281: "Blazoo" - Canteen Boy An SNL Recurring Character Study

And we're back with another installment of our award winning series ...And We're Back where we dive into the history of an SNL recurring character.  This week it's Canteen Boy.  We all remember Canteen Boy, right?  Adam Sandler plays this naïve (young?  his age is never really established) former boy scout who gets into a whole mess of trouble and has the ability to control snakes.  We cover every sketch (and 2 monologues) featuring Canteen Boy as well as dip into the 2 sketches where Sandler plays Bill Cosby (because when would we ever get a chance to talk about those?).

Sketches include - Block Party - Season 18 hosted by John Goodman
Food Union - Season 18 hosted by Jason Alexander
Garage Sale - Season 19 hosted by Jeff Goldblum
The Headline Store - Season 19 hosted by Christian Slater
Canteen Boy Goes Camping - Season 19 hosted by Alec Baldwin
Heather Locklear Monologue - Season 19

And...
You Bet Your Life - Season 18 hosted by Christina Applegate
