And now Joe flaherty has passed 🙏🏻

"Sometimes I forget who I am." "Well, you shouldn't. You're my maid."

My favourite is the guy who walks in with the violin case. "Which side are you, the bride or the groom?" "I'm the violinist." x

That part had me in tears

Don't you have something to clean?

My fave so far; about chemical warfare: "It's no more dangerous than sticking a baby's head through a buzz saw."

Seriously, the amount of talent on this show is astonishing.

That face is too funny.

She's great The level of talent in every single person. There's no dead weight.

I love it when she's trying to seduce Billy?

"The knock...out!!"

Yup! And the drama in Days of the Week shows the quality in the actors and how much range and dedication they had.

And . . . we must not overlook THE DIRECTOR and the SCREEN WRITERS. Without them . . . nothing happens.

@@rockyhill9965 Absolutely !

Most excellent, I must say 😎

What years was this shown? It's so funny, but I don't remember it!

OMITB is the best series right now

Yeah, That's the thing, You can never become tired of watching these.

I'm watching the whole "season" now. Lol puts SNL to shame. Extra soapy and silly.

I had no idea he was on this show at all. When I saw him I thought, That guy looks alot like Bill Murray." LOL. It was him. Cool

And every soap had one lol

I thought of general hospital, I think 🤔

@@tdward23 yes and guiding light

Your comment is the highlight of my day. I had never heard of this before and bam, here I am. 40 years to wait for the wedding episode. you are awesome. lol

i was searching for the clip of the unforgettable lines from catherine ohara: 'all they want is sex and that's all i give them'. Then i found the whole series condensed in this youtube video. Second City TV is Timeless comedy

Have you seen her in _For Your Consideration?_ Heartbreaking performance, even though it's comedy.

I know you're referring to the "Violet McKay" character, but the way she annunciates the word 'fiancé" as "Sue Ellen" @19:08 is hilarious-very Joan Cusak.

Everybody was on-track playing melodrama for a soap, except Andrea Martin was playing for a laugh-track on a kids' show. Really dropped the penny on that one.

She isn't in this skit - she left in 1979

Martin shirt is small man and Rick moranis is shorter than him!

Both Martin and Catherine O’Hara are comic icons, and they didn’t even get paid for their writing contributions for the entire first season, because they were women, even though they wrote their own characters and sketches. And all of the guys didn’t stand up for them, they just took their extra pay as though it was the most natural thing in the world.

When you think about the money they made - even me even the guys at the time kind of ridiculous - def not 100000 an episode or 10,000 I bet , hope they get something from you tube

Have you noticed it's a whole channel?

@@ferociousgumby I'm referring to whoever took the time to gather all the clips.

Whoever put this together is a genius!

😂

Gallons of whiskey were sacrificed in that serie and you want to know ... Clay got drunk on whiskey and Sue Ellen got gang banged by bikers!

Governor of Oregon & Mayor of Portman..

Clay Collins played by Rick Moranis from Ghost Busters and Honey I shrunk the Kids. He died at the Alter. Nice Cameo appearance from Bill Murray And I think the Terrorist who impersonated a Pentagon employee looked like Bill Paxton? But his profile didn't look like him? I wish they gave the names of the cast?

@@Prof.Tarfeather Bill Paxton was played by Dave Thomas. He also played G Gordon Liddy in other skits and his character here is very similar.

"Glad to know it turns on pretty girls like you." - Clay Collins

Clay''s unreleased work is finally going to see the light of day in a double album. I think it's going to be called his "Wide" album because the records are both being released in that format that didn't last too long, ie on oblong discs that are almost twice as wide on one axis than the other. One of Clay's never-finished songs---I AM GLASS WALRUS NUMBER 9---was just completed by the Queen Haters. At least we'll all have this to help quell the tears of our' unending sorrow at his loss.

@@RSEFX If you believe in forever,then Clay’s life was just a one night stand. If there’s a rock & roll heaven,with Clay they’ll have a helluva of a band

I’m sure that wherever he is, Clay would be glad to hear that his music turns on anonymous KZfaq commenters like you.

A delight to see proper music journalism.

Hahaha same here 😂

Same here - some of the crap we got instead. I would've loved this cos it had people I loved to see in the films of the day - like John Candy, Rick Moranis, Catherine O'Hara. I feel like the internet was invented to let us play catch up in Britain how to join the dots with how all those people go into the movies.

in Canada, at this time anyway, we ruled the seas of comedy!

Canadian here... I always assumed people in the UK didn't think much of North American humour.

@@modern_memory I think it was more we didn't have enough access to it. Now we do!

The Bloody Kentucky...

@@tunafang I order that to test people’s intelligence.

I know😂

My mothers drink if choice was bourbon with cranberry juice

Forever grateful. You are the best, uploader.

Yes, it's a classic parody and compelling in its own right because the SCTV cast are such great actors on top of being first class comics. The funny thing is, surreal as it gets, so much actual daytime drama is even more insanely weird but played straight without satire, and it enhances the sheer fun madness...

What, your marbles?

"Sis?"

And it's a parody specifically of "Another World." Mrs. MacKay and Mojo are Iris and Vivian to a T.

Calvin Saxon day’s of our lives doesn’t use laugh tracks...

So good!!!

Wait, it's a parody..? 🤯

If something it truly funny, it doesn't need a laugh track.

Its just a work of pure beauty. The church scene is gold.

" That's Doctor Rocco to you. "

Whenever anyone in our family uses the phrase “no bigger than…”, we always say “this cup??”

Agreed - the concept of timing and subtlety are a lost art today.

And so cute! As was Catherine O'Hara! What a great cast and show they were!!

No she isn’t. And this is a soap opera not a comedy. Sorry to shatter your precious illusions. Refill?

@@juliusward5291 Are you…stupid?

That guy got quite greedy 😂😂

She could be different, each day of the week. It goes "Sunthd.... Damnit!

She is Amazing

I've purposely used this line. It's genius.

I want that carved on my tombstone!

agree.....still laughing

When did this come out I have never even heard of this. I'm 50 . What channel did it come. on cbs hbo showtime ?

...and a few gallons of whiskey drinken...

@@whateverheather655 You're 50 and asking if SCTV was shown on HBO or Showtime? Anyway, if it aired in your town or city you'd have found it late night on a local station, not CBS, NBC, or ABC.

@user-ug4jp8lp4q like I said I do not remember this being on TV. Yes we had HBO in the early 80s and showtime in the 80s. I came from a very very strict home so that's probably another reaon I don't remember this show

Agreed!!!

His movies were hit-and-miss but John was a Canadian treasure. Lost him way too soon.

He was amazing, even when he took on a serious role in that movie with Ally Sheedy and the serious, as well as the funny parts of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles!

It was a gift....for Columbus Day!

Rocco is one tough mamma jamma

EXTREMELY seriously lol.

Your comment took me back to when my Mom used to be glued to the television for Another World! Lol! So funny. It was a short period of my childhood. Many of my Mothers obsessions only lasted a short time but obsessed she would become just the same. Like the time she had over 40 finches residing in decked out cages all over our house. Lol. Good times.

I loved the Carol Burnett cameo!

Well...it's SCTV. That's the cast of that show lol

Oh, honey, you must be so young! SCTV was a seminal humor show

Trevor Provencher w/rotary dial!

I think that logo was for Edmonton Telephones which was the city-owned telephone service back then. Thunder Bay also had a municipal telephone company at one time-at least into the 1980’s.

You’ve never heard of SCTV?

SCTV is Amazing

watched this late night it ran on moses znaimer's independent now defunct city tv, former owner of muchmusic. snl ripped off this canadian concept

@@maskandvaccinefreeandproud2110 I know... I know!

@@azsunburns No, no, I’m just a little surprised. I suppose it would probably be a little obscure to the American market or ANY market outside of our own. Lol. We’ve never had a whole lot of crossover hits but when we DID get recognition for something in entertainment it was typically our comedy. No worries. It’s still pretty cool to hear someone stumbling onto a old Canadian comedy show that we all loved and liking it too. All these performers are a point of national pride to many of us. They are to me at least. I grew up watching most of them my whole life. I wuz 6 yrs old when I first started watching them on our local station and it was while on SCTV. Lol!

Lol

This chair ... I used to play behind there

You go ahead and order that yourself! LMAO 😆

@Steve Stone Oh Yeah! The original SNL cast was far the best of them all imo.

They're not "skits", they're sketches.

@@evanrockwell7883 What's the difference? 🙄

SNL hasn't been funny in 30 years plus. Haven't watched it for nearly 35 years.

@@georgesabol459 - Yes! 100%. This is because SCTV and MADTV were all about the comedy, poking fun at all sides equally. SNL is continually hell bent on lecturing me about politics. I haven't watched it in about as long.

Reminds me of a "Golden Girls" bit, where Blanche was reading a serial comic strip I forget the name of. Dorothy said she hadn't read that strip since the early '60s, or some such long ago decade. "Well, you haven't missed much, Dorothy; let's see....it's later that same afternoon......."

They even have the draggy, funereal pace of the dialogue right.

Me too🤔🧐😂😂😂🤓

As well as the dramatic music & closeups.

I wonder what they could have done with the truly batshit insane plots that came in the decades since.

Agreed. Relaxing & a bit of silly does the soul good....but poor Clay Collins. His plight puts the edge into the mix, sadly. 🚬😎

Strangely true!

Your nose... your lips are so inviting...
