    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      In the cold open 60 Minutes (1968) sketch, Joe Piscopo plays Richard Nixon ten years into the future. A caption states it takes place on April 14, 1994, eight days before the real Nixon died.
    • Quotes

      George McGovern: [to Gary Kroeger] Why, you scoundrel!

    • Alternate versions
      The summer 1984 network rerun makes edits to the 60 Minutes cold open (Joe Piscopo's line "lied like a two-dollar whore." was removed and replaced with "lied though the nose", though the original west coast airing only muted "whore") and Saturday Night News (where Piscopo's line "Screw 'em!" was replaced with cuckoo sound effects, though the original west coast airing muted it out entirely).
