Sorry, but while I enjoy the newer SNL casts, I could care less about Justin Timberlake, so him making the list twice is overkill.

Alec Baldwin and Christopher Walken are by far the best hosts.

Two skits that were overlooked were Dan Akroyd's Bag O' Glass and Chevy Chase's Landshark.

In response to hartounian2's comment:

Chevy Chase, Dennis Miller, and Norm McDonald for the weekend update segment.

If you get a chance go on youtube and check out Jim Bruer on stage tellling the story of Norm McDonald and "The Twilight Zone sketch". One of the funniest stories I have ever heard. That story is why Norm is one of my heroes.

Tina Fey doing Sarah Palin?

Eddie Murphy doing James Brown .... "It's hot in the hot tub"

New Shimmer is a floor wax!

No,  it's a desert topping!!!

 

Of course! How could I have forgotten that one? Classic. There was also baseball player-turned commentator Chico Escuela and Gilda Radner as singer Candy Spice performing a song about Mick Jagger. Or, Laraine Newman as the child pyschiatrist. ("I hafta go to da bafroom.")

The Star Trek convention sketch in 1986 with William Shatner was the funniest sketch I've ever seen anywhere, nevermind just SNL. It should've been #1 here, how is it not even on the list?

Get a life!

Bill Murray's lounge singer who was accompanied by Paul Schaffer on piano ,John Belushi's take off on Bruce Jenner winning  the Olympic Decathalon after training on a diet of cigarettes and chocolate donuts , Dan Ackroyd and the Bass-o-matic commercial "First take a bass the whole bass etc

No Roseanne Roseanna Danna?  What are you trying to do make me sick?

I still laugh "More Cowbell", part of what makes that funny is watching the cast laugh

The synchronised swimming team sketch is my favorite all time.

The Sinatra Group, with Phil Hartmann leading Steve & Edie,  Billy Idol (played by Sting),  Sinead OConnor (called Sinbad and Uncle Fester among others as they went around the circle, and Chris Rock as a Rapper ( it's all pops and whistles from here!) is one of the all time classics.  

Celebrity Jeopardy should have been a classic,  all 3 of the contestant impersonations were tremendous.  The writing was poor however.  And Will Ferrell's Alex Trebeck missed by a mile.  Ferrell ruins everything he appears in as far as I'm concerned.  The guy should be a riot,  but he's not. 

At least half of BDC's list is crap.   I always hated those interminable Cheerleader skits most of all.  Oh look, there's Will Ferrell again.  At least he didn't make these worse, they stunk right out of the box.  I actually stopped watching the show for a couple of years because they always had one of those one, and early.  The early skits were always the best they had to offer every week, and if the Cheerleaders were the best then it was going to be a very bad week.

Forgot to mention Dueling Brandos( Belushi and Peter Boyle),The Wild and Crazy Guys(Ackroyd and Steve Martin)all of the Samuri skits; Samuri Hotel,Samuri BMOC ,Samuri Dry Cleaners,etc The word association skit with Richard Pryor and Chevy Chase

Do you remember...in 1993...when Chris Farley interviewed Paul McCartney on his pretend-talk show??

THAT WAS  A W E S O M E!!!

Colonel Angus skit.  I still don't know how they got that by the censors.

In addition to The Sinatra Group, the spoof of The McLauglin Group (John Goodman was one of the panelists) was very funny.

In response to lazrin's comment:

DAna Carvey as Derek Stevens. The first skit where he sings "Choppin' Broccoli" was funny, but the later skit in which Phil Hartman shows how by dying, his record sales will go up was even funnier.

I can still hear Carvey's voice saying, "But I'll be dead."

Anything with Phil Hartman, really. Espeically Bill Clinton jogging into the McDonals's. "Warlords!"
