@@StamfordBridge I think Andrea Martin and Catherine O'Hara were far more talented and versatile with their impressions than any of the actresses on SNL. They truly made SCTV one of the best comedy shows of all time.
Matthew Gray I wouldn’t be so quick to dismiss the talents of, say, Gilda Radner or Kate McKinnon, but of course I agree with your praise of those two.
What can one say? The whole thing is sheer genius. From the hand-drawn sign and Candy's hair to Martin's outfit and cadence to the lighting and cinematography, this is satire in its most perfect form. I do not believe that many people today are aware of the glory years of SCTV, and its brilliance compared with much of contemporary television.
Agree 100%. The writing! Just brilliant, every word was measured and perfect. The character acting, the vocal intonation. Everything just perfection, like you say. Even the flash of light before the blow up is brilliant and perfect.
@Craig Laycox no dude. Especially. I never realized before this how well endowed she was. I always thought Catherine O'Hara was the stacked one on SCTV
Yes , I was watching the movie Club Paradise the other day , and the funniest moments are the ones with Andrea Martin in them. She really added a lot to that film .
I enjoy her more as I get older. My boyfriend loved CO'Hara cause she was blond and cute. AMartin has perfect timing, like CH is a chameleon, intelligent and wacky but unlike CH, AM can project a sensitive vulnerability (thinking of Mojo). Both are top-notch.
Andrea Martin has never left my memory, I used to watch this on my local channel when I was a kid. I always looked forward to the laughter she gave me.
The actors were fabulous Candy's and Flaherty's farm boy impressions were hilarious and Martin's impression of Bernadette Peters was also great but the writers were fantastic. So many different folks that were lampooned. The best.
That was a most incredible Peters impersonation! Had I watched this from the beginning with my eyes closed, I would've thought it really was here. Well done, Andrea! SCTV was the best.
Andrea’s impression of Bernadette is hilarious. The staring, the hair, the voice, the fake big bust too. Andrea is actually doing her from “The Jerk” and “Pennies from Heaven”. HA! 🤣
Andrea pulled off a great Bernadet Peters! The whole concept of these sketches, two farmers on tv early in the morning, blowing up Hollywood celebrity guests - genius.
Yep. That one definitely came from left field. Makes me laugh just thinking about it. If you haven't seen Andrea Martin' in the Ted & Edna Boil Organ Emporium sketches, then there are at least a couple here you should check out. Pure genius!
I don't think interview shows were ever really the same after these skits, they humorously deconstructed them so completely they could never find their way back to the more innocent days when the image and the person of the celebrity were assumed to match. Brilliant.
(One moment in time, three comedic geniuses.) I never cease to marvel at the way SCTV could take two seemingly-unrelated things (at the time, Siskel and Ebert-style movie review shows; and the kind of "farm report" shows that started out the broadcast day for a lot of local TV stations), and turn them into one high-concept comedic gem. (They did something equally clever with the promo for one of the "network's" new shows, "The Benny Hill Street Blues.") Joe Flaherty, Andrea Martin, and John Candy (RIP).
Yes. The mash-up stuff was always genius comedy. Get your hands on the SCTV Christmas Party show. Could be my mostest favoritest thing in the universe. Liberace and Elton John playing dueling Christmas Carols is inspired. And don't get me started on the Neil Simon play inside the Sammy Maudlin Show.
I do not recall The Tubes being blown up, but the group appeared on Gil Fisher's show "The Fishin' Musician, with John Candy in the role of Gil. The clips from that show can also be found on You Tube.
This one had me in stitches because it perfectly captured how truly nauseating it was to watch Bernadette Peters in a movie. If you don't believe me, just try watching "Heartbeeps".
I think I've seen every episode of SCTV. The most cutting edge comedy on t.v. at the time, my brother and I really enjoyed this channel. Along with Monty Python of course.
Damn, that's a dead-on impression of Peters! The voice, the hair, the spaghetti-strap gown showcasing the big boobs lol. I miss this show so much, after all of these years SCTV is still funnier than most of the junk on TV today.
I'd honestly would have took Andrea Martin on a date back in the 80's. She's got a charming, bubbly persona like Joyce DeWitt (Janet) from Three's Company.
Lol now I’m thinking of Andrea and Bernadette both being on The Good Fight 😂 pretty sure they didn’t have any scenes together but you wonder if this has ever come up between them
Andrea Martin doesn't get enough love. Genius comedic actress.
Love. But not Bernadette. She sorta knew what she was
I'm with you!!!!!!
That’s such a good Bernadette impression!
She and Catherine were flipping uncanny in their impressions - and they hardly ever seemed mean. (I know that sounds "snowflake"... What can I say?)
For a second I wondered if it was she.

Love them actors!!!!!!!!
They got to play *so* many characters, too. The ones who got into movies got quickly pigeonholed into a single character.
WOW! I don't recall seeing this one but that Bernadette Peter's impression was amazing! I don't think I appreciated Andrea's talent back then.
……I don’t think I appreciated Andrea’s boobs back then !😊
*Peters No apostrophe needed
Andrea Martin becomes her characters so well, you don't often get to see how hot she really was. In her 70s now, she is still hot.
SCTV impersonations are second to none.
Fabulous Bernadette Peters impression. Andrea Martin is so versatile. And never have I enjoyed a celebrity blow-up more.
"Cute and vulnerable--in a deliberate sorta way"!! Too funny!
Man -- even Canadians, the nicest people in the world, are capable of twisting the knife occasionally.
@@tomh.2405 🤭😉😂🍁👍Eh? lol!🍴
I love the premise that the celebrities and hosts all know they're going to blow up. "Before you blow up, would you favor us with a song?" 🤣🤣
Andrea Martin is so talented.
On the February 18, 1983, episode of SCTV 📺 NETWORK, of course, Daniel, in which she impersonated Bernadette Peters.
She's cute too.
@@alexd0617 Who? Bernadette Peters?
@@alexd0617 Well?
@@alexd0617 I'm waiting.
Andrea Martin was so underrated.

Saw this the night it originally aired! God I miss this show!
William X. Lee i did too. NBC late night
that is one super bit of performance from Ms. Martin.
Andrea Martin always has a sinister, dark edge to each of her impressions
That's right! I was getting a similar vibe but you nailed it! Thank you.
Superb observation.
@Debunk Flat Earth Nah. Even Edna Boyle is creepy.
@@tomjones8610 Even Perrini Scelroso is dark!!
@@MrTimrodner ...and suspiciously swarthy
The looks on their faces while she's singing..priceless.
Andrea Martin, John Candy and Joe Flaherty are all brilliant in this!
"Why don't you think of it this way... I'm goin' out there a little Miss Nobody, but I'm comin' back STAR!"
"Why don't you just sing a song?"
😂😆😂😆😂😆
I love Andrea Martin
She did such a great job, it made me appreciate Bernadette Peters a lot, as well. (Andrea & Catherine O'Hara are geniuses. Truly.)
"She blowed up real good." Billy Sol Hurok's unforgettable sign off.
LOVE SCTV. Having a good time revisiting the ol' greats.
RIP Big Jim McBob & Billy Sol Hurok. 😢😢😢

when SCTV was the comedy king!! thanks for posting!
R.i.P. Joe Flarerty (oh and John Candy).
Dear God! I grew up in Detroit and we'd see SCTV from Canada. Man miss all those talents!
better than SNL
I’m rewatching it all and it’s eternally funny.
Just a few hours from the 313 in 🇨🇦.
This less than four minute clip had more laughs than the entire 1981-85 Saturday Night Live stretch.
+powergirl901 u mean the last 10 years of SNL
That’s for sure
Greatness
So true! SNL was pretty funny in the beginning, but nothing they ever did was close to this comedy genius.
wrong
Classic Flaherty
0:22 - "Well look. We could just sit here chewing the fat all night but I ain't a gunna."
- Big Jim McBob
Me neither!!!
That was a most incredible Peters impersonation! Had I watched this from the beginning with my eyes closed, I would've thought it really was here. Well done, Andrea!
SCTV was the best.
She blowed up with efficacious skill and aplomb.
Any blowin' up of pretentious celebrities is bound to be deserved. SCTV was absolutely the best.
They shoulda blowed up Clint Eastwood
@@87dramarama Can't..Clint is invulnerable...
This still makes me howl until it hurts. Some of the funniest sketches ever made...
That outfit leaves naughty thoughts in your head.
Yes...yes it does
Not just yer head....
Is there a double entendre in that statement?
Thought it was just me! Andrea Martin lookin like a snack here.
In a attractive kinda way...
Yah definitely not Edith Prickley😂
My god! I've never seen an impression that good! I seriously thought that was her for a minute!
Andrea’s impression of Bernadette is hilarious. The staring, the hair, the voice, the fake big bust too. Andrea is actually doing her from “The Jerk” and “Pennies from Heaven”. HA! 🤣
Great clip! Haven’t seen this in years. Andrea Martin is a brilliant performer!
SCTV WAS HILARIOUS!! BLOWED EM UP REAL GOOD!!
Andrea pulled off a great Bernadet Peters!
The whole concept of these sketches, two farmers on tv early in the morning, blowing up Hollywood celebrity guests - genius.
Andrea Martin's impression was spot-on. The women on SCTV were remarkable. Great ensemble cast.
Brilliant. Often when I am leaving the house I tell my wife, "I am going out a nobody, but I'm coming back a STAARRRR!
😂😂😂😂
For the longest time I thought that really was Bernadette Peters lol.
I'm still not sure if it is or not. Martin is great.

Don't forget the Sammy Maudlin shows, with Bobby Beekman
Aw man! I want to see the Osmond family get blowed up real good.
(One moment in time, three comedic geniuses.)

If SCTV were on today I’d like to see this segment blow up “ rappers”.
"She blowed up!" "Yeah, she blowed up real good!" 😂
I'm going out there a little miss nobody, but I'm comin back a STARR!!
I don't know what just happened, but I loved it!
How hysterical. I loved that show!
Didn't they blow up the band The Tubes on an episode? I bet they blowed up real good!
I do not recall The Tubes being blown up, but the group appeared on Gil Fisher's show "The Fishin' Musician, with John Candy in the role of Gil. The clips from that show can also be found on You Tube.
Boy she nails it. The voice is just perfect
I think they're store-bought, in a "can't stop staring" kind of way.
Soooo many sctv memories. This is Martin's best impersonation. I am unable to find a clip of her doing Joan Baez--let me know if you find it anywhere.
I thought Andrea Martin was attractive looking in this show
In an interview, just this week, she said when she watches this clip she can't take her eyes of her boobs. She was pregnant at the time.
Me to
@@triscat So the solution is to stay pregnant because those honey jugs were rockin'.
A gauzy filter doesn't hurt
This was a real good one cuz you're never quite sure when it's going to happen. Kinda like a jack-in-the-box.
There has never been anything else like "Farm Film Celebrity Blow-Up." There just hasn't.
Man, can you believe that that’s Perini Scleroso without her overcoat and headscarf?
Seeing John Candy, brings a smile to my face
Blowed er up real good!
Thanks.
Andrea Martin is fantastic. Also love her Edith Prickley. Never fails to make me laugh.
It's still funny after all these years I still can't help myself but to laugh till I peeing my pants.
Real pouty. Real real pouty. LOL!!
YAS! A Bernadette Peters reference never fails.
Spot on Bernadette Peters imitation Amazing comidic talent ensemble
Brilliant !
Miss you so much guys !
They blew up real good!

Gawd,I haven't seen this in forever, my friends and I used to say He Blowd up real good
I was laughing with anticipation just looking at the thumbnail.
Such talent on that show.
I think I've seen every episode of SCTV. The most cutting edge comedy on t.v. at the time, my brother and I really enjoyed this channel. Along with Monty Python of course.
The views count on this blowed up real good!
'i'm goin' out there a little miss nobody, but i'm comin' back a star!" 😂
I had no idea Andrea was so endowed!
where have you been? Plus Paul Shaffer infamously has been talking about them for decades.
Andrea was packing some heat back in the day
I thought she was hot. Those big sad eyes and what a body.
I STILL LOVE THESE!!!
Loved Andrea.
She blowed up real good.
Thank you.
Damn, that's a dead-on impression of Peters! The voice, the hair, the spaghetti-strap gown showcasing the big boobs lol. I miss this show so much, after all of these years SCTV is still funnier than most of the junk on TV today.
I have all sctv on dvd, a favorite part of my childhood.
Andrea Martin is a full-on genius
"you're a fibbin' "
Why you always Bawlin' when you sing?
Lost Joe Flaherty today.He is with John now.Rip Joe.
😂”Big-Jim McBobb”!!😂

I'm pretty sure she did Joyce DeWitt on the show!
Club paradise is one of my favorite movies and many sctv actors were in it.
Always loved SCTV but I never saw this skit. I must say Andrea Martin did a great impersonation and I never realized she was that well endowed, lol.
Goddamn. Martin does an amazing Peters impersonation.
Blow em REAL GOOOD!!!!!!, WHAT a TRUE CLASSIC!!!!!......
I always thought Andrea was cute, but that bra was working overtime, or they taped her up. Perfect impression.
OMG...she channelled Peters so well, I thought that Steve Martin might show up to simp for her...hilarious.
What a fantastic impression!
She forgot to mention Mel Brooks' Silent Movie.
Lol now I’m thinking of Andrea and Bernadette both being on The Good Fight 😂 pretty sure they didn’t have any scenes together but you wonder if this has ever come up between them
"Billy Sol Hurok:" One of the GREAT satire names in all of comedy! There was nothing like SCTV!
"She blowed up REAL good!"
Amazing!!!!!!!
Dayum Andrea Martin is FOINE here!
Andrea Martin is still funny. Sad her recent show didn't get renewed on NBC.
I remember when her TV series "Roxie" got yanked off the air after two episodes back in the mid/late '80s because it was so terrible.
