Here's what I remember. Sarah Palin’s appearance on SNL did great things for their ratings, but I think it undermines the show.It defangs their satire; it tells us it’s all a harmless joke (a joke that she’s in on). NRA Theater. I remember the turnstiles in the Willie Horton ad, representative of Michael Dukakis’s commitment to releasing black rapists and murderers. The chat was one part Saturday Night Live skit, one part time machine. I LOVE the opening skit. ... when George HW Bush turned Willie Horton — a Massachusetts prisoner who raped a … Donna Rice (Victoria Jackson) boogies with convict Willie Horton, who thanks Dukakis for the furlough. SNL has been in decline for decades, once it became part of the mainstream and lost its purpose. ... many mistakes but most experts generally agree that the single most crushing moment for his came from the infamous “Willie Horton commercial.” So fantastic. Unfortunately, the last we see of Lovitz’s Dukakis (one of more underrated political impressions in the show’s history) Saturday Night Live FAQ: Recurring Characters ===== Saturday Night Recurring Characters is a list of recurring characters from NBC's Saturday Night. There is an SNL skit here from that time, where the candidates are vying with each other to not be the nominee and go down in flames to Bush. I have tried to limit the list to recurring characters, but some of the single appearance characters have been memorable enough to list them anyway. Dukakis After Dark is also another stone-cold classic. One of the most funniest moments in the campaign (as they often did in those days) came from a brilliant Saturday Night Live skit as the campaign was winding down. In the SNL skit “Dukakis After Dark,” political scandal objects Willie Horton and Donna Rice ask the Democratic presidential candidate to “join us for some dirty dancing.” (He declines.) So begins the most memorable Clinton sketch of Phil’s SNL tenure and arguably the show’s history. Back in 1993, Clinton signed into law the Brady Bill which required a 5 day waiting period to get a gun, pending a background check. Delta Burke... Nancy: Dana Carvey... Hank: Chris Farley... Eddie: Phil Hartman Joan Baez (Nora Dunn), sings of unilateral disarmament, abortion on demand, and “wars we lose or win.” At the end Dukakis says what hurt the Democrats “is the fact that Reaganomics works. Kevin Nealon was married to Victoria Jackson (I think) and Farley was their son. I don't remember a "Willie Horton" moment, but it was a while ago. Phil is gold, as always. SNL did a great sketch on this before the bill passed when it was in the news being voted on.
