Can't see it (my browser don't have the Quicktime plugin), but it can't be worse than this other one...

Oh, just seen it now. It's that legendary SNL skit, had heard of it before but never seen it myself. Great stuff.

LOL Now we have Shatner at his best and at his worst in the same thread.

I saw it when it first aired. I remember Shatner's opening monologue. He ended it by saying, "I hope Star Trek fans really good sports. If they aren't... I'm in big trouble!" Then went directly into the Get-A-Life sketch. I couldn't appreciate as much as I can now, but I was laughing hard that night.

I saw it when it first aired too. Hanging out with some college friends who were big Star Trek fans too. They loved it.

Of course, now I hang out with a Star Trek fan so extreme he painted his sailboat to look like a warp nacelle. And yeah, he still thinks it's one of the best SNL skits.

Hey Neville,

I know you didn't mean it but your link help me solve one of the many obscure references in the cartoon "Family Guy". In that cartoon, Stewie was smoking a cigarette and doing Rocket Man.

Unwanted side effect, really, because I don't wath "Family man". I don't think it's even available in my country, unless you have sat TV.

Yeah- that Stewie bit was spot-on.

This thread also needs this one:

The more I look to that second clip the more I believe that cigarette is not exactly a cigarette...

Despite Mr. Shatner's "interpretation", I still have no idea what that song means.

Was that serious? I showed that clip to my parents and they refused to believe that it wasn't some kind of comedy sketch.
