The promo copies of albums that radio stations would get actually used to have labels on the front that listed exactly how long the intro was so they could cue it up and know exactly how much time they had to hit the post before the lyrics started. Some call it a lost art but the reality is all you needed was a stopwatch and a basic understanding of what you wanted to say and the clock pretty much dictates the little bit of improvisation you are allotted. So even if it was their first time hearing the song, they had a cheat sheet.

I remember staying up late to watch SCTV right after SNL, and this was just pure genius. The funniest part other than when he does Michael's voice at the end, is when he doesn't have time to put the headphones on and just cups his ears with his hands. I wanted to be Rick Moranis... A friend of mine and I used to improvise Bob and Doug to entertain the other kids at school. My life would not have been the same growing up without SCTV. I love all those guys with all my heart, I miss John, but later was fortunate to have a teacher at Second City who worked with and directed the original cast in Canada and when they came down to Chicago, including John and Gilda, et al. There will never be anything remotely like SCTV again...

My wife and I go way back to April 1974 with Michael McDonald, when we first saw him in concert with the original Steely Dan lineup where he was a backing vocalist and Fender Rhodes piano player. One year later his voice dominated the chorus of their song "Any World (That I'm Welcome To)" on the "Katy Lied" album. He's been stealing the thunder from lead vocalists ever since. Rick Moranis kills in this sketch.

A buddy of mine watched SCTV religiously each week, we were 20-somthing and 40-something years later I will never forget nor forget to watch me some SCTV in order to keep my mind right about what is classy and classic comedy. What a repertoire of one-liners was built, that creep into my conversations at the appropriate moments, usually a perfect set-up for each one, too.
