Reply #6: Yeah, and I still have all of the old VHS tapes, too... [View All]

...The "Leave It To Beaver" bit still kills me. "Street Beef" ("I'm freezin MY beef off out here")...hell, all of it is classic.

SCTV reminds me of "The Chris Farley Show"...you could sit there all day and go "Remember when...that was AWESOME." The only time that I felt the show lost its spark was in the final Cinemax era (although Levy and Martin Short scored a hit with "The Queen Haters" (a Sex Pistols parody) on "Mel's Rockpile" performing their song "I Hate The Bloody Queen"...)

There's a good article in the new TV Guide on the release of the DVD...interviews with cast members and such. One "secret of their success" was that they all liked each other, supported and encouraged each other, and did their best to produce what THEY thought would be funny, without pandering to an audience.

The Polaroids of the cast members in character that decorate the set are way cool, too...it makes them seem even more like "long lost friends."
