What's the greatest SNL skit of all time?

After so many years on the air, it's difficult to pick what may be the greatest skit Saturday Night Live has ever done. For me, I think it has to be "Massive Headwound Harry" with Dana Carvey. So unexpected, and the results are priceless.

Now, I'm not talking about recurring characters that lost their luster after being overused (Wayne's World, MacGruber, Pat, etc.) I'm talking about one-off skits that were instant classics.

Justin Timberlake and Beyonce's skit has over 7,000,000 views on youtube, but my favorite is Christopher Walken's "More Cowbell."

My personal favorite is probably the first appearance of Chris Farley as Matt Foley, motivational speaker.

I'm partial to old school SNL: Samurai Delicatessen is good.

ok i have three. The Freakin' Guiliani skit (starring Guiliani as the cab driver) I can't seem to find a link to it.

I also love any Jeopardy skit with Darrell Hammond playing Sean Connery. V and Conundrum are ones that are must listens. And i find "the rapists" hysterical.

I am also partial to David Duchovny so i really love his cheerleader skit.

Chris Farley was the king... My favorite 1-off skit of all time was the bit with Patrick Swayze and Chris Farley doing a dance off to be a Chippendale. Here's the link to decide for yourself: http://tinyurl.com/eq832
