EPISODE REVIEWS

Chris Farley / The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
October 25, 1997

[OPENING] Farley gets permission to host

Funny, especially Farley jumping on the desk.

Rating: 6 out of 10

[MONOLOGUE] Chris Farley

Funny, with Chris Rock and Tim Meadows thinking he was host. Farley and Gasteyer "having sex" was a funny addition.

Rating: 7 out of 10

[COMMERCIAL] Yum Bubble Genital Herpes Gum

Sick yet funny. Maybe a little too overboard.

Rating: 7 out of 10

[SKETCH] Morning Latte

Funny, but went downhill, but recovered with Farley clashing out at Oteri at the end.

Rating: 7.5 out of 10

[SKETCH] Mary Katherine Gallagher

Dumb. I really hate this sketch it just bores me constantly, just give it up.

Rating: 4 out of 10

[COMMERCIAL] Martha Stewart: Living promo

Funny with her sadistic Halloween topics.

Rating: 8 out of 10

[SKETCH] Matt Foley: Motivational Speaker

Starting to suck but then recovered. Farley is getting a little old with this character.

Rating: 7 out of 10

[WEEKEND UPDATE] with Norm MacDonald

Funny at points but Tracy Morgan being "the other black guy" was funny.

Rating: 7 out of 10

[MUSICAL GUEST] The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

They were okay, I really don't like that song though.

Rating: 6 out of 10

[SKETCH] Goth Talk

Always funny, especially with Ferrell in the pool. I always love this sketch.

Rating: 8 out of 10

[THE LOST DEEP THOUGHTS] by Jack Handey

Always funny, but a little redundant to bring it back this season.

Rating: 6 out of 10

[SKETCH] The Sally Show

Hilarious with Farley as a 3 year old!

Rating: 10 out of 10

[SKETCH] Hank Williams Jr. records Monday Night Football song

Boring. 'Nuff said.

Rating: 4 out of 10

[SKETCH] The Super Fans ... where are they now?

Hilarious, the whole Ditka-Bears thing. I just couldn't believe they got Ditka to say that the Saints suck.

Rating: 9 out of 10

[SKETCH] El Nino fights on The Weather Channel

A big stretch and I didn't even smirk at this one.

Rating: 1 out of 10

OVERALL:

Funny but disappointing at times.

Rating: 7.5 out of 10
