Can't beat Mom Jeans. I know it's not an actual skit, but I nearly died when I saw this.

And I'm also part of the newer SNL generation, so I have to stick with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler - The Bush Twins.

john belushi doing joe cocker doing 'get by with a little help'...best. impression. ever. almost as good as eddie murphy vocal impersonations (like michael jackson), but belushi **truly** nailed it...

came back to edit: this is from season ONE in 1975 and still stands up - click both plays at same time and try to sync them up and you will be amazed at just how awesome belushi was...

This is actually not an SNL skit. It is actually by the group The Lonely Island which includes Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone. Samberg is from SNL though but this has nothing to do with SNL.

If it says SNL Digital Short, and it's on SNL website... methinks it has something to do with SNL...

Touche. I guess I was wrong. But I swear I scoured the SNL website looking for this video when it first heard about it and everyone told me it had nothing to do with SNL. All liars I tell ya.

I have to give it up for the Cowbell skit with Christopher Walken - when the cast can't keep a straight face, you know it's good :))

I'm going to have to say the More Cowbell skit with Will Ferrell is the best SNL skit of all time.

The best skit of all time on SNL is the first time The Blues Brothers performed on SNL in 1978 of Soul Man!
