00:00Okay, let's see if we can get through one of these skits.
00:02Sketches? Baby, please.
00:04Okay. You ready, camera one?
00:05Oh!
00:06Oh, shit!
00:07Oh, shit!
00:08Oh, shit!
00:09You want me to break your fucking jaw?
00:11You want me to break your fucking jaw?
00:13Yeah, maybe. Maybe, motherfucker.
00:15You want me to break your fucking jaw?
00:18Uh, okay. Do we go again?
00:20Actors on their marks.
00:22My name is Lorne Michaels.
00:23I'm the producer and creator of Saturday Night.
00:26We're excited because there's never been
00:29a television show like this.
00:31Okay, but what kind of show is it, Lorne?
00:32Do you even know what the show is?
00:34Did anyone ask Edison what a lightbulb was
00:36before he harnessed electricity?
00:39Who are you in the metaphor?
00:41Chevy Chase.
00:42Gilda Radner.
00:44Dan Ayik.
00:45Uh, how the fuck do you pronounce this?
00:48Ackroyd.
00:49These can't be the right size.
00:50Yeah, you're right.
00:51They should be a little bit smaller.
00:53Oh!
00:55Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:56And action on rehearsal.
00:58And now, weekend update.
01:01Good evening.
01:03Uh, gentlemen, how long have you been standing there?
01:06Long enough.
01:08They want you to fail. They're betting on it.
01:10That's logical, Dick.
01:11That's why they're paying us all to be here.
01:13NBC makes more money playing reruns of The Tonight Show.
01:17I mean, Lorne, 90 minutes of live television
01:19by a group of 20-year-olds who have never made anything.
01:22Okay, so this is a bit?
01:24Look, I don't get half the shit that they do.
01:27You haven't locked the script.
01:28Your actors are missing.
01:29Have you seen John Belushi?
01:31Your crew is in open rebellion.
01:33Jesus Christ.
01:34Your kids aren't ready for primetime.
01:36Everyone down to the eighth floor now!
01:39Whoo-hoo!
01:40Aah!
01:42What is this?
01:43That was kind of exciting.
01:45We need to let the audience in.
01:46Oh, you don't.
01:48Aah!
01:49What the hell is happening?
01:50Oh!
01:51I'm not gonna be able to protect you.
01:52Look out for the bus!
01:57We just have to make it to air.
01:59Live from New York!
02:02The writers tied a belt around Big Bird's neck
02:05and hung him from my dressing room door.
02:07Hey, I heard about Big Bird.
02:09So sorry.
02:10Autoerotic asphyxiation, who knew?
