Trivia:
When Eric Idle hosted on 20 October 1979, a clip was shown from Idle's project "Rutland Weekend Television" (1975) of his Beatles parody The Rutles. The success of the clip led to Lorne Michaels co-producing the movie version, The Rutles: All You Need Is Cash (1978) (TV), which includes appearances by numerous SNL alums and regulars. more

A love/hate relationship with a classic, 22 November 2000
Author: 23skidoo-4 from Calgary, Canada

An earlier reviewer said this show sucks and that the "new cast" is terrible. What is interesting about SNL is how whenever there is a changeover of cast, it has become almost a tradition to hate the newcomers. In truth, however, many of the episodes that have aired in recent years -- even since the 1998 review I refer to -- have now come to be considered classics. And the cast members so many of us hated at first are now often seen in a favorable light alongside the "classic" cast of the late 1970s. And what cannot be denied is no TV program in history has been such a fertile breeding ground for future stars. Just look at the cast list and be amazed.
