      I love the blues brothers and honestly had no clue it was a direct spin off of NSL. It's one of my favourite movies and I grew up watching it all the time. I'll never forget the first time my dad put it on warning me it's full of swearing.
      I expected some boring drama movie because usually if my parents put on a movie just for them it was lame at that age (I was 8.) I was fucking blown away, and it is even better as an adult. Classic movie and wish more people my age knew it.

      I might be wrong, but I remember in the snl oral history, I think Lorne Michaels mentioned that nobody liked the idea for a movie, but nobody could stop Julia Sweeney from making it because she owned the character. It is the only snl movie that isn't produced by universal or paramount and the only one where Lorne Michaels is not credited as a producer

      I don't even consider those to be sketches. Stefon is a side piece for the Weekend Update portion of SNL. In my opinion, they should do away with all of the interviews. I never consider them funny. It's possible they were in the '70s and '80s.

    I'm a huge Blues Brother fan. HUGE.
    Your comment about waiting for a punchline is funny because it just shows how much SNL has changed. If you watch the original season, SNL wasn't strictly a comedy series. It was a variety show. We still see remnants of this with the musical guests, but the Blues brothers weren't the only more serious act to go on. SNL also offered George Carlin the opportunity to host full time, they were very much experimental in the old days. From the perspective of someone who is familiar with SNL looking back I can totally see why you would be expecting a joke or something, but watching it at the time we didn't really know what to expect. The show was so fun and weird and experimental back then, and they eventually just settled into sketch comedy

      I think the comedic aspect about the Blues Brothers movie was the deadpan delivery. The most ridiculous crap would happen and they’d just keep moving on as if it wasn’t a surprise.

    You briefly showed Ted Lasso at the end when talking about just the cast members going on to other projects, but what is interesting is that the character of Ted Lasso is also based on a sketch just not an SNL one. A few years ago Jason Sudeikis did a sketch for NBC, who were promoting soccer games coming to their platform. It was like a 7 minute sketch featuring this new character called Ted Lasso. In fact, a few of the jokes from that sketch also made their way into the TV show.

    I LOVE Blues Brothers! I was first introduced to that movie in 2006-- as well as 'Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure'-- when I was in contact isolation from illness. During that time my depression was at its worst, as I was also fighting to stay alive. Friends and family made a point to find as many comedies as they could for me, just to get me to laugh, and 'Blues Brothers' was one that reallt stuck with me. The music was great, the premise of having them working to save the orphanage was perfect for essentially a road trip film. And Cab Calloway was in it! I grew up with vhs tapes of Fleischer Studios cartoons, and 'Minnie the Moocher' was one of my favorites on it. So that was a lovely surprise.
    Point being: 10/10 would recommend.

    The Plot of the Night of The Roxbury is two brothers who love to party learn how to grow up ever so slightly while keeping true to themselves along the way. And also Emilio Estevez is there! It’s actually iconic for the soundtrack, the cast, and the costumes always tickle me pink. But that’s someone who grew up with this, Austin Powers, and Zoolander. So I love that era :)

    Speaking as someone who grew up in the Chicago suburbs in the 1980s, the Blues Brothers was absolutely a movie everyone had seen. It's still very well-regarded around these parts, as it was one of the first films really shot in (and showing off) Chicago. It's one of those films people would quote and everyone would pick up on it (especially, "It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of glass, a half-pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."
    The backup band was a legimatiely solid band, too. Lead guitarist Steve Cropper and bassist Donald "Duck" Dunn played on a bunch of '60s soul classics (including Soul Man, which you refer to in the video). The Blues Brothers band was basically a bunch of ace session musicians who in the 1970s formed a band that became the SNL band (under Paul Schaffer), and then became the Blues Brothers Band (just without Paul Schaffer).

I remember my friends went to see it without me (I was pissed) and they said I was the superstar chic (something I would be honored to have the title of now because I LOVE that actress) but I was very insulted back then. My "friends" were asshole bullies. Middle schoolers period are assholes. It came out in either 6th or 7th grade..I forget which year it was. I block a lot of that time out! Edit: ohhh..you meant the show 😂 my bad, I was still at the beginning and didn't even think about the show!

    Also, I had no idea how USA looked like back then, but in my mind it was just musicians singing on the streets and car chases, so it seemed pretty fun as a kid, and I was begging my family to bring me to Chicago!

      Yeah, it does feel like a bygone era now…. Damn, that makes me feel old 😂 Too much media available now for anything to be so uniformly culturally significant. Kinda miss that, the nostalgia is great though.
      Back in my day (walking to school, in the snow, uphill both ways, etc), we had NBC, ABC, CBS (Fox had a come up with Married w/ Children and BH90210), and super basic cable, so we were all watching the same things. Makes for great nostalgic moments for us elder millennials, but it’s a rarity these days… I’d say GoT came close, kind of The Soprano’s level, everyone’s talking about it the day after. I think having whole season drop at once also makes a difference, it’s 1 time hype vs. 10 weeks of hype. Episodic dropped shows just take more space in our memories, individually and collectively.
      And before that, they legit had 3 channels that just shut off at like 10pm, at least I had reruns of Roseanne and Night Court to keep me up, lol.

That doesn’t happen at all today with basically any TV show, because of the sheer quantity of shows out there to watch.

Public access television was a cultural vein, giving people the ability to create their own platforms the way TH-cam does today. On top of that, the cable and network television boom at the end of the 1980s saw a flood of tv shows just to see what would stick. So these SNL sketches about someone with a tv show were relatable.

    If you've never heard anyone talk about "The Blues Brothers" you've never been to Chicago. Chicago LOVES the Blues Brothers. It's part of the fabric of the city. You could walk into any restaurant in Chicago and pretend to order 5 whole fried chickens and a coke and they'd more than likely get the reference.

    I will say, Coneheads includes the high-key best version of Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You by Morten Harket (the lead singer of A-Ha)

    I honestly never knew that Blues Brothers was based off SNL. I just know that my parents were big fans of it and made me watch the movie.

    I know in my heart of hearts that MacGruber isn't a good movie, but the gag where he writes down the license plate of someone who was a dick and later someone finds his notebook and sees he's been disturbingly obsessed with it, gets me every time

    I think with the blues brothers it’s iconic because it’s a watchable musical, the characters are iconic, the music is good and the people playing the characters were such great casting. I don’t know how but the blues brothers became a Christmas movie for my family. It’s such a good movie and they incorporated humour into the movie. Now blues brothers 2 was a choice, and that’s all I’ll say. It was a choice
