Hands down the best AND funniest TV show ever. I was a college student in the early 80's and every Sunday working at the Sears Auto Center. We spent all workday noon 'til 5 reliving every hilarious SCTV skit from the night before. We had no clue how highly regarded SCTV and the incredible cast would be years from back then. Every so often my wife and I will dial up these old SCTV shows on KZbin for our guests and sit back and enjoy the amazement on THEIR faces. Thank you one and all SCTV 😊

I have always wondered if Howard Cosell ever saw this parody--I bet he would have loved it (imitation is the greatest form of flattery)

I moved from the "sticks", to New Orleans in the summer of 1980, but didn't get cable until 1981. That's when I stumbled on SCTV. That was, and still is, some of the best comedy I've ever seen.

I spent many an evening as a teen watching Monty Python. The Ministry of Silly Walks sketch was the first one I ever saw, it is crazy how almost 35 years later I remember just changing the knob (70s and 80s channel surfing for you young people out there) and saw this lanky, serious gentleman stepping down a sidewalk in an odd fashion, and then the sign... I burst out laughing, sat down on the floor, and never looked back.

“Against that man, Carl Sagan, whose series Cosmos, was, well, to be quite honest, not as effective as he’d hoped”. Levy nails Howard Cosell. This sketch has made me laugh since I first saw it staying up late on Saturday nights in the early eighties.
