342: "Don't Worry Fat Kids" - Joe's Apartment (1996)

It's Ben's pick this week on Saturday Night Jive and since he's not bound by the rules of picking movies that relate to SNL we watched the Don Ho classic Joe's Apartment from 1996.  A beautiful love story about a kid in the big city fighting against corporate greed and trying to make his way in a world that doesn't understand him.  Also there's animated roaches that annoy and ruin every scene with their sped up voices.  This movie stars Jerry O'Connell, Robert Vaughn, and the amazing thespians Don Ho and Pepa.  MTV's first foray into feature films is a big old mess.  It's also not that interesting to talk about so we spend the majority of the podcast talking about George driving his wife to an emergency room through a tornado and playing a new game based on the website Common Sense Media.  Enjoy!

341: "Just The Times When It Really Stinks" - SNL S20E05 - Sarah Jessica Parker / R.E.M.

You like hearing people talk about an old ass episode of SNL?  Well, this is the podcast for you!  This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched Season 20 Episode 5 hosted by Sarah Jessica Parker with musical guest R.E.M..  It's one of the worst episodes in the show's history.  This was the week where Michael O'Donoghue died and the Republicans took control of congress and the whole show feels like a liberal wake.  We got some good old fashioned SNL racism with a sketch taking place in a Fortune Cookie Factory, bad Brooklyn accents, Adam Sandler and Michael McKean fighting over Sarah through song, some classic Norm MacDonald jokes, Robert Evans trying to rape young ladies, and quite possibly the worst SNL sketch ever in Munchkinland.  Enjoy!

340: "Gee, I Hope These Kids Bone" - Camp Nowhere (1994)

This week on Saturday Night Jive we watched another cheat pick.  Camp Nowhere from 1994 has no SNL alums in it but it does have Christopher Lloyd as a former drama teacher who lives in a van becoming the only adult supervision to a group of Lord Of The Flies wannabes.  A bunch of shitty kids decide to start their own summer camp with no rules.  It's the horniest movie starring children you'll ever watch (but you shouldn't watch it).  Also featuring Biff from Back To The Future, M. Emmett Walsh, the shy nun from Sister Act, and two kids who would later join weird sex cults.  Enjoy!
