I’m reminded of (I think) Bobcat Goldthwait’s joke about the original TH video, from his standup around 1986…
“You may ask yourself ‘Why such a big suit?’”
“And you may ask yourself ‘Doesn’t this store have any mirrors?’”
We watched that, laughed a lot, then I came back here. Read your comment again and turned to my partner and asked “What subtitles?” So then we went back and watched it again with CC turn on … Oh Dear Gods! Yeah, that was even funnier. Thank you!

That was Rich Hall on SNL. Thanks to NBC and Lorne Michaels’ “protection of The Brand”, the video’s not easily searchable. I’m sure that by making sure no one can ever share these 30 year old sketches, they’re only increasing the popularity and extended longevity of The Brand, preserved as if in amber for no future generations to enjoy.
Hall’s spoof is noted here:
