Haven't scrolled through this yet, but am hoping to see some old classics. I don't really watch the show much anymore, but when I have it still gives me a chuckle or two.

Let's see. The Bassomatic sketch. The Swinging Czech brothers. The Church Lady. The Chevy Chase/Richard Pryor employment sketch and Chevy doing Weekend Update while mocking Jane as she ranted on about something.

"The Greginator......makin copies..."
"My wife, Morgan Fairchild..."
I haven't watched that in a loooong time.
