When SNL was funny... now on iTunes

Remember the good ol' days of Saturday Night Live? You can. On your video iPod, or just on your computer.
This week, iTunes released all sorts of video clips that span the last 30 years of Saturday Night Live. You
can purchase individual sketches, including The Hanukkah Song, Wake Up and Smile, Schwetty
Balls, Motivational Speaker, plus a few oldies-but-goodies like Word Association with Chevy
Chase and Richard Pryor, and King Tut with Steve Martin. There are also all sorts of commercial parodies such
as Colon Blow, Oops I Crapped My Pants, and Mom Jeans (what? no Clear Gravy?). You
really have to love those sketches, though, because they each cost $2. The collection is by no means complete, but it
looks as though SNL is just getting started. For instance, I didn't see any of the Wayne's World or Church
Lady sketches available for individual purchase. However, those are included on the "Best Of"
compilations that are also available for download, for $10.TV Squad Hot Topics
