SCTV was like SNL ... but for smart people.

I love Katherine O'Hara. If she ever views this video (and reads this comment), she should come to Milwaukee and find me. She is a timeless beauty.

@goofywilly - It did make it. It was awesome, and most of the cast went on to greater success.

@chasspeed ---guess thats why it wasnt nearly as popular as SNL. But way funnier.

@shirtandtiewilldo --Letterman is funny but he cant interview a guest for even a minute. Tom Snyder was greatest talk show host.

@goofywilly ---wondered thatnumerous times myself. Some of SNL skits were really funny, but they dont compare to SCTV. SNL also had a lot of humorless skits towards end of the show. SCTV didnt have many bombs; the humor was often more subtle. Maybe that was the reason

@goofywilly Because SNL was entrenched and had a lot of power at NBC. There have been many times during its history that it should have been canned.

Catherine O'Hara was really beautiful.

100 times funnier than snl WTF? why didnt this show (SCTV) make it???:(*

Snyder had no idea who these people were

@shirtandtiewilldo Yes, the last year or two of the Tomorrow Show was not exactly it's finest hour, but through most of the shows run it was very special. I wish some of the earlier episodes would get released on DVD or turn up on Youtube.

I remember seeing this when it aired originally. I loved SCTV, although, it was almost better when it was a half-hour syndicated show and they were working with a shoestring budget.

People have made a lot of fun of Tom Snyder here, but he did some groundbreaking things on his show. It wasn't the usual talkshow fare most of the time. Less than a year after this aired, The Tomorrow Show was cancelled and replaced by Late Night with David Letterman.
