Does anyone know which two dress sketches are included here?

One is a Little Sleuths sketch from the Hugh Jackman episode, the other is one that ended up at the strike show -- Here done with LeBron James.

Just got this DVD and watched it and I must say I am kinda disappointed MAINLY because the scenes that were from before SNL went widescreen are ridiculously cropped so that it's like you have a full black frame around the whole screen, which I found really annoying. I did like the 2 dress sketches, though, and that's pretty much the thing I always look most forward to watching on the best ofs. The one with LeBron James was weird. Which is good. The WU outtakes were from the online exclusive one they posted about a month ago and some more other ones. I give it about a C. Also, what's up with no audition tape and no tv appearance?? Those are always fun, if not at least interesting. C-. Still need to hear the commentary at some point. Bah.

Aw, we missed out on seeing the Little Sleuths again? Damn.

Amazingly when I was ordering those other SNL DVD's from the ioffer.com site I totally forgot about this

I really hope that the commentary is good. I was disappointed in what they showed on TV.

hmm...is it just me or does anyone else NOT remember "Jo Jo the Valet" from Drew Barrymores' 2007 episode being shown when this aired on NBC in April?

[Shaq Plaque]

There's usually two or three sketches that make the DVD that aren't on the network airing.

[BillBrasky]

Yeah, the funny thing is that in the commentary, Amy can't remember if the JoJo sketch aired on the live show or not
When she's watching it, it's obvious she's seeing it for the first time in a long time.

I remember it only because I have a recording of that show, and Kristen played the other WASP. But I think the Lilliputian sketch described here might've been better! It sounds better. http://snltranscripts.jt.org/06/06l.phtml
