My all-time favorite moment of (muted) bluster from Candy is his reaction to the "You" feminist play at 6:24 here:
"This is a bad play."

Kingfish, you know Floyd Robertson the newsreader and Count Floyd were the same character, right? Count Floyd was a weekend gig Robertson did to make ends meet -- the self-loathing Count and the alcoholic self-deluded 'serious journalist' were one really well-written package.

Marcie Odette, ex Solid Gold Dancer is my favorite. The routine on Dusty Towne's Christmas Special is still one of my favorite things EVER

Surprised Andrea Martin finished ahead of Catherine O'Hara, and myself, I'd move Levy up. Smart vote distribution, though. As many of us pointed out, so difficult.

Every one of these SCTV clips posted to advocate for one of the cast members reminded me of the brilliance of another one. So I think we call this a tie.

Ryan Seacrest is an SCTV sketch character come to life. like a cross between Dick Clark, Merv Griffin and Johnny LaRue

I love that John Candy didn't even know what Divine's voice sounded like, but just took an educated guess from pics of him.
