  1. SNL was a launching pad for many careers, including Steve Martin, Dana Carvey, Eddie Murphy, Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Tina Fey, Kristen Wiig, and many more.

  2. Seeing "Blue"Lou Marini emerging from the sarcophagus, painted gold and playing his sax still kills me.

  3. John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Gilda Radnich and Steve Martin are the reasons I watch SNL, they are the best! Thanks for the memories RL

    1. The Czech Festrunk Brothers, Yortuk (Dan Aykroyd) and Georg (Steve Martin). Two wild and crazy guys, cruising for American foxes!

  5. Steve Martin didn’t launch his career on SNL. He was already established as a stand up comic including a comedy album and other TV appearances. One of those comics that stopped being funny several decades ago.
