I play this whenever my dad's best friend comes over. He literally almost dies from laughter every time. He always rolls on the floor laughing, coughing and squealing that he's gonna be sick.
This sketch didn't predict Ford's death if he died 10 years after Dana Carvey re-did this sketch on his own show. Plus, Dana Carvey was not a member of SNL until 1988, and Ford was still alive in 1998.
Man, check out that writing staff! Louis C.K., Charlie Kaufman, Steve Carell, Bob Odenkirk, and Robert fuggin' Smigel! Dana Carvey gets on my nerves when he's on talk shows, 'cause he keeps on doing all his old clap trap, even now, but with writers like these, there's no fail for Dana.
Robert Smigel, Stephen Colbert, Steve Carrell, Steve O'Donnell...some of the greatest skit writers and performances ever - considerably funnier than SNL, and prime time America certainly wasn't ready. LOL
@EddieRevenge ABC very stupidly decided to air this show in their family programming block, right after Home Improvement. They got a lot of complaints and yanked the show mid-season.
"Stunning news from Yorba Linda today as Richard Nixon's corpse climbed out of its grave and strangled Gerald Ford today!!" Lmao!!! I remember first seeing this skit on snl and spitting out my soda...
Dana originally taped this sketch for his 1996 series [it was never shown], and "revised" it on "SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE" when he guest-hosted a few years later...
I posted this exact same video back in May-ish, and it was taken down within the week due to copyright infringement. How are you able to use this video, do you have permission from the owner?
I work at a news station here and we use the line about Ford being mauled to death all the time to make fun of our own product (we do the same thing where we tape many possibilities early then switch them in and out of the program when needed).
This was great. I always thought it was SNL and not on his own show.
