  • By request of the son of the father who was an audience participant of Fish Cleaning Night.
    A 90-minute Friday special, with guests Jane Curtin, Marv Albert and his Albert Achievement Awards, Dancers from the Rock Steady Crew, and Martin Short, uploaded previously but here in better video quality (SCTV clips deleted due to copyright caution).
    Also the Museum of the Hard-to-Believe. with Jude Brennan as "Sarah Blustein," and Stupid Pet Tricks.
    But the main event is the fish cleaning, and Mariel Hemingway is recruited to lead the way.\

    Don’t know where to start. This episode is so great. The fish gutting and cleaning. Jane Curtin. The band trying to play along with a piano playing dog. Really top tier stuff. Thanks for posting.

    This is the first episode I ever saw. I was 15 years old and remember seeing the audience members lining up with the fish and was thinking wtf is this? Created a life long fan. He defined comedy for two generations and will affect it until the end of history.

    What a bizarre, avant-garde thing to do on a talk show. This kind of stuff is what made Dave a legend. He dared to experiment and push boundaries, even if only about five people in the country got the joke.

    Yay, another one Ive never seen! Its like going into a time machine for an hour and bring a little gem back with me to share with the world. Must be how Don Giller feels. I mean my 14 year old son thinks these shows are as awesome as I do. I told him these shows were visionary and informed the sort of self aware humor you see on the best places on the internet. He agrees. I think it might have been that all the first people on the internet were Late Night fans in the 80's and early 90's and left an indellible mark on it.

    And here I was thinking Brother Theodore was just being colorful when he said he was selling roses at a fish market.

    Fotomat! And Jane's newborn in 35 now. Dave reminds me of how Fallon pales in comparison.

    SCTV really guards its clips. Hard to find the DVD's new as they are out of print.
