What made SCTV unique was they didn’t have producers breathing down their necks telling them what they could and couldn’t do.There were no network exec. talentless egos in the way.Shooting up in Edmonton,Alberta had its advantages in that they could let their talent run wild and do whatever their imaginations let them,no matter how insane or outlandish it seemed.They were so far out of touch or put upon by what was currently hip or considered mainstream cool they in effect created their own brand of cool and hip.Talented artists that were allowed to create on their own terms resulted in something quite brilliant that has stood the test of time.

I don't know why people keep comparing SNL and SCTV... these shows are apples and oranges... One is LIVE.. and "constructed"in a week that difference allows for SCTV to be far more satirical and cerebral. When they are recreating a old TV show or movie etc...the attention to detail is incredible. Most all of it filled with very obscure references... SNL goes for the easy laugh generally.....broad strokes ..almost by necessity They wouldn't have time to ever do what SCTV did. If they were created similarly ....the SNL.casts would have been able to explore those themes. Just watch the old Belushi dancing on the graves segment.

Unpopular opinion: some of these are not funny at all, BUT it is purely because they did such a great job nailing the inanity of television movies and specials that they could easily be mistaken for normal early-1980s programming. I definitely laughed out loud at "Magnum P.E.I." and other scenes, and have fond memories of watching SCTV reruns on... A&E? with my parents as a young kid.

When the show is indicated it was very funny. And inventive. And they did lift some of their material. And it’s later years it turned out to be something like what you’re saying here. That’s why John Candy left. The show ended up with poor ratings and getting canceled. Think about that. When they started to develop these characters and have this long segments with the same characters that were sort of cynical versions of pop-culture singers and performers that you would see on talk shows the show took a nose dive.
