John Bellushi.

 

With Will Ferrell gone, SNL is going down the drain. I rather watch MadTV

phil hartman

 

his clinton was the best

 

he was great on newsradio

It was difficult for me to choose among Chevy, Dana, Chris farley and Will Ferrel... They are all good in their own styles... But I chose Dana, because he could do a whole show just by himself and his face is just plain funny, he does not need to speak...

 

Saturday Night Live is so bad now, that it is almost embarrasing to watch... It is like they don't care anymore... The talents in that show are completely gone... Will Ferrell was the funniest one in that cast and with him gone... Forget it, it just can get worse, I am just not going to watch. I officially hate Horatio Sanz, he is totally stupid and the next time he laughs through a sketch I am sending a bomb letter!

Belushi is the greatest of all time.

1st Most funniest: The one were Cris Farley and Patrick Swayze are competing to become Chipendale dancers.... Every time I watch that I am on the floor.

 

2nd Most Funniest: "I could have used more cowbell!" the skid with the guys (Will Ferrel and Company) pretending to be Blue Oyster Cult and Christopher Walken...

Chippendales

 

Barney.....Chris Farley

Adrian.....Patrick Swayze

 

 

 

 

Male Judge #1: This is impossible! Can't we just hire them both?

 

Male Judge #2: No. We've been through this. We've only got the budget for one dancer!

 

Female Judge: Yeah, but they're both so great.. I can't decide between them..

 

Male Judge #2: Well, that's our job. That's what Chippendales pays us for.

 

Male Judge #1: Yeah, but these guys have been through hell! Five hours of auditions, three callbacks..

 

Male Judge #2: Well, look.. if you want to give up your salary so Chippendales can hire both these guys - that's fine with me.

 

Male Judge #1: Okay, okay..

 

Male Judge #2: [ to offscreen ] Marcy? Bring 'em in?

 

Male Judge #1: This is the part of the job that I hate.

 

[ Adrian, a well-built dancer, walks in, followed by Barney, a flabby dancer ]

 

Male Judge #2: Adrian. Barney. [ sighs ] Listen, before we start, I just want to say once again that either of you would make a wonderful addition to the Chippendale family. I know you've been put through a long, long addition, and I know it's been hard.. But I think that in itself is a testament to how good both of you are, and just how difficult our choice is. I wish I could just flip a coin and be done with it.. but we can't. We're Chippendales. Marcy? Music?

 

[ Loverboy's "Working For The Weekend" blasts the stage, as Adrian and Barney begin their final audition. Adrian strikes many sexy moves which show off his fantastically fit body; all of Barney's sext moves accentuate the fact that he has a big belly hanging over his belt. ]

 

Male Judge #2: Thank you. Adrian, Barney, if you could just give us a minute, we'll make our decision.

 

[ Adrian and Barney exit to the back room ]

 

Adrian: Oh, Adrian, you were great out there, man! I know it's gonna be you

 

Barney: Oh, Barney, what are you talking about? You got it, and you know it!

 

Adrian: Whatever happens, you're the best!

 

Marcy; [ peeks in ] They're ready for you, guys.

 

[ Barney and Adrian shake hands and walk back out ]

 

Male Judge #2: Adrian? Barney? We've made our decision. But before we tell you, I just want to tell you again how truly difficult it was for us to make our choice, and to thank you for your patience throughout this long, arduous audition. [ pause ] We're gonna go with Adrian.

 

Barney: I knew it, man! [ shakes Adrian's hand ]

 

Adrian: [ starts to weep ] I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just never wanted anything so much in my life, and now that I've got it, I'm having a hard time dealing with it!

 

Male Judge #2: Well, that's okay, Adrian, we understand. [ pause ] Barney, we all agreed that your dancing was great.. your presentation was very sexy. I guess, in the end, we just thought Adrian's body was much, much better than yours. You see, it's just that, at Chippendales, our dancers have traditionally had that lean, muscular, healthy physique - like Adrian's - whereas yours is.. well, fat and flabby. [ Barney starts to vamp ] No, Barney. No, no, no. Barney, we've made our decision.

 

Adrian: Excuse me, can I make a point? [ wraps his arm around Barney ] I just want to say that this guy is one hell of a dancer, you know? I mean, he's got some of the sexiest moves I've ever seen! And if you're really serious about going with me, it can only be because his body's so bad!

 

Barney: Thanks, man.

 

Adrian: I mean, on straight dancing, in presentation, ain't no way I'm better than him!

 

Male Judge #2: Amen. Amen. You see, Barney, we considered the possibility that our heavier female customers might actually prefer a heavier, heavier man that they could identify with.. but then we decided..

 

Adrian's Thoughts: [ as Male Judge #2 drines off ] Even as I stood there listening to them explain why they'd chosen me, I still couldn't believe it! Ever since I could remember, I had dreamed about becoming a Chippendales dancer, and now I was one! I never saw Barney again.. but I would never forget how, for one moment, he brought out the best in me. That was the time of my life.

Behind The Music: Blue Oyster Cult

 

Bruce Dickinson.....Christopher Walken

Eric Bloom.....Chris Parnell

Buck Dharma.....Horatio Sanz

Alan.....Chris Kattan

Bobby.....Jimmy Fallon

Gene Frenkle.....Will Ferrell

 

 

 

 

Announcer: After a series of staggering defeats, Blue Oyster Cult assembled in the recording studio in late 1976 for a session with famed producer Bruce Dickinson. And, luckily for us, the cameras were rolling.

 

Bruce Dickinson: Alright, guys, I think we're ready to lay this first track down. By the way, my name is Bruce Dickinson. Yes, the Bruce Dickinson. And I gotta tell you: fellas.. you have got what appears to be a dynamite sound!

 

Eric Bloom: Coming from you, Bruce, that means a lot.

 

Buck Dharma: Yeah. I mean, you're Bruce Dickinson!

 

Alan: It's incredible!

 

Bobby: I can't believe Bruce Dickinson digs our sound!

 

Bruce Dickinson: Easy, guys.. I put my pants on just like the rest of you - one leg at a time. Except, once my pants are on, I make gold records. [ the group laughs ] Alright, here we go. "Don't Fear the Reaper" - take one. [ exits into the control booth ]

 

[ the group begins the song. Bobby slaps the drums, Eric jams his guitar, and Gene bangs on a cowbell. ]

 

Eric: [ distracted by Gene banging the cowbell ] Okay! Wait! Wait! [ the group cuts off their instruments ] Bruce, could you come in here for a minute, please?

 

Bruce Dickinson: [ stepping out of the booth ] That was gonna be a great track. Guys, what's the deal?

 

Eric: Are you sure that was sounding okay?

 

Bruce Dickinson: I'll be honest.. fellas, it was sounding great. But.. I could've used a little more cowbell. So.. let's take it again.. and, Gene.

 

Gene Frenkle: Yeah?

 

Bruce Dickinson: Really explore the studio space this time. I mean, really.. explore the space. I like what I'm hearing.

 

[ the group starts the song again, as Gene bangs more wildly onto the cowbell ]

 

Eric: Okay, wait! Stop! I'm sorry. Bruce, could you come back in here, please?

 

Bruce Dickinson: [ stepping out of the booth ] Fellas.. now, we just wasted two good tracks! That last one was even better than the first!

 

Eric: Well, it's just that I find Gene's cowbell playing distracting! If I'm the only one, I'll shut up.

 

Buck Dharma: It was pretty rough..

 

Gene Frenkle: You know, I could pull back a little. If you'd like.

 

Bruce Dickinson: Not too much, though! Fellas, I'm telling you - you're gonna want that cowbell on the track!

 

Gene Frenkle: You know what? It's fine. Let's just do this thing.

 

[ the band starts the song once more, with Gene banging the cowbell right next to Eric's ear ]

 

Eric: [ stopping the song again, fighting Gene ] Come on, people!

 

Bruce Dickinson: [ running out of the booth again ] That.. that doesn't work for me. I gotta have more cowbell!

 

Alan: Don't blow this for us, Gene!

 

Bobby: Quit being so selfish, Gene!

 

Gene Frenkle: Can I just say one thing? I'm standing here, staring at Bruce Dickinson! And if Bruce Dickinson wants more cowbell, we should probably give him more cowbell! And, Bobby, you are right - I am being selfish. But the last time I checked, we don't have a lot of songs that feature the cowbell.

 

Bruce Dickinson: I gotta have more cowbell, baby!

 

Gene Frenkle: I'll be doing myself a disservice, and everybody in this band, if I don't perform the hell out of this.

 

Bruce Dickinson: Guess what? I got a fever! And the only prescription.. is more cowbell!

 

Gene Frenkle: Thanks, Bruce. But I think, maybe if I just leave.. and, maybe I'll come back later, and we can lay down the cowbell. [ starts to leave the studio ]

 

Bruce Dickinson: Aw, baby..

 

Eric: Gene, wait! Why don't you lay down that cowbell right now. With us. Together.

 

[ everyone agrees ]

 

Gene Frenkle: Do you mean that, Eric?

 

Buck Dharma: He speaks for all of us.

 

Gene Frenkle: Thank you.

 

Bruce Dickinson: Babies.. before we're done here.. y'all are gonna be wearing gold-plated diapers.

 

Alan: What does that mean?

 

Bruce Dickinson: Never question, Bruce Dickinson! Roll it! [ exits back to booth ]

 

Eric: [ ready to lay the complete track down ] 1, 2, 3, 4.

 

[ the band starts up again. Close-up on Gene as he bangs the cowbell to freeze-frame with graphic: "In Memorium: Gene Frenkle: 1950-2000" ]

With Will Ferrell gone, SNL is going down the drain. I rather watch MadTV

I agree.

 

I loved when Ferrel used to do his impression of Harry Carey. The hot dog skit is hilarious.

 

Anyways, Chris Farley was my favorite SNL member. Followed very closely be Dana Carvey, Phil Hartman, and Will Ferrel.

 

I haven't seen many of the real early ones so it'd be hard to chose one of them.

gotta go with my boy norm macdonald

Darrell Hammond is the shiznit. His Bill Clinton and Al Gore impressions were hjlarious. Plus, he's from Melbourne, FL.

Dana Carvey would be 2nd for me. His Bush impressions are hilarious...actually his standup is funny too.

Farley or Ferrell

The Blue Oyster Cult Skit is my favorite all time. Just plain frigging hilarious.

That is a ****load of names!! :o

 

 

 

Either Mike Myers or Adam Sandler

i'm going to bump this up and turn it into a tournament

Will Ferrell, easily. He's the funniest person I have ever seen!

i'm going to bump this up and turn it into a tournament

i guess that means barry bonds is the all-time greatest SNL member.

Ferrell is the best I've seen, SNL has sucked since he left. I haven't watched it much this year. The new cast members are awful, except for Kenan Thompson's Cosby impression.
