Don't even get me started on all the MadTV characters I love.

I especially love Will Sasso's 'Steven Segal'. Freeking awesome.
Also his handyman workshop character that gets maimed all the time.
And his Kenny Rogers drunken impersonation.

LORRAINE!@!#@!, !!!
Stuart & mom,
Trina,
The Gap Troll
This n' that with Rusty,
Swan,
ANYTHING with Bobby Lee, especially 'Tank'!
any of their movie/tv spoofs
and especially the red carpet interviews.

and I love it when Seth Green guest stars on Brightling Greeting sketches (the angry older wheelchaired duo who runs a greeting card company, and keeps smashing into the desks with the wheelchairs-CHOMEDY).

My fave SNL characters are
anything with Christopher Walken,
Mr. Peepers !!!
Mango,
Spartan Cheerleaders,
Roxbury Guys,

and holy cow, I love Buddy Mills. Wish there were more of those!

Conan O'Brien has the Masturbating Bear.

catlover79 · 04-21-2007, 02:36 PM

I used to love various Jay Leno characters: Evil Jay, Iron Jay, Beyondo, Mr. Brain and Billy Tuttle. Now it's just crap like hidden camera stuff and Ross the Extremely Annoying Intern. For me, now it's just the monologue, Headlines, and whenever they have stuff like Truth in Labeling, The Duller Image, etc.

Madame X · 04-22-2007, 12:39 PM

The early "Saturday Night Live" had a lot of great characters. Some are:

The Blues Brothers (Dan Aykroyd & John Belushi)
Wayne's World (Mike Meyers & Dana Carvey)
The Coneheads (Dan Aykroyd, Jane Curtin & Laraine Newman)
Samurai Futaba (John Belushi)
The Festrunk Brothers ("Two Wild and Crazy Guys"-Steve Martin & Dan Aykroyd)
Emily Litella, Roseanne Roseannadanna (Gilda Radner)
Todd & Lisa (Bill Murray & Gilda Radner)
Land Shark (Chevy Chase)
The Lounge Singer (Bill Murray)

And the many skit/features:

Weekend Update, Point/Counterpoint ("Jane, you ignorant slut"), Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood, The Whiners, The Loud Family, Fernando's Hideaway, Mr. Bill, Franken & Davis, Church Chat, The Bel-Airabs, The Pat Stevens Show, etc.
