It's Amy Poehler week on Saturday Night Jive and we're talking about the 2004 film Envy starring Ben Stiller as a guy who gets jealous when his best friend, Jack Black, invents a spray that makes poop disappear. Frequent Saturday Night Jive offender Barry Levinson directed this literal turd where Christopher Walken seems to be doing an impression of Christopher Walken. We never get to find out where the poo goes but we do get to spend some time with the fascinating Bosco, who seems to live in the woods just to carry out errands for Walken. This movie stinks. Enjoy!

139: "Don't Let The Fonz Touch Your Pee Pee" - P.U.N.K.S. (1999)
It's Randy Quaid week on Saturday Night Jive and we unearthed a kids film from 1999 called P.U.N.K.S. starring Quaid as a George McFly-esque dad who needs to be saved by his kid when his evil boss played by Henry Winkler wants to sell super human suits to terrorists. It's pretty terrible but does have a certain kid power charm to it. If you are an 8 year old boy you would probably love this movie, everyone else can probably skip it. How old is too old for Henry Winkler to play The Fonz? What constitutes 'Stranger Danger'? Who puts cake on their bookshelf? What was Hitler's answering machine message like? Why can't bartenders see through a ZZ Top disguise? These questions and more on this week's episode of Saturday Night Jive. Enjoy!

138: "You Can't Just Eat Poop" - Year One (2009)
Happy New Year, three weeks late. We watched Year One directed by Harold Ramis and featuring SNL alums Horatio Sanz and Bill Hader. This movie has it all, poo eating, vomit, farts and a guy peeing into his own mouth. It's pretty terrible and what would a terrible comedy be without a confusing blooper reel at the end which confounds more than it does entertain. Enjoy!

136: "The Ballad Of Ellen Pompenew" - The Ridiculous 6 (2016)
Previously on Saturday Night Jive we pulled out Tim Meadows and Ellen Pompenew out of the hat. That will all be explained. Well, unforeseeable circumstances happened and we ended up with a lost episode so we called an audible and watched The Ridiculous 6 Adam Sandler's first Netflix original comedy. It's terrible. Enjoy!
