well, all of the SCTV stuff on DVD has been NBC era stuff (i.e. canned laughter), so you'll probably be disappointed.

>so I can finally see the entirety of the "INDIRA!" skit.

What have you seen? Cuz I think the sketch runs 90 seconds tops. It's a precise parody of a TV ad for the Broadway "Evita" that ran ad nauseum in the New York area circa 1980.

At my college humor mag, we always did a Monday postmortem on Friday's SCTV.

No only Shout Factory DVDs. I'll PayPal someone $5 if they can find "Canadian Gaffes and Practical Amusements" online

Am I remembering incorrectly or did Eugene Levy once sing “Papa Loves Mambo” in Perry Como character, maybe at a roller disco.

I guess that song was not part of “Perry Como: Still Alice.” Seems like that was the only time Eugene Levy did that character, is that correct?

They should have played it at Morbs’s memorial.

Found out this morning that Rosemary Radcliffe, who was part of SCTV for a few years but not the TV show (she was on King of Kensington--ultra-Canadian thing), lives in St. Marys, where I am--slightly larger than Melonville.
