    Congratulations!
    You're the only video of the original WSW I could find in a search among all the episodes of Bloomberg's take on the show! D:
    (I wonder what other PBS shows SNL has parodied. Their parody of PBS's 1984 closing logo, with a "metallic" P-Head and text, floats around here, but not whatever was attached to it.)
    The fact that I'm watching this in 2023 (and the video was uploaded in 2013) makes Future Man funnier.

      There's one I can think of off the top of my head from the Eddie Murphy years. They did a parody of what PBS were doing with Dick Cavett in 1983. It's not a full on parody of his show, but they made it like he was hosting a gameshow for intellectuals called "I'll be the judge of that." Rick Moranis was playing him (his Cavett was flawless,) and Eddie Murphy did Tyrone Green, genius sketch. The late 80's cast also did some skits based on PBS too.

    The real Louis Rukeiser was a fabulous commentator, intelligent and endowed with a fantastic command of the issues and a fine sense of humour.
    Saturday Night Live didn't even come close to his sense of humour.
    He is deeply missed

      @@VideoAmericanStyle , I’m more of a Chevy/Dennis/Norm guy but I will say that the current Update is often the only watchable part of the current SNL. It’s still too reliant on gimmicky commentaries but you can see the evidence of bright people at work. But the cold openings are too top heavy with that lazy, meta-referential writing style that SNL has used as a crutch for the last twenty-five years. The current cast just isn’t talented enough to pull that stuff off effectively anymore. Just my useless ¢0.02.

    On the October 24, 1987 episode of Saturday Night Live, Sean Penn portrayed Louis Rukeyser in the "Wall Street Week" skit, who welcomes guests, such as a suicidal former Wall Street whiz kid, nervous ruined investors, and Future Man. Rukeyser's panelists were Tony Stepanich, Colin Hutchinson, Jane Wickham, and Steven Babcock. The skit was funded by Ballhorne Investment, High-Risk Securities, and The Diversified Group.

      Yes, Black Monday was October 19, 1987, and this SNL aired the following Saturday, Oct 24, 1987.
      It is worth watching the real Wall Street Week of that week, which aired on October 23, 1987. Louis Rukeyser's opening monologue was brilliant. He was calm, reassuring and very grounded as he dealt with the week's financial calamities by gently reminding his viewers about life's real priorities, and that this, too, will eventually pass. The opening of that episode should be required viewing for every aspiring journalist - a model of professionalism, integrity and leadership that is sorely lacking in the press corps these days.
      "Okay, let's start with what's really important tonight. It's just your money, not your life. Everybody who really loved you a week ago still loves you tonight. And that's a heck of a lot more important than the numbers on a brokerage statement. The robins will sing, the crocus will bloom. Babies will gurgle and puppies will curl up in your lap and drift happily to sleep even when the stock market goes temporarily insane..."
      RIP Louis Rukeyser, you were a true gem, and you are dearly missed.
