22 ‘Saturday Night Live’ Deep Cuts That Are Secretly Brilliant
These are some of the less popular sketches that people can’t stop quoting — even if no one else has any idea what they’re talking about
Since its debut in 1975, Saturday Night Live has provided endless amounts of now ubiquitous cultural references. Case in point: When you drop a “schwing!” in conversation or demand “more cowbell” in a Christopher Walken voice, most people know what it means.
Still, as Twitter user Sue Ellen Mitski (see what she did there?) pointed out in a recent tweet, almost everyone has one SNL sketch that they cannot stop quoting, despite the fact that no one else knows what the hell they’re talking about.
Don't Miss
So, whether you’re just trying to sharpen up on your references for a comedy nerd-off, or want to laugh at a few lesser-known Will Ferrell bits, these are Saturday Night Live’s most unforgettable moments… that you probably forgot.
