More Cowbell and Sweddy Balls and D*** In A Box and Chris Farley’s Chippendales audition are all I will never forget❤️ Love this list

[@nicoleparreira1024]

just showed someone cowbell for the first time tonight

[@batgurrl]

@@nicoleparreira1024 i hope they ‘got it’ after endless views, Christopher Walken CLEARLY reading from cue cards might seem lame, just like Will Farrell embracing his chubby torso. Was this person from another country?

[@DebbieRuston-n8s]

Bill Hader's Stefon - not even Bill knew what he was going to say because John Mulaney changed the script at the very last second. It was hard for Bill to get through it - hilarious.

[@alexius23]

I have a soft spot for John Belushi & his Samurai skits….Samurai Night Fever with OJ Simpson

[@KatieorKJ]

Anything with Tom Hanks is a classic

[@thegood9]

But mostly David S. Pumpkins!

[@CaptainCretaceous91]

​@@thegood9ANY QUESTIONS?

[@CelestialPanda23]

Black jeopardy killed me. I was dying. 😂😂😂

[@douglasbunch3313]

@@thegood9I bought a David S Pumpkins suit 5 or 6 years ago. Has been my Halloween costume ever since.

[@oliviakinter179]

Schweddy Balls is in my top 5

[@_Tree]

Black Jeopardy has given us quite a few good ones......and definitely "More Cowbell"🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@batgurrl]

There is one that they post with Tom Hanks, but the first one I remember was with Robert DiNero which was hilarious and SNL doesn’t post it. As a white liberal boomer, Black Jeopardy only truly funny if there is a white person in there🙏🏼👏👏👏☮️

[@nicoleparreira1024]

I just showed someone cowbell for the first time today

[@_Tree]

@@nicoleparreira1024 nice 💯💯💯💯

[@jons.6216]

Oh, there's plenty of room for a part two with skits like Church Lady and Sprockets to name a couple!

[@alyzu4755]

Some ofy personal faves: The Land Shark, James Brown 's Hot Tub, The Exorcist and Omen parodies, and the 2000 election sketches.

[@batgurrl]

Land Shark was Chevy Chase, season 1 - I’m only a dolphin LOL And Hot Tub was a GREAT sketch👏👏

[@klwm6432]

The sketch with Chevy Chase and Richard Pryor is a classic! The name recognition sketch!

[@KayQue-s3r]

The Blues Brothers debut of Soul Man has to be #1. It was jaw dropping!

[@elsakettelkamp2347]

Add the recent Beavis & Butthead skit with Ryan Gosling. Omg. It was insane.

[@grant50]

The Coneheads on Family Feud belongs in the top 10! Bill Murray channels Richard Dawson!

[@BallymurphyBabe]

Christopher Walken as The Continental

[@melibabe]

One word: Bass-o-matic

[@lisawood8207]

Roseanne Roseannadanna

[@samuelcollantes1175]

Of course, who else needs "more cowbell" , cause i do. Happy saturday afternoon, Sophia. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.

[@lisam9233]

The Californians was a favorite of mine. It doesn’t get mentioned in the roundups of top SNL sketches. Maybe it’s too regional, but as a current LA resident, I can tell you it’s SO on the money!

[@sherryhannah9262]

Love ❤️ Wayne’s World no way way but no mention of Gilda Radner and Bill Murray as Lisa Loopner and Todd De La Muca as The Nerds?????!!!!…those sketches were laugh out loud funny….as Lisa said that was so funny I forgot to laugh…also no mention of Dana Carvey as Enid Strict the Church Lady?????…well isn’t that special???..as she’d say….I hope y’all will reply to this

[@lh6890]

Churchlady, King Tut, Choppin' Broccoli

[@CherylW39]

Oh Hell Yeah! CHOPPING BROCOLI! 😅 NO lie-i almost did it yesterday in a very serious meeting! 🎶 😂Dying!! 😊

[@maribethschlosser6785]

King Tut!

[@Buggy-su4oy]

The sketch with the late Chadwick Boseman as the doctor and Mikey Day as the first pregeant man who learned thd unfournate way he is going have to give birth.

[@art.of.verser]

Wayne's World, David S. Pumpkins, Matt Foley, and especially, More Cowbell never fail to leave me in stitches. Oh, yeah, and Mister Robinson's Neighborhood. 😂

[@Sajdar85]

Richard Pryor recreating The Exorcist has to be one of the best sketches of all time

[@everythingcollectibles]

THE BED IS ON MY FOOT!

[@_Tree]

The Temecula skit was hilarious! I'm glad that it got an honorable mention 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@markmh835]

I liked all of your choices. But other ones I would nominate include "The Luvahs" with Rachel Dratch and Will Farrell in a hot tub (succulent lamb shanks, anyone?); the Earthquake at the Name Change Office news story; and the sketches of Matt Schatt and his smoking hot wife. Oh, and the Lawrence Welk/Dooneese sketches with Kristen Wiig. 😁👍

[@Randomqueen20]

I thought Blues Brothers would have been number 1

[@kennybegeske8824]

My Favorite Is Wayne's World

[@raygordonteacheschess5501]

New Shimmer should have been included along with Samauri and the Blues Brothers. They could have explored the historic space a bit more.

[@MelricMagus]

Colin and Che joke swaps!

[@blugreen123]

The Lovahs, the Roxbury Guys, Spartan Cheerleaders and Christmas Candle! 😂

[@kamsismith]

Chris Farley: Matt Foley

[@crystalgreen3677]

I miss the sketches when they couldn’t quit giggling! A lot in the “land shark” days. Would love an episode of those, if it interest people.

[@CherylW39]

It's such a Win when the actors break characters!!! 😂

[@ashurmom2969]

Where the hell are the Blues Brothers!?!?!

[@Solarsystemrdffdfyyhh]

Mr pibb and red vines equal crazy delicious. I remember KZbin taking down fans recordings nbc didn’t want to post anything up. That was the skit of the decade, it saved snl!

[@ChickyKat88]

Play the skits without the obvious commentary!

[@melodythemassagetherapist6957]

Great picks!! 😎

[@nancythomas9353]

MIA playing Beyonce in Hot Takes 😂

[@nancythomas9353]

Sorry, I correct myself! It is Maya playing Beyonce, and the skit involves Sean Evans and a program he has called Hot Ones! 'Beyonce' is eating hot wings and trying to do an interview...funny! If anyone hasn't seen it, look it up.

[@jonathanfitzharris4196]

My all time fav is the Iceberg from Titanic. Just brilliant

[@prosen8966]

You picked some classics but John Mulaney’s B’way mashups at the diner, in the subway, at the airport, et al, were missing; Steve Martin’s Five Christmas Wishes & King Tut weren’t mentioned; Dana Carvey’s impressions of George HW Bush, The Church Lady, basically anybody didn’t come up; Phil Hartman’s spot on impressions also weren’t mentioned, most esp’ly his Pres Clinton going for a run but ending at a McDonald’s explaining policy by eating everybody’s food; & Matt Damon’s basically every appearance but his Kavanaugh Hearing, Westminster Daddy Show, Best Xmas Ever could all have been included. It would have been better to be a top 20 list, IMPO. (And those were just the ones off the top of my head) 😅😂

[@melindaroop1346]

Anything Dana Carvey did is a classic.

[@eileenphillips3358]

Cowbell unbeatable. Also, water ballet with Martin Short. The long erased from history Claudine Longet Invitational Ski Tournament. Mick Jagger and Jimmy Fallon in the mirror.

[@raygordonteacheschess5501]

My book "Outfoxing The Foxes" (1998) was a shout to that skit.

[@lorihansen8674]

Those wild and crazy guys? I can smell them through the screen!😂

[@OneOfUsHere]

Gilda Radner doing Patti Smith, Bill Hader as the chain smoking Italian interviewer, and, I'm 50 are great. I loved Tina Fey as Sarah Pallin, coffee talk with Mike Myers in drag, were funny. Cheesburger, cheeseburger is too good not to mention One I can't leave out is Maya Rudolph as Donnatella Versace. I could go on and on. It's been on for 40 years for goodness sake.

[@thatguy8514]

Do MadTV and In Living Color

[@amitmeir8109]

Give an honourable mention to "Lobster Diner" and I'm good

[@lisamurphy3291]

What about Gumby, Roseanne-Rosanna Danna, the Coneheads, Lisa Liebner, Ed Grimley, Eddie Murphy as James Brown, the Church Lady, and the Blues Brothers??!! 😂

[@Buggy-su4oy]

Tom and Jon Lovitz as the "Girl Watchers."

[@alexandraphelps4020]

MORE COWBELL!!! ❤❤❤ SQUEE! I’ve got a fever and the only prescription is MORE COWBELL!!!

[@tamarak9393]

Living in a van down by the river.

[@kevinpoole6122]

Gilda Radner’s impressive folio of recurring characters - Roseanne Roseannradanada Emily Litella Lisa Loobner Candy Slice And her classic “commercial” for Jewess Jeans!

[@Camirose323]

What about Matthew Perry teaching sarcasm

[@davidjames6879]

Pete Schweddy Balls. Eddie Murphy--James Brown Celebrity Hot Tub. Elliot Janeway......Classics

[@blairstingley4120]

No celebrity jeopardy???

[@sherryhannah9262]

Also no mention of Dana Carvey as President George H. W. Bush and Will Ferrell as his son George W. Bush??????..that sketch were they were hunting was so funny!!!!!….I shocked there wasn’t more of Will Ferrell in this countdown as President George W. Bush those sketches were laugh out loud funny l….I also hope y’all will reply to this

[@carolbuzelim]

Cant believe ‘watcha say’ wasnt even a mention

[@carmensandiego3691]

Like you forgot the gap, girls Whatever!

[@douglasbunch3313]

Another one from the world’s slowest narrator

[@ReesieandLee]

Christmas is not Christmas until you dance around the living room singing Dick in a Box.

[@wheelmanstan]

used to be such a great show, up until the mid-2000's

[@ratzass2]

More cowbell was DUMB😢

[@JerseyArkansas]

She talks over everything

[@jcraw6332]

Few of these are in the top 10.

[@violindylan]

Penelope should have been on this list!

[@hannahdelvecchio7521]

Ever had a pick one maybe cow

[@teresalatiolais8477]

The blues brothers all of the first 5 seasons

[@michaelgerhardt7130]

Don’t even comment, it’s obvious some 22 year old put together this list, some of these sketches I’ve never heard of. There is like 100 they missed but who really cares about the 70s, 80s and 90s casts?

[@haru2756]

Seriously?!..SNL and not a mention of Bill Hader.. 😶

[@susibielefeld6588]

dear sister?

[@EllisHall5430]

I guess I’m in the minority in my opinion of “Lisa from Temicula” I don’t really like the character personally

[@tommygraen4805]

Normally, I agree with you guys, but you guys were way off the mark this time compared to the Chippendale skit that cowbell skit is terrible. The Chippendale skit should’ve easily been number one that is one of the most iconic scenes ever from Saturday night live.

[@carmensandiego3691]

The hot tub lovers.

[@Camirose323]

Or the Taylor Swift skit with the parents driving worse than teens

[@jocelynastheart2732]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@aleksandrakettner905]

💟💟💟

[@Gdub33]

Okay i now understand why its "ms" mojo. #9. Yup totally get it now. Is this only for women? Should i not be watching? Am i bad boy for doing so?
