Trivia
According to the Katakana at the beginning of the skit, the name of the Japanese game show that Farley's character Larry Templeton appears on is "Quiz Kings".

Quotes
Matt Foley: Hey you kids are probably saying to yourselves: I'm gonna go out there and grab the world by the tail! and wrap it around and pull it down and put it in my pocket. Well I'm here to tell you that you're probably going to find out, as you go out there, that you're not going to amount to jack squat!

Alternate versions
On the Comedy Central Version, the music in the Schmitt's Gay commercial which was originally Van Halen's 'Beautiful Girls' has been replaced with a generic compilation of guitar riffs. Also, the conclusion of the Chippendale's skit with Patrick Swayze used to include the theme from 'Dirty Dancing' (I've had the time of my life), but has also been changed to a generic melody.

10/10

Before Tommy Boy and Black Sheep, there was Saturday Night Live with Chris Farley, that will forever remain the funniest stuff he's ever done

Chris Farley is one of my favorite comedians and to me will forever be missed as the big, clumsy, and drop dead hilarious comedian to ever live. Saturday Night Live shows the funniest skits I have ever seen of his. The Japanese show, "Da Bears," The coffee fight scene, The Herlihy boy, Schmitts Gay, The Chris Farley Show, Matt Foley, Chippendales dance scene, The El Nino weather scene, and more. Before Tommy Boy and Black Sheep, there was Saturday Night Live with Chris Farley, that will forever remain the funniest stuff he's ever done. I highly recommend you seeing The Best of Chris Farley because you will die laughing at his skits. He represents comedy!

Hedeen's Outlook: 10/10 **** A+
