Matt Foley is a great character. There's another hilarious skit with Chris Farley trying out for Chippendales with Patrick Swayze.

[@markclark6702]

I was just gonna comment the Chippendales skit as well

[@trenthepner6087]

Gotta do the chippendales skit!

I LOVE that one. I had no idea how upset it made Chris Farley! (I think he and Dave were VERY good friends btw.)

The Matt Foley character was created by Bob Odenkirk.

[@itss_nattyj]

YES! Hands down one of the funniest skits. The Cowbell skit with Will Farrell is also one of the best.

[@erickthomas325]

That era SNL crew was legendary‼️ Chris Farley, David Spade, Adam Sandler, Mike Myers, Dana Carvey, Chris Rock, Rob Schneider, Kevin Nealon, Julia Sweeney, Tim Meadows, Phil Hartman, Ellen Cleghorn, Jon Lovitz, etc… Amazing Cast around that time!

There's also the tragic death of Phil Hartman (who played the father in this skit) who was murdered by his wife in 1998. He had a long career with SNL and was in the sitcom Newsradio, plus many comedies. He did the voice of Troy Mclure on the Simpsons as well. RIP Chris and Phil.

Those days of SNL were amazing. Farley, Spade, Chris Rock, Adam Sandler, Rob Schneider and Conan O’Brien was one of the head writers then. All of them were really close friends as well. Spade and Farley were best friends in real life. Bob Odenkirk, Saul Goodman himself from Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul wrote this sketch. He also was a dear friend of Farley’s as well. Farley was truly beloved by his peers.

[@rossrobertson674]

I think Colin Quinn too

[@promontorium]

Phil Hartman is usually good for the straight man but you can see he was already smiling from the beginning. One of those times everyone was losing it. Except Farley.

This never fails to crack me up. It's the physicality for me. If I was in that scene, I would've lost it all over the place when my guy fell on the table like that! I also have a shirt of him that says "Well La-di-Frickin' Da!" on it.

[@mikek5958]

Spade and Farley were a throwback to the past. They were the closest thing to a real comedy duo like Abbot and Costello and Laurel and Hardy, that my generation has ever seen.

[@brandonangstman]

Look up Jake and Amir, they are currently the modern version of that concept. They're pretty funny.

[@troublenesss]

YES!! Farley could always make his cast mates break. He gave 110% always.

Funny as hell! Also, the "interview" with a deadpan Paul McCartney, you know, the singer Kanye West "discovered" a few years back. (Hilariously ignorant fools actually believed that story.) That skit was funny, too.

Great reaction bro! 👍🏿 The early to mid 90s was THE LAST great period of SNL. In terms of comedy duos on SNL, it was Mike Myers & Dana Carvey, and Chris Farley & David Spade. Together, Spade & Farley were solid comedy gold and good friends. I miss Chris Farley. 😪 Hopefully, you'll react to Wayne's World 1 and 2 soon.
