EPISODE REVIEWS

Chris Farley / The Mighty Mighty Bosstones
October 25, 1997

[OPENING] Farley gets permission to host

Nothing special.

Grade: C

[MONOLOGUE] Chris Farley

Okay.

Grade: C

[COMMERCIAL] Yum Bubble Genital Herpes Gum

Sort of funny.

Grade: B

[SKETCH] Morning Latte

Best of the night that I saw. "How funny is that?" Just like the real morning programs. I almost thought it was.

Grade: A

[SKETCH] Mary Katherine Gallagher

Loved Will Ferrell's nun singing "If ya wanna be my lover ... " I liked the songs they played but the skit wasn't all that funny.

Grade: B+

[COMMERCIAL] Martha Stewart: Living promo

Great impression. I liked, "This is what I did to my ex-husband's house." Pretty funny.

Grade: A

[SKETCH] Matt Foley: Motivational Speaker

Not that funny.

Grade: C

[WEEKEND UPDATE] with Norm MacDonald

Pretty good. The Tracy Morgan bit was good.

Grade: B+

[MUSICAL GUEST] The Mighty Mighty Bosstones

Good, because I have actually heard that song.

Grade: A

[SKETCH] Goth Talk

I don't like "Goth Talk," so it was funny when the frog guys interrupted.

Grade: B

[THE LOST DEEP THOUGHTS] by Jack Handey

Not funny.

Grade: C

[SKETCH] The Sally Show

The Sally voice was not great, but over all ... good impression. I liked that line, "Well, everyone at my school had one." Chris wasn't all that funny though. Could have been better.

Grade: B+

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

Pretty funny.

Grade: B+

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

Okay ... I guess it was sort of funny.

Grade: B+

I fell asleep after this so I do not know what else was on. I will catch a repeat. Overall, it was good. The cast is very talented ... it is the writers that have not been doing well. Hope they pick it up.
