A Viewmaster was a toy you looked through like binoculars to see an image on a disc. Without both eyes the image isn’t clear.

      @MommyOfZoeAndLiam 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Sandy Duncan didn't have a glass eye. She was blind in one eye after surgery to remove a brain tumor near the optic nerve, but her left eye still tracked with her right eye due to muscle memory.
      However, you are correct that being blind in one eye would not be great for using a view master.

      Neil Levy and Tom Schiller are the background bees playing guitar. You can see them behind Chevy at 5:29. Levy was a production assistant, Schiller a writer. Schiller is shorter and looks a little like Simon. He directed some short films on SNL, including the one where Belushi dances in the graveyard.

      @@sillygoose635 I get it. Humor has changed really. I mean Jerry Lewis was hillarious when I was a kid. Not so much now. I found this skit very funny in such a bizzare way when I was a teen. Why? Because it was so different. One has to realize this deconstructive humor was brand new then. And very bizzare to see on TV. It was so new in fact that the drunk engineer building up and the camera "malfunction" was thought to be really happening. I know, I know, weve seen so much now that its hard to imagine anyone would think it real and not part of the skit. Then when we realized pretty quickly that it was part of the skit the punchline was on us. The slow build laugh.
      Hard to describe. And one doesnt have to think its funny now. Its old school now. But at least understand that it was very creative this deconstructive type comedy and much of what one sees and relates to now has its roots in this type skit.
      It was completely different than anything else of its time. Very creative and interesting. If only SNL could be as creative with a new type of comedy and the chemistry of this first cast now.

    Back in the day, when SNL was a must see show, every week, I sewed about 8-10 Killer Bee costumes, I made the bandelar’s with empty shotgun shells, I got toy machine guns & off to the Halloween party at our local nightclub, where SNL played on a screen behind the bar, every club played SNL every Saturday night. The club was packed so we had to wait a few minutes for someone to leave, then the doorman said let the Killer Bees come forward, they have the best costumes so they’re getting in first, lol 😂 ahh to be that young again.

Mexican Federales eventually found their car in Monterrey, turned over and burned. It wasn't a very funny situation. This skit brought back some bitter memories.
