Weekend Update: Adam Sandler on Thanksgiving - SNL

[@BabyLambCreations]

No song can capture the spirit of Thanksgiving like this song. God bless you, Adam Sandler.

I HAD THE PRIVILEGE TO ACTUALLY SEE THIS ON TV WHEN IT FIRST DROPPED . 31 THANKSGIVINGS LATER, I STILL PLAY IT ON THANKSGIVING . MY 10 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER EVEN PLAYS IT WHEN ITS NOT THANKSGIVING . IT BRIGHTENS UP THE DAY . THANKS ADAM FOR SUCH A MEMORABLE TUNE

[@woody79ish]

Same, didn't miss an episode with this cast!!

[@alanas9939]

​@woody79ish same here! In my humble opinion this cast was even better than Akroyd/Belushi/Murray/Radner/Chase

[@jesebsp]

Me too

[@sameemas1723]

@alanas9939 Daaaaaamn . . . That's a tough debate . . . Even they were before my time , I was still in nut sack as I prefer to say , I have seen the old school ones and , it's debatable. . . Either or , still Hilarious AF

[@RichardTetta]

I have to admit, I didn't always "get" Adam Sandler when I was younger. Its taken age and wisdom for me to appreciate his brilliance.

[@kirktown2046]

He's just such an unabashed goofball, a champion of silliness. Low brow with no shame and child-like charisma.

[@kirkmcfee]

I still don't get it but I'll keep trying.

[@vr4runner]

Been laughing at his stuff since I was a kid 😂

[@mikemaffe]

Really? His comedy has been juvenile and aimed towards younger people for years.

[@fiddelsworthdinkle]

​@@mikemaffeI agree with Mike. As a kid I found him funny. But as a man I find him obnoxious.

[@vlogily8043]

Wish Adam Sandler got a bunch of celebs together to sing an awkward version of this while they’re social distancing to cheer us all up just IMAGINE that!

[@BostonKid13]

I could listen to this 100 times on thanksgiving and still laugh ever single time.

[@adamdorgant9454]

Agreed on that!!

[@BasqueNYC]

The best is when Kevin comes in and sings the "Sammy Davis Jr. Only had one eye" parts still gets me

[@johnk.2508]

When Adam & Kevin did this song as a comedy bit on Weekend Update, I'm sure neither of them had any idea that the song would go on to be a beloved part of many people's Thanksgiving celebration. I have a feeling that The Turkey Song will prove to be a timeless classic that will still be enjoyed years after Adam & Kevin are gone.

[@nadogrl]

At 72, I can’t believe that I hadn’t heard (or even heard of) this “song”, until just now. Not a fan, but love the Hanukkah ones.

I say that one day there should be an animated movie featuring all the characters that Adam made famous. They would team up to rescue him from a villian which happens to be Canteen Boy in disguise.

[@PublicSecuritySectionWolf]

@@chompdevil What?

[@fracturedfingers]

There are stories about how the SNL cast would be up all night for several nights working on writing skits together, many times with drugs involved. There is no doubt in my mind that this was hammered out at like 7AM after all the drugs were done and gone and everyone was tired and exhausted, and instead of trying to work on skits anymore at that point with a fried brain, Sandler was like hey I'm gonna just fuck around and try to write a funny song and maybe we could do something with that. And he made this, and it's genius and it's a classic.

THIS was the prime era of SNL. Back when it was hilarious every single week. Sandler, Farley, Lovitz, Rock, Nealon, Meyers, Carvey, MacDonald, Spade, Schneider, etc....only lineup that even comes close to that, was the OG 70s cast. Great times. I miss those times.
