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

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!

    Speed Eating! I remember when I was a kid they'd run these cheesy speed reading ads. This spoof is hilarious!

    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...
