You can tell that Simon was a new SNL character at that time, because when he asked the audience whether they wanted to see his drawings, at first they didn't respond. In later Simon skits, when he asked, the audience promptly applauded enthusiastically

Haha I was actually curious to know which one this was in the order when I was watching it. I did NOT catch that audience thing tho. Good lookin. But yeah, overall it just felt like an intro. “Intro to Simon” if you will…

Ha! "Draw-rings." If anyone can remember, Myers did a Sprockets skit in 1990 where he had "Dieter's Dance Party." He read a list of music tracks on the charts and one of the tracks was "Mommy's with the Angels by Simon."

i love how he was spoofing simon the chalk drawer and most people don't realize. it makes it extra funny.

I saw a clip of that he chalk drawer I instantly thought of this I never knew of Simon the chLk drawer till now.

I'm not much of a Mike Myers fan, but this skit is honestly so lovely and sad. I keep coming back to it, and every now and then, I find myself humming "Well, hello, my name is Simon".
