[@greghudson6861]

There's a part of John's delivery on that "Jesus Christ" that tells me it wasn't on the cue card and that was genuinely the first time he'd been hit with the slime.

@@alexvasquez537 thx lol. It kinda ruins the joke to explain it and his fans probably know this joke, so I recommend you check it out. It's a joke from his Kid Gorgeous show about the time he went to Best Buy with his ex-wife. I didn't know if it was okay to bring up his ex-wife in a video with him cuz their separation was very messy. I didn't see anyone bring it up so I thought I also shouldn't but now it's pointless.

[@justinhackstadt6677]

They could have told her only John would have got slimed, but then last minute did both of them. I've heard from actual people from the show they do this to keep it fresh and fun. Much of the time the prop department is other comics doing it to the other comics.

[@mayflower7811]

That's why I don't think they were acting anymore

[@billybatson7852]

My guess is that in dress rehearsal, they just did a small amount of slime. But then cranked it way up to get their reactions. No way did they see that coming.

[@micahclawrence]

Oh how could you not know double dare? The greatest kids and family challenge show of the 90s!

[@JusNoBS420]

Marc Summers hosted “Double Dare” in the late 80’s. Funny thing is the host had serious OCD and the slime and messes freaked him out

[@natekankelfitz9735]

[@Quartzquiz333]

Marc has been through a lot. He got into a bad car accident in 2012 when his taxi cab hydroplaned. His face hit the front partition with the credit card machine and he had to have several surgeries to correct the damage it caused.

[@sminthian]

You might know him from Unwrapped on Food Network. That was running until a few years ago.

[@ashteay__]

lol I can’t tell if Kyle and Mikey are actually begging them to stop pouring slime or just playing characters , seems so damn sincere

[@EmpyreanLightASMR]

I KNOW had the same thought haha

[@rosebroyles8972]

I want more sketches where I'm pretty sure the cast doesn't know what's happening, but they have to improv anyway. 😂😂😂

[@kidkique]

Considering they had to move just to get into the slime they were probably just acting. If you look at them they're bending over just to get in the Slime if they stayed put they wouldn't even get hit

[@klina7645]

The best part- when she says "You can be my sidekick, the incredible HOMO!", John's look of shock 😮, then cutting to "Nineteen EIGHTY" 😂.

[@deborahdobbins]

I feel like the person who wrote this sketch was an actual fan of You Can't Do That On Television. There's the tragic outfits, Cecily Strong clearly dressed up as Moose, the legit history of them trying to perfect the slime formula in the early years, and the fact that there was an actual episode about adoption that got banned in 1988 for being too offensive. This sketch is pretty on point.

[@danschumacher5427]

Those out fit still can passed for today

[@only1moore]

They also referenced the Divorce episode when Christine bought the part about her fellow cast member being divorced because she couldn’t get a date. Whoever wrote this was a genius!

[@Mark2756042]

Yeah the skit writer had to have been a fan. It's astonishing to look back at how politically incorrect that show was for a kids' show.

[@only1moore]

@@Mark2756042 so true. Never knew a Canadian sketch comedy show aimed at teens can be so raunchy, little that they know it would become the standard for future teen-centric programs.

[@deborahdobbins]

@@only1moore The episode that's always amazed me that it made it to air is the Nutrition episode from 1981. In it, the principal of the school has been caught doing something wrong (they never say what) and Lisa "Motormouth" Ruddy is sent to the principal's office to talk to him. The teacher said that the principal having to listen to her blabber on would be the closest thing to "sheer hell" that they could punish him with. Later, Lisa returns to the classroom to announce that the principal committed suicide due to her incessant talking. She continues to blabber in the classroom, so the teacher and all the students pull guns out of their desks to shoot themselves. Then they decide it would be easier to just shoot the source of their misery and turn their guns on Lisa instead. Growing up with this show is the reason why my sense of humor is so dark.

[@Igaveyoumyfakename]

John sounds like he's begging for his life, when he's REPEATEDLY telling them to stop sliming him.

[@sidthesloth12]

I honestly couldn't tell if John was in pain or not, real talent has a way of shining...and John Mulaney shines on SNL

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

From what I understand, that would be relatively accurate. The kids hated getting slimed and got bonuses for it. The first instance was particularly nasty as it was slop from the cafeteria that had been sitting for about a week that had turned green due to mold.

[@laalaa99stl]

Brave man John for taking the glasses off with still-armed charges in SNL prop master hands.

[@garrenshot]

He may not have known there were more chargers

[@grumbles]

I think it was the only way he could read his next line based on how he tries to look at the card over the glasses and then removes them to read it. But that made it even better

[@Igaveyoumyfakename]

I don't even know what the premise of this skit was, but watching John repeatedly get blasted with slime and begging them to stop is effing hilarious.

[@jme9245]

Canadian kids show from early 80s. You cant do that on television

[@sminthian]

@@jme9245 It was pretty much the show that created Nickelodeon, it was their first big hit.

[@billybatson7852]

I'm guessing their dress rehearsals didn't include so much slime, so no one was ready for it.

[@billyeveryteen7328]

I was wondering how the makeup and wardrobe people were going to get the cast cleaned up so quickly before the next part of the show, and watching John Mulaney introduce the band still covered in slime quickly answered that: they didn't.

[@canaisyoung3601]

It's happened before: once on a beach movie sketch where Charlize Theron got covered in whale guts, and again when Kristen Wiig hosted and they had this sketch where two acupuncturists try to stop a man from bleeding profusely and they end up getting soaked when a skin bubble burst.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

The kids all had multiple sets of costumes, but according to Abby Hagyard, she only got slimed once because she only had one set of clothes and getting slimed set the production schedule back as they had to wait for the cloths to be cleaned and dried before continuing. Also, a bunch of the kids wouldn't be in every segment, so there'd be some time for clean up while waiting for those other segments.

[@cerpintaxt362]

I've been rewatching the episodes that were uploaded here recently. It's a shame that there was never a DVD set and I don't think it's ever received a legitimate home with any of the streaming services. Sadly, that's the case with nearly all the Nickelodeon stuff from their early days up until sometime in the '90s. Some of it has been getting re-released in recent years, but a lot hasn't and probably won't be at this point, Much of it is horribly offensive by modern standards or is simply of little interest to people that aren't old enough to have watched it when it was new.

LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!! I watched that show religiously in the 80s... and then the repeats in the 90s. I wish you guys would do one about the chef, Bart, who always popped up saying "I heard that".

[@julieharden2433]

omg! They showed You Can't Do That on Television AND Christine getting slimed on SNL! I loved that show so much!

[@tom2point0]

I posted almost exactly the same comment! I never would have expected this classic to show up in this day and age!

@@estusflask982 Nah, the show they're making fun of was from the 80's. You gotta be in your 40's to remember it when it originally aired.

I'm nearly 50 and I remember it. So do people older than I am. Great show.

I remember that show, Alanis Morrisette was on it!! And my parents wouldn't let me watch it because something about it was "not appropriate for children."

[@canaisyoung3601]

The whole point of You Can't Do That on Television was to introduce subversive kid humor to the masses. It was so popular, Nickelodeon used that aesthetic for its network after years of being an educational kids channel called Pinwheel.

The adoption episode being a real thing is wild. So much of this is spot on.

[@SmallSpoonBrigade]

Yep, it's on KZbin at the moment and I can see why the creators regret that episode. It was funny, but definitely is far beyond where they probably should have gone with it.
