    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In the "Honeymooners: The Lost Episodes" sketch, George Wendt as Ralph Kramden has trouble opening the front door. He ends up entering through the bedroom door and ad-libs "I was hiding in the bedroom the whole time!"
    • Quotes

      Mr. Morrone: [desperately trying to sell whale meat] It's good for him, it's healthy! Blubber, nature's toothbrush!

    • Crazy credits
      This show pretends to be directed by Francis Ford Coppola, and he is credited as such during the opening credits, with George Wendt listed first as 'The Host' followed by the rest of the cast 'in order of appearance' and 'music by' Philip Glass. Dennis Miller does not receive a credit as a cast member, but is identified during the introduction to Weekend Update.
