The Herlihy Boy: Dog-Sitting Service - SNL

Man i wish we still had chris farley

[@gregthealien9981]

No doubt...he was next level

[@PixelChris]

We can still hear him screaming about a Van down by the river in our hearts

[@shawnmoran3606]

My mom went to highschool with him, he was the greatest class clown by far. A legend that will never die, from Madison, WI.

[@thevoid99]

maybe he would make sandler do less shitty films.

Me too man...me too😞

[@cloo2937]

U can tell Adam is trying his best not to laugh at Chris.. love it

[@jodibrooklyn1033]

Yessss! You can tell hes concentrating on keeping it together.

[@russellpaloor8225]

Always!

[@shawnuel]

It's a darned good thing that Frickin' Fallon never worked with Farley. His tendency to constantly break character and pull focus from everyone else probably would not have sat well with Farley.

[@Surfer041]

Farley did anything to get his coworkers to break character. He usually succeeded.

[@Deadpool_64]

He pretty much never held it together when with Farley.

[@majoraslayer64]

One does not simply stand on stage with Chris Farley and keep a straight face.

[@ronalddavis9256]

Justin Oakes Sandler is about to crack up haha

[@bleepblop9556]

:) Mmmmmaybe Phil Hartman could, but yes, it's clearly extremely tough.

[@Scorch1028]

@@bleepblop9556 From 1990 to 1993, SNL had the most robust concentration of talent that they had ever had -- before or since. During those years, there wasn't a single individual that carried the show. There were just funny, and funnier cast members. The comedic synergy that was produced in those years was incredible. Sadly, all great things must come to an end. Once SNL lost Dana Carvey, Mike Myers, Julia Sweeney, Melanie Hutsell, and Phil Hartman -- the show would never be as great as it once was. Thankfully, Norm MacDonald on Weekend Update helped to keep the show somewhat watchable, but then Norm was fired for making offensive jokes; and that was the final death knell, as far as I'm concerned.

[@jaimesmith2266]

Hell no i would never be able to keep it together around him farley energy was unmatched😂😂😂

[@braddockakalatis2]

Chris Parnell could've done it.

[@Pete_Finch]

Honestly the zoom in with Farley being completely exasperated while panning off screen gets me every single time

[@BradyA1124]

Oh yes

[@bowlingstoned2113]

That's what made the scene, just his pure rage and passion while Sandler tries not to lose his shit 😂

[@janetgomez2949]

The “Tim, I’m not sure what we’re going for here” KILLS ME😅

[@alnobleman2884]

And right before that: "IT-" the way Farley stops suddenly like that, absolutely hilarious

[@WillowJordan1979]

I love that he's willing to support his son no matter what.

[@thedude4672]

You didn't cast Farley unless you were okay with him stealing the scene, because he always did.

[@cattathat]

Yes he did

[@christofferjenzen78]

He didnt do it to be a dick of course,he was just naturally hilarious. Seems a few people didnt like it but that is to be expected on snl,everyone wants the spotlight. Most of the guys loved sharing a scene with him.

[@SweetScientist91]

Yes anything with farley he was going to do his best to act funny and did....I really wish we had him lmao. "Come on let the boy feed your dog"

[@themister2750]

Damn Right! Lol

[@jacobalbrecht1561]

lmao I'm currently reading the book "Live From New York" and there was one part where one of the writers said any time he was stuck in the middle of writing a sketch, he would just write "Farley Enters" and it worked every time.

[@PowerGlove79]

Farley and Sandler together were comedy gold. Hell, some of Sandlers funniest movies were the ones that Farley had a supporting role in.

[@mooknick242]

without Farley..Sandler was mediocre

[@nebulousisgod]

Farley was brilliant but Sandlers earlier movies only had Farley do small roles and they were hilarious and did very well. He’s a billionaire now. If he were only mediocre on his own he probably wouldn’t be where he is today.

[@jodibrooklyn1033]

I love how the only real purpose of these sketches were to serve as a vehicle for Farley to freak out.

[@jameysingletonvideos]

The way Chris would have his voice go into a quiet, almost out of breath but still upset tone is something his brother said he got from his dad when he got really upset. It's hilarious. You hear it and you're like yeah, I know a guy like that. 😆

[@squeezy525]

Is it?

[@hfaith81]

I remember being a teenager during the snl years from the early to late 90s. This snl crew helped me get through the hard years of school. They brought me the laughs I needed then during some hard times. Much love to all of them!

Nope

[@sethgay489]

*Farley pauses “Tim I’m not sure what we’re going for here” 😂😂😂

[@cgroom23]

Sandler's coy smirking smile the whole time is what sold me letting him be my dog. I loved Sandler back then. Still do, but he was genius back then. Farley and Sandler in this sketch is too funny.

[@nazaretsalinas9997]

Chris Farley would have been 57 years old today if it wasn't for his overdose.

[@Scorch1028]

Chris Farley had the amazing gift of playing "believably much older characters". His characters were spot on caricatures of men in my grandparents' generation.

[@DAMIENDMILLS]

I swear it's like Chris whispers to Adam's ear right before the shoot, "You are gonna blow it, you are going to giggle like a little schoolgirl, and I'm gonna make it happen, Sandy. I'm gonna make it happen."

[@livewire2759]

@Nenethegreat W You might be a professional actress, but these are/were professional comedians.

[@grindcoreninja6527]

@Nenethegreat W Adam Sandler has actually confirmed that Chris actually did exactly that extremely often to every member of the cast.

Saw this as a kid, laughed my ass off. The other one about taking care of grandma really got me. Later in life found out Tim Herlihy is a real person and had been Adam Sandlers comedy partner for years and years. His son Martin Herlihy is one of the guys that make up Please Don't Destroy.

[@christofferjenzen78]

@Jim Johnson True(that would be pathetic).. but Maybe there was a lack of skill in the english language or the words "I'm gonna" got accidentally deleted before the person posted it and we just sat here while a person told us they were gonna take their own life. Boy,would we look foolish...(Insert gnarly Farley laugh).

[@rustyshackleford5743]

the delivery of "well you sir a jackass" cracks me up everytime.

Whoever decided to put Jason Patric in this sketch would be right at home writing on the current snl.

[@yer_old_pal_Jerky]

I think he did a great job here.

[@alwaysamysteryyes2021]

Right??

[@timmian85]

Norm MacDonald said on Stern that Jason Patric was his least favorite host. I can see why.

[@terronisaac2098]

Jason Patric was surprisingly good

[@robhill9336]

I agree Patric doesn't belong in this sketch. But he was great on the Don Lapre sketch with David Spade.

[@APisceanSlant]

At 1:34, you hear Farley do a double-snort, off camera. I love the chemistry these two had.

[@chrismcclure8625]

Solid catch

One of the coolest things my father let me do as a child, was watch SNL during this era. Thanks Dad! 😊

[@robcarey2411]

Fun fact: The "Herlihy" in "Herlihy Boy" comes from SNL writer Tim Herlihy, the college roommate of Adam Sandler and writer of many Sandler movies such as Happy Gilmore, Wedding Singer, Billy Madison, etc. Also Tim's son Martin Herlihy is now on SNL as a member of "Please Don't Destroy". Interesting!

I remember seeing this when I was 14 years old and thinking it was so weird and absurd. A year ago I bought a t-shirt with the Herlihy Boy Dog Sitting Service graphic from this video. I didn’t get it in yellow though. Still love wearing that t-shirt and getting some people who get the reference once in a while...although it’s very rare cuz it was such an obscure sketch.

@Nenethegreat W sounds like you might be projecting your own feeling, nothing against the guy because he did fine but his role just wasn't that funny

[@bleepblop9556]

It's fascinating. Great in LOST BOYS, Jason Patric gives a solid, committed, professional performance in this sketch, he's quite good, but some people, like him, are specifically born to play the "leading man" archetype. Whereas Chris Farley was kissed by God to make glorious laughter ring out. (And Sandler's good at making America settle for hollow Ponzi scheme fart movies.)

Most people shit on Sandler and say he rode Chris Farley's coat tails, but here I think you can see how he was actually the perfect comedic partner to Farley. The other guy is trying his best to basically do what Farley is but worse, while Sandler is basically setting up the joke for Farley. He wrote the skits and usually played straight man to Farley's insanity, and it was amazing.
