Worst episode of SNL ever!!!
burkemancometh24 March 2006
This is probably one of the episodes where the host himself made the show worse. What's usually the case is that the cast and the writing, not the host, make the show bad. They can have a really good guest and just mess up every other way. In this episode, you can see that the cast is somewhat irritated with Tom Green's stupid and pointless antics.

I noticed that any of the sketches which were meant to be intelligent left Tom Green out altogether, such as ones involving Bush & Gore (keep in mind this was after the election, and when the country still wasn't sure who our next president would be due to the fiasco in Florida). It seems they had to tolerate Tom Green being on the show, and told him, "You know what, just stand to the side right there while we rehearse." They shouldn't have even invited him.

Lastly, this was the famous episode where Tom Green invited both his parents and Drew Barrymore (who he was engaged to at the time) up on stage to perform a wedding ceremony. It was a really good concept, except there was some dumb gimmick where Drew Barrymore wouldn't leave her dressing room, so the show went without the wedding. I tell you, the 2000-2001 season of SNL was a good season compared to how it is now, but this episode was obviously the low point of the season.

One of the Funniest SNL's ever!!!!!

I thought this was one of the funniest episodes ever! The skits were strange but that's the point. It was Andy Kaufmanesque. The sketch with Tom Green doing the "rock around the clock" sketch for one, seemed straightforward at first then Will Ferrel came out to sing. Then Tom Green started dancing around the clock then destroyed the clock and jumped on the clock. Strange and hilarious at the same time.

The wedding sketch at the end too was great. Great concept,like she left him standing at the altar. I can't understand the Luke warm reviews at best about this episode, especially after movies like "Borat" were huge successes. Americans perhaps were not accustomed to that humor in 2000.

Andy Kaufman hosts SNL

This is the American TV my cousin told me about. Sometime during the rap sketch where Tom Green is repeating I'M A GOOD BOY I WEAR UNDIES I start to disassociate. One of the most misunderstood SNL episodes, almost as daring as the Daddy Sausage movie he made a year later. Tells the SNL formula to sit this one out. Dadaist masterwork, I took a semester and a half of college so I'm not stupid.
