305: "The F**k Heard Round The World" - SNL S06E11 - Charlene Tilton / Todd Rundgren / Prince

This week on Saturday Night Jive we're watching another classic SNL episode from the notorious Season 6.  Lorne Michaels leaves the show and takes the cast and writers with him.  When the show comes back they've hired an all-star cast that includes Joe Piscopo, Gilbert Gottfried, Denny Dillon, Ann Risley, and of course, Charlie "Mutha-fuckin" Rocket.  This is the episode where it all came screeching to a halt.  Dallas star Charlene Tilton hosts with musical guests Todd Rundgren and "new talent" Prince.  Things are going as good as Season 6 goes, meaning the show is pretty terrible, and then all of a sudden during the Goodnights, Charles Rocket says one of the 7 words you can never say on television.  The cast reaction to the four letter word is one of my personal favorite SNL moments of all time.  Unfortunately the episode leading up to that glorious "fuck" is truly horrendous (minus the debut of Mister Robinson's Neighborhood).  Shortly after this incident the producer and entire cast were fired (with the exception of Joe Piscopo and Eddie Murphy) and they went back to the drawing board to re-tool the show a second time.  Sketches include Mister Robinson's Neighborhood, Pork Parade, Women Behind Bars, Submissive Sugar Daddies, Stevie Wonder in Fiddler On The Roof, a Rocket Report from the subway, and puppet boxing from Marc Weiner.  We're still trying to solve the mystery of Charles Rocket's murder and we're also on the lookout for the whereabouts of Yvonne Hudson.  Enjoy!

304: "What's Wrong With A Queef, Boy?" - Disaster Movie (2008)

We're cheating again on this week's episode of Saturday Night Jive, but do you call it cheating when we hate winning?  We watched Disaster Movie from 2008 which features no SNL alums (but does reference SNL related movie You Don't Mess With The Zohan, along with every other movie that came out in 2008).  A few years ago we watched Epic Movie featuring Darrell Hammond so we decided (for some dumb reason) to go back to the well of Friedberg and Seltzer for another scoop of fun.  This movie sucks, but does it suck worse than Epic Movie?  It relentlessly references every movie from 2008 (actually it just references the trailers since the movies they are spoofing weren't released when they were in production) so you get fun goofs on classic films like 10,000 B.C., and The Love Guru, and Jumper, and The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian, and Wanted, and the remake of American Gladiators...we also get the big screen debut of Kim Kardashian.  Ugh.  Enjoy?

303: "Pat Morita Dropkicks A Car" - Collision Course (1989)

Welcome back to Saturday Night Jive where we talk about Saturday Night Live and Saturday Night Live related movies.  Except for this week, it's another freebie pick as we watched Collision Course starring Jay "Poopy Butt" Leno and Pat Morita.  This movie has no SNL connections but just felt like a movie we should have watched by now.  Jay and Pat are two buddy cops on the hunt for a stolen turbo charger and...some stuff happens.  It's a 90 minute movie with 2 or 3 great scenes.  Tom Noonan explodes in a pile of watermelons, an old lady drives a super car, and of course Pat Morita dropkicks Chris Sarandon through a car window.  Enjoy!
