3/27/08 Favorite Comedy Sketch

TheEditor · 03-27-2008, 08:48 AM

Hey all, Debbie is on a nice vacay, so I'm stepping in for the QOTD.

Tonight, Michael Ian Black continues a guest role on "Reaper," and he makes me think of MTV's "The State."

Therefore, today's question is: What is your favorite comedy sketch?

It can be from Monty Python, SNL, MadTV, The State, Kids in the Hall, Whitest Kids U Know, anything.

I loved The State! Way to bring it back... that show should never have been cancelled.

On SNL, in recent times, I love Justin Timberlake's "Homelessville" & "Omeletteville". I also love Kristen Wiig's character where she is always bragging and one-upping people around her. There was a funny sketch last year with Will Forte when Peyton Manning hosted where he did a dance to try to pump up a basketball team that was losing. Those are my recent favorites off the top of my head.

So many to choose from...

How Not To Be Seen by Monty Python
Chicken Lady & Rooster Boy from the Kids in
the Hall
Stuart on MadTV
Matt Foley on SNL

But my favorite would have to be Red Skelton and his "Pepperidge Pies" outtake with the cow.

Ms. Swan (Alex Borstein) on MadTV. All of her sketches were hilarious! I really miss Ms. Swan!

Ohh! I loved the State too! Good call!

I also liked when Lindsay Lohan hosted SNL. There were a lot of good sketches from that show, like the Debbie Downer one in which she and everyone else on stage just starts cracking up. Also, the Harry Potter one, where she plays Hermione with gigantic bazooms, and all of the male characters get really distracted and hurriedly leave to, um, take care of some business.

Horatio Sanz, playing Hagrid: "I'm going to go beat my dragon."
Rachel Dratch (I think), playing Harry: "Oh, did you get a new pet, Hagrid?"
Hagrid: "NO!"

(I may have gotten the speakers wrong in this quote, but omg, it was too funny.)
