| Saturday Night Live Season 1 |

The highlights, however, are the tunes, from "The Chanukah Song" ("Paul Newman's half-Jewish. Goldie Hawn, too. Put them together--what a fine-looking Jew!") to the all-out opus "Lunchlady Land," featuring a bemoled Chris Farley rocking out like no one in a hairnet ever has to the "Slop-Sloppy-Joes" chorus.
All in all, it's a nice trip back through SNL time. When it comes to getting in touch with his inner goofy 8-year-old, Adam Sandler is comedy's big daddy. --Bob Michaels

The Amazing Adventures of Canteen Boy. Excellent!,
By Michael Crane (Orland Park, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Saturday Night Live - The Best of Adam Sandler (DVD)
Look at the title of this DVD (or VHS) and that's exactly what you get. "SNL's The Best of Adam Sandler" is a must-have for any Sandler fan. Even if you're not a big SNL fan, it's still a great collection to have.When you purchase this bad boy, what you get is about 73 minutes of pure hilarity and the chaotic genius of Mr. Sandler. Every skit is hilarious and will leave you wanting more. This is something you will want to watch over and over again. (Then, you'll watch it again!) With an all-star cast and plenty of big star cameos, this is an outstanding collection. Some of the skits included are: The Denise Show, Cajun Man, Grandma, Canteen Boy, Opera Man, Zagat's, Gap, Schmitts Gay, Herilhy Boy, Iraqui Pete, and many more. Some of the stars (and cameos) included are, David Duchovny, Rob Schneider, Alec Baldwin, Chris Farley, David Spade, Michael Keaton, and many more. My favorite skit by far has to be "The Denise Show." No matter how many times I see that skit, it never gets old. I also enjoyed the "Grandma" skit, with the very funny Michael Keaton and the late Chris Farley. (Chris Farley is probably the one who brought out the best in Sandler, as he is in many of them. We miss you Chris!) All in all, an EXCELLENT collection. Topnotch all the way on all fronts. This is a DVD (or VHS) that will entertain you over and over again. If you love Adam Sandler, or SNL, then this is the collection you've been waiting for.

Definitely Well Put Together,
By chococow@hotmail.com (Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Saturday Night Live: Best of Adam Sandler [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Occasionally Saturday Night Live makes "best of" videos when actually it's not really THEIR best, and you remember those episodes when they WERE really funny... but that was not the case. The video was very funny, and as an SNL fanatic, I know the funniest moments, and they were pretty much on there. I was impressed, and I recommend this to all. (especially adam sandler lovers)

A Sandler CelebraSHON,
By Daniel Jolley "darkgenius" (Shelby, North Carolina USA) - See all my reviews (HALL OF FAME REVIEWER) (TOP 100 REVIEWER) (VINE VOICE) (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Saturday Night Live: Best of Adam Sandler [VHS] (VHS Tape)
For me, Saturday Night Live stopped being funny enough to watch about the same time Adam Sandler left the show. This collection of Sandler moments is a little uneven and fails to include some of my favorites, but there is still plenty of great comedy to be found here. You get performances of such Sandler classics as The Chanukah Song, Lunch Lady Land, and a less famous little Christmas ditty (but, alas, no Red Hooded Sweatshirt song), not to mention his Springsteen performance of Dancing in the Dark alongside Courteney Cox. His Operaman persona is well represented with performances scattered throughout the 87 minutes of comedy mayhem. Cajun Man puts in an appearance, as does Lucy the Gap sales girl. The Canteen Boy segment is rather hard to forget, featuring the icky advances of Scout leader Alec Baldwin to Sandler's innocent persona. Proving that this comedy remains timely, Iraqi Pete shows up to draw the jeers of an American audience. There are a couple of skits of the typically inane SNL variety that seemed out of place here: the house-sitting and New York restaurant guide commercials; it is actually Chris Farley who manages to extract significant humor out of these otherwise unimpressive offerings. The selection from The Denise Show is very funny, but I would have favored the final one featuring Nicole Kidman as the better choice. I was very happy to see one of Sandler's Halloween costume suggestion skits included here; as funny as this selection is, though, I was a little disappointed that it was not the very first one-that was one of the funniest things I have ever seen in my life. All in all, there is something here for every Adam Sandler fan; it is a tribute to his comedic genius that there was not enough room on this tape to include all of his fans' favorite moments from the show.
