SNL: The Best of Chris Farley



THE NEXT BIG GUY SNL STAR
SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE has for years tried to have someone on their star line up to appease every group available. And after the success they landed with John Belushi, they've always managed to have a fat guy on the show. No, Belushi wasn't fat, he was a bigger than standard fella though. So apparently those behind SNL figure it's a formula best not tampered with.

The series began on a high note and then suddenly had some of the worst years possible. Of the bad years (which for some reason there seems to be no DVDs of or highlights of on cable stations showing reruns) only two members stood out and were kept for another few seasons (Eddie Murphy and Joe Piscopo). Then it got good again. Then bad. Then good again. Fortunately they had another break out star in the fat guy area. His name was Chris Farley. Unfortunately he followed the fate of former lead Belushi and died at a young age from overindulging in the wrong things.

For fans of Farley and of SNL though we...

Best SNL comedian period
Anyone who loved Chris Farley's comedy should own this DVD. It has many of his best skits. His comedy has often been imitated but no one is as funny as Farley. The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is that there were some skits missing that I really thought were funny. There was one in particular where Farley was at Sea World and the whale kept splashing him, making him angry, LOL. I really hoped it was on there but it wasn't.
