Back when they did real character development on SNL. It also helps to have real talent. Those were high-water years for the show.

The 60 Minutes episode with the gag toy products or the synchronized swimming are classic.

Ferrell as Trebek or James Lipton.

Honorable mention: The Lady's Man. Whenever I rewatch those now I die laughing.

A second honorable mention to Tracy Morgan as Astronaut Jones.

There never really was an actor that played him, but the skits involving the exploits of Bill Brasky were hilarious.

I loved Sprokets.

It was always hilarious and outlandish.

This pic is from ‘Das Ist Jeopardy’ which included Chris Farley, Nicole Kidman, and Phil Hartman as the husky Bavarian she-male, Susan.



This era was literally Peak SNL.

There was another hilarious one called ‘Sprokets Dating Game’ featuring Jason Priestly, ‘Susan’, and a dominatrix.

I’m glad I was in college in the early 90’s and got to watch this era entirely.
