Don't forget Pee Wee's Playhouse, and earlier Paul Reuben shows. Even redeemable as a pirate on a children's show..(well, granted, pirates in general are always redeemable.)

His best moment was him as Reagan during the skit where he was a manic, mafia type guy behind the scenes, but that sweet old man to the press. (This was in the midst of the Iran-Contra scandal.)

From the Shales/Miller book:

"Jon Lovitz:

"I'll tell you a story about Phil. You know, we do that sketch Jim Downey wrote, 'Tarzan, Tonto, and Frankenstein.' So they did it once where it was like a talk show and Nora Dunn was doing the 'Pat Stevens Show' with Tarzan, Tonto, and Frankenstein. And Phil is Frankenstein and all of a sudden he starts laughing, right, like he just completely broke up -- ha ha, you know, he laughed out loud. And then he stopped.

"And then about fifteen seconds later, he just completely lost it. So then of course we all started laughing, because he's just losing it. And I'm thinking, 'What is he doing? We're on live television. It's not the Groundlings.' . . . So afterward I asked him, I said, 'What happened? What was so funny?' So he said, well, he was sitting there as Frankenstein and something happened, and thinking about how silly the sketch was, you know, just the idea of it made him laugh all of a sudden. So he started laughing. And then he stopped, right? And then, he said, he was sitting there thinking how funny it must have looked to see Frankenstein laugh like that. And then that just made him like lose it."

Sadly, I only know his work on NewsRadio and the Simpsons - we never really got SNL here. Are there any box set compilations of classic SNL stuff on DVD by any chance? I would really love some.

Ed OTM about the Zapp Braningan thing too. That was the plan, that Groening wanted him for the voice, but then he passed away, so when Billy West showed them the voice he could do for it they were flabbergasted.

Causistry, his wikipedia entry says he designed that. Also:

Hartman grew up in Connecticut and L.A., where he pursued a career in graphic art. (Hartman designed several album covers, including Steely Dan's Aja, as well as a logo for Crosby, Stills and Nash.)

from http://www.laweekly.com/ink/98/28/tv-shulman.php

I disagree though that Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer is a stupid sketch idea. I mean that's just it though, its stupidity is part of its hilarity. But it's also a brilliant send-up of "I'm just a poor country lawyer" schtick.

How heart-breaking is that odd sketch with and Jan Hooks where she plays an old woman that goes to a safety deposit box to reminisce? She puts on some pearls or something and is transformed into a young woman and dances with Phil Hartman while they sing a duet, and then at the end she becomes the old woman again, and the bank security guard puts his hand on her shoulder and its Phil as an old man...? This summary doesn't really do it justice, but when they aired it after Phil's death there wasn't a dry eye in (my) house.

Belushi has a sketch like this, too, where he's dressed like an old man with a cane, surveying the graves of his SNL cast members. He says something like, "Pity.. I always thought I'd be the first to go."

Both of them were shot on actual film, too, and weren't performed in front of an audience, so (appropriately, it turns out) there's no laughter.

Anal Retentive Chef

Cooking with The Anal Retentive Chef

Gene ... Phil Hartman

[open on the Anal Retentive Chef's tidy kitchen]

Gene: Hello! And welcome to "The Anal Retentive Chef"! I'm Gene. Today, we're going to be making Pepper Steak. Now, you're going to need: one large bell pepper, three onions, exactly two inches in diameter, and 17 1/3 ounces of lean beef cut into 43 pieces. Okay, let's get started.
Now, I've already cut up my bell pepper. Look at this. [holds up bowl] Isn't this nice? See how all the pieces are the same size? People try to tell you that the secret to Pepper Steak is the seasoning - but we know differently, don't we? Uh-huh. It's getting all the pieces the same size. And that's what I've done here. Beauti ... uh-oh! [pulls out piece of pepper] This one's a little bigger than the rest, so we'll just discard that one. [pulls out another piece] And I don't think this little wrinkly one belongs in here. [pulls out another] And this ... well, I just don't like the look of that one at all. Alright, as a matter of fact, why don't we just start over and throw this out? [places bowl on counter]

And how do we throw things out? Okay. We take our paper towel, two pieces, unbroken, lay it out neatly, dump the refuse inside, arranged neatly ... [assembles the garbage] ... let's take these little nasties we separated earlier, put that back ... fold over carefully, making sure the corners are square ... and ... we take a piece of aluminum foil, and we place our refuse onto the foil, and fold over very carefully - this way, it won't leak onto the other garbage. Aluminum foil is such a miracle product! It's really an extraordinary product. Alright, and then we take a brown, paper sandwich bag ... [opens bag] ...place the refuse inside ... [drops it in] ...and ... oh no, this bag is torn.. [looks around] Well ... no, that's alright. We'll just fold over, and no one will see. We'll fold it over twice to be careful ... then we get our tape. [grabs tape, which is naturally covered in a cozy] And, we tape it shut - be very careful to center the tape on the bag. I like to keep my tape dispenser right here on the counter. There we go! [holds up bag] All ready for the trash. Now that's some garbage you can live with! [laughs]
Alright, I noticed some of you were admiring my tape dispenser cozy. Isn't that pretty? I made it myself, out of toothpicks, felt, plain old buckroom, a couple of pearl buttons and some eyelets. Now, isn't that better than looking at an old tape dispenser? I think so! Alright. Let's set this over here. [places tape dispenser onto the counter next to the sink, behind him]

Okay, where were we? We were going to dice the bell pepper. But ... oh ... [thinking] ... so, we're going to need our chopping block ... [pulls it out] But we can't put that down, because there's some water there from the bell pepper, so let's clean that up. As a matter of fact, this stovetop could use a lick and a promise while we're at it! So, how do we clean? We take our bucket ... but, first, let's remove the food products, because we don't want to get any caustic substances on the food, of course. [places food products on the counter next to the sink, behind him] Place these neatly in the background - this floor will be cleaned later.
Okay, so we're ready to clean. [pulls up mop bucket] We've got our glove, to protect us - we don't want to ruin our manicure. And we've got a clean white cloth, and abrasive cleanser - none of that non-abrasive cleanser for us, it's good old-fashioned cleanser. That'll get us started, I think I'll clean these cabinets while I'm at it. And, oh! Look at this. [points to the stove] Aluminum foil is filthy! I'm going to have to replace that. So, we might as well pull that up right now. [closing music starts up] I don't when I cleaned that up last, I'd hate to think. And, God knows what those mopboards look like. But! We start at the top, and clean down, so as not to drip ...

Now this is something the other tour guides won't tell you. In this particular cell-block, Machine Gun Kelly had what we call in the prison system, a "bitch". And one night in a jealous rage Kelly took a make-shift knife or "shiv", and cut out the bitch's eyes. And as if this wasn't enough retribution for Kelly, the next day he and four other inmates took turns pissing into the bitch's ocular cavities.
This way to the cafeteria!

AVC: Do you have a definitive Phil Hartman story?

MT: Um. [Long pause.] I don’t know. I do remember one thing he said to me. Joe Rogan was being so fucking mean to me one day—and mostly we were all friends, but Joe could be a weirdo—and I was sort of upset about it, so I was just sitting over in the corner. And Phil came over and put his arm around me, and he said, “You know, I just want to tell you you’re loved.” Isn’t that really nice? I know you expected me to tell some wacky story about Phil, but he was like that, too. He just put his arm around me and said that. He was so sweet. He was a really nice man.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Sunday, 24 September 2023 23:22 (seven months ago) link

Yeah, looking again at Newsradio in recent years and it's pretty much all there already, except his character is generally regarded by the show as an idiot and tool.

an icon of a worried-looking, long-haired, bespectacled man (C. Grisso/McCain), Sunday, 24 September 2023 23:55 (seven months ago) link

Wasnt he an afterthought/change of actor anyway? ISTR the pilot had anoter guy.

Stoop Crone (Trayce), Monday, 25 September 2023 00:24 (seven months ago) link

Sort of. They originally cast Ray Romano as the handyman/tech guy, but he was dismissed before the pilot was filmed, and was replaced by an actor named Greg Lee, who was then replaced by Rogan when the series was picked up. Lee's character was a little different from Rogan's, which was probably tailored to his existing style (Rogan had already been doing standup and had other similar TV roles)

an icon of a worried-looking, long-haired, bespectacled man (C. Grisso/McCain), Monday, 25 September 2023 00:58 (seven months ago) link

IIRC Rogan's character is depicted and constantly called out as a paranoid nut who's into crazy conspiracies. Anyway, that show has one of the craziest casts - it's pretty cool how they were able to tap into the best-known ensembles from that era due to the connections each actor had with either SNL, Kids in the Hall, the Ben Stiller Show, etc. with all of their other alum doing good guest turns, but so many of the main cast had these ridiculous fates. I guess everyone knew Andy Dick was a nutty creep, but Hartman getting murdered, Foley's horrendous divorce and Rogan's rise to fame, influence and billions of dollars....who would've guessed.
