Man, almost 50 years later and this stuff is still hilarious. The voice of the shark is so funny, polite yet sly, especially his radio segment, lololol
Can you or someone else explain the joke with Chevy Chase at the end? I understand the physical comedy aspect -- the dropping the newspapers bit -- but there's got to be more to it than that!
"..... is to graciously invite the, uh.. the fish into your living room, and offer him a soda pop.. and maybe some Oreos and cookies.. just make him feel at home. And, uh.. that’s the news." 🐟
It's hilarious that they're using the same living room each time. Of course also a fact that they don't have much budget. Unrelated...that radio is really kind of beautiful.
My dad did the same but he would say candy gram and then once I said what? Again then he'd say Landshark. Then die laughing. I never knew what it was from till my 20s but I always thought the voice he used was funny so I started doing it to him too. He laughed Everytime never got old to him
The landshark skits are among my favorites. Even after all these years, I still will randomly think about these skits about once a month. Still makes me laugh.
It's the same person essentially, but different lifetimes, she keeps falling for it so she has to repeat it until she should have learned. What ends up happening instead, is God feels bad for her inability to see the malcontent in her world which prevents her from obtaining the foresight to know better. Lololol so he moved her to a deluxe apartment in the sky!!! Lol now she has to look out for sky sharks made of clouds.
I used to love this skit, they were the best group, Chris Farley and his generation were good too but the original cast is still my favorite, I'm one of those "old people" .
Every Saturday night when in JHS I watch this with my mom. She absolutely loved the Landshark Candigram skits. Even some nights in the early 80's after my night at Macy's at Kings plaza was through we would laugh together. Great memories. RIP mom you left way too soon and too young.
Omg loved the 70's on snl my whole family watched back then and we would laugh so hard I fell of the couch once laughing my ass off.... miss that so much!!!!!♡♡♡♡
Lorne Michaels was inspired by Monty Python’s Flying Circus, which were well known for their meta-endings. The initial SNL seasons were heavily influenced by them.
Ah and there's also the fact the Landshark knew there was a secret knock but he did not know what so he winged it and you got to admit he was close, very close.🤣
@@fw1421 I remember seeing it the first time and being turned off by the "exaggeration". Then I found a video of Joe Coker and was shocked at how Belushi nailed it.
They should do a "Landshark 2020" where the landshark tries the same tricks only for someone to just look at their phone and say "You're the landshark." ...then the landshark goes behind a cardboard cutout.
"Ohhhhh noon Mr Bill!" My dad still has a mug with that line and little sketch face with two beedy eyes and an o for his mouth. I never realized it was from SNL until much later in life. Such a great mug though. And it's still kicking.
2:23 “He’s killed three separate women in the same building.” 😂 Glad Hooper clarified they were three separate women and not the same woman killed three times.
Roflmao! Sitting in my rear window is a stuffed great white shark. I have a heart shaped box of candy under its fin. You can always tell someone is over 50 if they laugh when you say "Candygram!" 🦈
I Freakin' Love Landshark!! Saw Jaws as a kid, was terrified of the water right outside my house and then SNL saved me! I laughed my as# off, couldn't get enough of SNL .. I could go to the beach again. Recently it's getting as good as Original cast ...takes an evil guy pretending to be "in the " WH
Just the other year a friend and I was out swiming in a lake and I turned my head for one second. She went dun dun… dun dun… dun dun dun dunnnnnnnnn! Man she scared me!😂😂😂
Best part is john belushi doing richard dreyfuss. John hated actor types and liked tormenting Dreyfuss. Kinda sad cuz I like Dreyfuss overall, especially in Moon Over Parador, and Down and Out in Beverly Hills.
Man, almost 50 years later and this stuff is still hilarious. The voice of the shark is so funny, polite yet sly, especially his radio segment, lololol

The land shark sketch is still comedy gold. R.I.P to the legendary John Belushi.
Don’t forget Don Pardo

Land shark….
@@mimim8532 Land Shark was Chevy Chase. SNL was overloaded in talent back then.😎
even before the Blues Brothers😎😎 .
The Richard Dreyfuss impression here is severely underrated
Stop saying underrated, you gen-z dummy. NOTHING is underrated in this sketch.
Aha, is that why Belushi’s acting here is so over the top?
Right when it showed the scene with John Belushi in it and me knowing that it was him imitating Richard Dreyfus I laughed out loud hard! 😂
Whenever I knock on relatives’ doors, I always say, “Landshark.” It’s been a joke in my family since these Landshark skits first aired. 😂😂😂

The funniest thing about this comment is the you could tell @ Natasha Benitez never even thought of a peephole
Love Belushi's impression of Richard Dreyfuss's character
SO GOOD
😂😂😂
@@thetamoramay7331 It's very good, and original. Darrel Hammond's is excellent though! See the Joe Pesci show sketch with John Goodman.
This is hilarious, Belushi's impression of Hooper is . On point.😂
Ken Pudsey yes!!! he was sooo committed!!!
@@mama-ayanna Yes..he put his heart and soul into his comedy R.I.P.
Belushi would been a great Hooper in the film if Dreyfuss had not gotten it.
His voice sounded almost identical.
And he liked to torture Richard Dreyfuss cuz he hated his over acting. I like Dreyfuss's work myself.
"..... is to graciously invite the, uh.. the fish into your living room, and offer him a soda pop.. and maybe some Oreos and cookies.. just make him feel at home. And, uh.. that’s the news." 🐟

Have a rootbeer!!
"Get a posse? Surround the area? Walkie talkies? Maybe carry some harpoons?" XD!
Carry some harpoons that’s a stupid idea....AHHHHH!!!!!
the voice Chevy used made it even more hilarious!
Hands-down one of the best sketches! I love how they take it so seriously. Absolutely hilarious.
😂😂😂
First recorded "phishing" scam.

Bad pun!!
It's hilarious that they're using the same living room each time. Of course also a fact that they don't have much budget. Unrelated...that radio is really kind of beautiful.
I love how the Landshark pretends to be Chevy Chase.
He's that clever!
it was the 70's Man
Who’s Chevy chase this is landshark dude
I hear that they've booked Landshark as the voice talent behind The Animated Adventures of Chevy Chase!
I apologise for the lie I just told, but if you really want to know; I was just jumping the landshark....
*(I REGRET NOTHING!)*
"Offer him a soda pop and maybe some Oreos. Stay tuned for something else." - Land Shark 1975
"I mean, stay tuned for music...."
Totally using these to teach my niece not to open the door to strangers
...and Land Sharks, I hope
Sounds like an interesting use.
They're going to open the door so fast to try to see the land shark.
Oh yeah. All PSAs should be this good.
@@alfa-psi She got eaten by a land shark RIP
I love Land Shark! This never gets old.
When I was a kid, Everytime someone knocked, Mom would say "candygram"..or she'd knock on my bedroom door "candygram" and laugh and laugh..
My dad did the same but he would say candy gram and then once I said what? Again then he'd say Landshark. Then die laughing. I never knew what it was from till my 20s but I always thought the voice he used was funny so I started doing it to him too. He laughed Everytime never got old to him
It means your mom is Cool...
@@amymesserschmidt2044 And your dad...
sunnylilme my mom said candy gram in that sharky voice too!
yes this was a hilarious line back in the 70s. we all went around saying "candy gram!" and laughing
Chevy dropping the newspapers at the end was f'ing GOLD. No one does it better with props then him - he's flawless.
He’s my favorite
The Landshark mixed up the secret knock, notice? They didn't.
it did it backwards
You two must be the teachers pets.......Get out your kneepads boys!!!!!
I guess Jane Curtain wasn't paying attention 🤣🤣 ?? XD
It was so soon after they left that it didn't occur to her that it wouldn't be them.
The landshark skits are among my favorites. Even after all these years, I still will randomly think about these skits about once a month. Still makes me laugh.
Still hilarious after all these years! 😆🦈
I'd like to Legal your Eagle!😍
They rent out the same apartment to exclusively single women who have no furniture of their own.
they light the walls slightly different colors
Yeah, great building with no peepholes in their doors.
They all get the same radio.
And the same mallet.
It's the same person essentially, but different lifetimes, she keeps falling for it so she has to repeat it until she should have learned. What ends up happening instead, is God feels bad for her inability to see the malcontent in her world which prevents her from obtaining the foresight to know better. Lololol so he moved her to a deluxe apartment in the sky!!! Lol now she has to look out for sky sharks made of clouds.
Legend says Landshark is still out there hunting.
This is when SNL had that low budget feel, like it was a public access show. Made it so much funnier.
I think it still had that into the early '90s. Wayne's World looked pretty low-budget. And Toonces. LOL
I could not agree more. Hysterical!
"Had"?
@@potentialsideeffects1085 Oh yeah, it lost that feel more than 20 years ago. Today's show has a polished, corporate feel to it.
Personally I dont see how budget effects comedy
A coked up John Belushi imitating a coked up Richard Dreyfuss. Yes, the 70s ruled!
At least the shark looked better then the one used in the actual Jaws 3
And the story is much more realistic.
Oh it gets a lot cheesier in all the ripoffs... there are so many. and they’re all on Amazon Prime. I can’t stop watching them
Bruuuuuuuccccee!
this should have made into a 2 hour movie
My therapist: “It’s okay, it was just an SNL skit! LandShark can’t get you!”
Make sure your "therapist" never attempts a home visit.
If your therapist is a Single lady she may want to make sure no one orders her a candygram lolz!
He's so smart! He's so clever!
Still one of the funniest sketches ever!
I used to love this skit, they were the best group, Chris Farley and his generation were good too but the original cast is still my favorite, I'm one of those "old people" .
@cosmicVox13 Oh yeah, good times, good times!😊🤗👍
Me too. I stopped watching in later years. The "Not ready for prime time players" were the best.
Mine too! My sis and I would watch this every Saturday. “the not yet ready for prime time” era is the best...Yes I’m old too
I watched during the Adam Sandler, will Farril days... stopped watching in the late 90’s due to them bringing in the Harvard ‘writers’
I have the 1st five seasons on DVD...Hours and hours of laughter
If only the real Jaws III was this good...
This was the original plot, but SNL stole the idea so they had to go in a different direction
7:01 Ahhh the 70's, back when you would hug passionately instead of make out
Flame Beats that part!
3:50 I nearly pissed myself when the Land Shark kept poking in and out the door😂🤣
That part is the most reviewed section of the video according to UA-cam.
Every Saturday night when in JHS I watch this with my mom. She absolutely loved the Landshark Candigram skits. Even some nights in the early 80's after my night at Macy's at Kings plaza was through we would laugh together. Great memories. RIP mom you left way too soon and too young.
So I’m just discovering SNL sketches and I’m laughing so hard at this but I’m so excited that Dr Albright from “Third Rock” is in this.
Jane Curtin is pretty awesome.
Omg loved the 70's on snl my whole family watched back then and we would laugh so hard I fell of the couch once laughing my ass off.... miss that so much!!!!!♡♡♡♡
My brother still "candy grams" me on my intercom!
The guy on the radio bulletin at 1:48 sounding like he realizes he's getting turned off 🤣🤣🤣
SNL should play more with meta endings. That was genius.
Lorne Michaels was inspired by Monty Python’s Flying Circus, which were well known for their meta-endings. The initial SNL seasons were heavily influenced by them.
Well, one episode in 2017 had this in the Cold Open:
ua-cam.com/video/iFGjvH6Q2rQ/v-deo.html
This is much better than *"Jaws: The Revenge"!*
Dr Donald Blake yes
I agree 100%
Good point, I think that you are right 😄
Anything is better than Jaws The revenge. Except maybe Chariots of Fire.
SNL predicted Sharknado
Patricia paid the price because she didn't notice the Landshark got the knock wrong.
Yep - he did 2-3, and it was supposed to be 3-2.
Ah and there's also the fact the Landshark knew there was a secret knock but he did not know what so he winged it and you got to admit he was close, very close.🤣
Wow, I needed me some Landshark today! Thank you for the giggles from my teeny bopper years!!!😍💝💯♾️
These are on Hulu, I've been watching the first season. Lol, they predicted there would be more Jaws.
Why did Landshark became extinct? Please clone Landshark back!

hands down best skit snl ever made at least for me, I still do my own landshark bits which make me laugh
They should do a "Landshark 2020" where the landshark tries the same tricks only for someone to just look at their phone and say "You're the landshark."
...then the landshark goes behind a cardboard cutout.
That sounds really dumb.
Dan Aykroyd was the genius; he made everybody look good .
i met him a few years ago at a signing.
Nice man; good businessman-- worth over 100 million
It's Publishers Clearing House...open up...CHOMP!
I showed these recent Landshark uploads to my 10 year old niece and she likes them!
WOW thank you so much for posting this. Love watching the vintage SNL clips
I want to decorate my next apartment like this. keep a mallet on the book shelf jic
I remember SNL Back then, the shark and Mr Bill were my favorite
Oooooo nooooo! 😮Lol
"Ohhhhh noon Mr Bill!" My dad still has a mug with that line and little sketch face with two beedy eyes and an o for his mouth. I never realized it was from SNL until much later in life. Such a great mug though. And it's still kicking.
Hilarious! R.I.P. Belushi & Radner.
Yes.
And R.I.P to Chevy Chase and Dan Akroyd's careers
Man they’re missed
I can only imagine what great things John would have done if he didn't pass. He will never be forgotten.
I agree. John was too damn young to die. 😔😔😔😔
A lot of cocaine, I'm sure
John Belushi was supposed to be Peter Venkman in "Ghostbusters" (1984).
I love u guys, thanks for making me laugh
2:13 lol @John Belushi writing off his partner with a quickness
My brain suffered a major meltdown. Dan Aykroyd in this sketch looks too much like Bill Hader.
Me and my family still reference this skit to this day top 10 IMO.
this felt like watching a fever dream
If they would only quit renting that one apartment...
yeah, I was thinking the same thing. That same couch and radio....which probably was on loan from someone's house for the skit.
LANDSHARK! OMG I LOVED LANDSHARK! A CLASSIC! THANK YOU!
i like how at the end they break character and Belushi mentioned turning down One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
I'm not sure which is more dangerous; landshark or the McElroy's glass-shark 😂😂
2:23 “He’s killed three separate women in the same building.” 😂
Glad Hooper clarified they were three separate women and not the same woman killed three times.
Dan Akroyd, and John Belushi=Comedy geniuses.
Classic. "Candygram" is something that I still use when the opportunity arises.
Everytime I watch this skit I get an urge for Root Beer and Oreo's.
Massive Head Wound Danny. Gotta admire his acting there... I was feeling his pain as he was writhing about!
I I was lucky to see John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd as the blues Brothers at a Christmas concert in Boston Massachusetts at the Boston garden
Still the *GREATEST* cast!
Chevy Chase is the perfect voice as The Landshark
Roflmao! Sitting in my rear window is a stuffed great white shark. I have a heart shaped box of candy under its fin. You can always tell someone is over 50 if they laugh when you say "Candygram!" 🦈
I miss these. I'm a porpoise, ma'am
The good old days of SNL
".......surround the area"
Gets me everytime
You can see a shadow of the Mike boom at the far right at 6:34
"Is to graciously invite the fish into your living room, offer him some soda pop and maybe some Oreos." - totally not the Landshark hahaha
Belushi was fantastic as Hooper.
I saw JAWS with my Dad and it was the best movie I ever saw. I was 11 years old. I'll never forget JAWS. This was so funny when I saw it.
Man, I spent forever trying to find this! I love landshark so much
Alaina Sings Songs candy gram ...
Twilight Gardens presentations A candy gram!? Oh boy!!
Alaina Sings Songs Hey Baby😏
I can’t even begin to count the number of candygrams I’ve missed out on over the years because of this irresponsible news clip.
I Freakin' Love Landshark!!
Saw Jaws as a kid, was terrified of the water right outside my house and then SNL saved me! I laughed my as# off, couldn't get enough of SNL .. I could go to the beach again. Recently it's getting as good as Original cast ...takes an evil guy pretending to be "in the " WH
So you were more scared of Landshark than actual sharks. So the water didn't seen so scary anymore?
Snl is a a liberal clan meeting
Yeah, after I saw Jaws, I was afraid to go in the swimming pool.
One of the best! Now I’ll be spending my Monday watching more of these clips
Before Sharknado we hand the land shark first
Just the other year a friend and I was out swiming in a lake and I turned my head for one second. She went dun dun… dun dun… dun dun dun dunnnnnnnnn! Man she scared me!😂😂😂
Ahhh, the "Gold Ole Days" back when Saturday Night Live was fun to watch...Hard to believe that was over 40 years ago..
The shark face was so scary as a child too 😂
Pain in the neck was the greatest cause of death in America in the 70's. More then landsharks
"Listen, Sue, there's no time for that now." Well, there was in the novel.
Ackroyd and Belushi are so coked up halfway through that they can barely remember their lines.
The Landshark is a metaphor for Covid-19
...and narcissists
The shark is drawn to the apartments. The single women all have the same one, so it makes the perfect lure.
Best seasons and cast of all!!
Best part is john belushi doing richard dreyfuss. John hated actor types and liked tormenting Dreyfuss. Kinda sad cuz I like Dreyfuss overall, especially in Moon Over Parador, and Down and Out in Beverly Hills.
SO HAPPY i bought the first 5 years of SNL on DVD
