out of those 3? SNL by far.
but if you were to pick from all sketch comedy, i would choose Kids in the Hall Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely. - Lord Acton | |

Is it that funny? if you like very sharp pointed social satire that tends to be a bit dry witted and bizarre, then it is really worth checking out. i freaking worshiop it. best small cast sketch comedy i have ever seen Power tends to corrupt; absolute power corrupts absolutely. - Lord Acton | |

Is it that funny? if you like very sharp pointed social satire that tends to be a bit dry witted and bizarre, then it is really worth checking out. i freaking worshiop it. best small cast sketch comedy i have ever seen Yay for Canada! Absolutely bizarre and hilarious! Of this list, I'd pick SNL, but I think all of those choices are poor. My top 3 list of Parody/Satire shows (no order) 1. Monty Python's Flying Circus 2. Kids in the Hall 3. Daily Show w/Jon Stewart (sans the trendy celebrity appearances. When they get editors, journalists, and politicians, the discussion is great. Show is a little one sided though, I must admit) Other note: I think SNL was excellent in its early days, and then again from the period of 1989-1994. In recent years, Will Ferrell was fantastic, but he's gone now. The rest of the cast is mediocre at BEST. Horatio Sans makes an amusing goofy fat guy. Will Sasso was EXCELLENT on MADTV, especially is Kenny Rogers, Randy Newman, and Steven Segal impersonations, and the Michael Jackson impersonator was also very funny. For the most part though, MADTV irritates me. [This message was edited Thu Jun 26 13:04:16 PDT 2003 by savoirfaire] "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance.

I had a feeling I'd hear something like that from the European end but I thought I'd offend you if I listed Benny Hill. I should have put down Monty Python though... -------------------------------------------------

Well my vote out of your 3 listed at the top would be Sat. Night Live... but of course it always depended very much who was on it etc - some of the skits were very hit and miss. | |
