One of the most brilliant multiple-parodies on television- not only skewers 'Casablanca,' but 'Oz,' Hope & Crosby, Astaire & Rogers, and of course, rich, Corinthian leather. And this non-sequitur of Ilsa & Sam performing the wrong song TOGETHER sends it over-the-top...."KNOCK IT OFF, SAM!!"
@aperfectrain It would be on "Rock Concert," but I'm not sure if I have the Neil Young one. I have the Amazing Kretin, and I know on the Midnight Express ep (NBC I believe) they have some blowups: Randy Newman, Helen Reddy... I'll look into it when I have more time, and we'll see.
Absolute genius to combine Casablanca/Wizard of OZ/Hope and Crosby Road movies all in one well written package. The writing is fine, like fine Corinthian Leather! The kind you find in a Cordoba!!!
That's a little extreme, but I agree they're the top rung of the comedy ladder, and FI is their best, esp. full-length, skit. Who else would think to use Candy of all people as the short Pattoo?

Anybody who doesn't appreciate the brilliance of SCTV should be weeded out...
And shot and pissed on.

@MurrowSon, and who would have thought Candy could do such a spot-on Bogart?
