Hollywood Minute

Donna Pearl…..Victoria Jackson
Frank Sinatra…..Phil Hartman
Sammy Davis, Jr……Tim Meadows


Donna Pearl: Hi! i’m Donna Pearl. Moviegoers are flocking to see the re-release of the 1960 epic, “Spartacus”. This restored version includes a controversial nude bathing scene, originlaly cut because its homosexual overotnes were considered too racy for 60’s audiences. Soon, ticket-buyers will be able to view another restored classic from 1960 – “Ocean’s 11”, the Vegas heist film, starring Frank Sinatra’s Rat Pack. This new version includes this scene with a young Frank Sinatra, and a young Sammy Davis, Jr.

[ cut to video footage of Frank rubbing Sammy’s back as he lounges in ahot tub ]

Frank Sinatra: Is that too hard?

Sammy Davis, Jr.: No, man, it’s heaven.

Frank Sinatra: I don’t know.. sitting here with you now – I’ve got some kooky thoughts knocking around in my brain!

Sammy Davis, Jr.: What are you talking about, man?

Frank Sinatra: Your skin.. your skin is like.. what I’m trying to say is.. if you got out of this tub and put on a dress, I’d take you out for the biggest steak you’ve ever seen! So, do I belong in a rubber orom, or what?

Sammy Davis, Jr.: No, man. Some cats dig chicks, and some catsdig other cats. And if it’s alright with you, then it’s alright with the Man Upstairs.

Frank Sinatra: Hey. Stay in there much longer, and you’re gonnalook like a raisin!

[ Sammy laughs, as Frank wraps him in a towel and sneaks a peek at hislower half – scene zooms off ]

Donna Pearl: This has been Donna Pearl, with a “Hollywood Minute”!

Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey


Deep Thoughts by Jack Handey


Jack Handey V/O:
He was a cowboy, mister, and he loved the land.
He loved it so much he made a woman out of dirt and married her.
But when he kissed her, she disintegrated.
Later, at the funeral, when the preacher said, “Dust to dust,”
some people laughed, and the cowboy shot them.
At his hanging, he told the others,
“I’ll be waiting for you in heaven – with a gun.”

Balz-Off


Balz-Off

Wife…..Jan Hooks
Husband…..Kevin Nealon


Wife: [ entering house ] When I started back to work, there were not enough hours in the day. It seemed that life was divided between my job and my family. I was exhausted and run-down. So I asked my doctor hat to do, and he recommended this.. [ holds up package ] .. Balz-off.

Husband: Hi, honey! I got off work early, so I came straight home and fixed dinner. But don’t get up – just relax!

Wife: Non-prescription Balz-Off is safe, gentle to the stomach, and it works.

Husband: Here you go.

Wife: Why, thank you, honey!

Husband: Can I get you anything else?

Wife: [ as phone rings ] You can get the phone!

Husband: Sure, I’d love to. [ answers phone ]

Wife: Balz-off’s time-release formula last a full twenty-four hours. Two Balz-off tablets with breakfast, and he’s home all evening and glad to be there.

Husband: [ covers mouthpiece of phone ] It’s your mother.

Wife: I don’t want to talk to her.

Husband: She’s busy. Oh, no problem, I would love to take you to the florist.

Wife: It’s easy to use, and it’s effective. Here’s how Balz-off works: [ over silhoette of human male ] Hormonal signals build up here, in the freedom center. These signals are sent to the brain, where they cause pressure and confusion. Balz-Off effectively blocks these signals, eliminating problem behavior before it reaches the brain.

Husband: Dinner’s on the table.

Wife: Thanks. Hey.. isn’t tonight your poker night.

Husband: Yeah, but.. that’s just an excuse to drink beer, smoke big, smelly cigars and talk about women. I don’t think I need that.

Wife: Oh, honey, I’m so proud of you.

Announcer: New, prescription-strength Balz-Off. In regular, and new Italian strength.

    Nico Tenelli: Now, listen to me…

    Richmeister: Nico, got me by my ankles! The anklemeister!

    Nico Tenelli: Listen to me carefully. I don’t want you to talk about anything to me anymore, I don’t want you to say my name anymore, you hear me?

    Pumping Up With Hans & Franz

    Pumping Up With Hans & Franz

    Hans…..Dana Carvey
    Franz…..Kevin Nealon
    Himself…..Steven Seagal


    Announcer: Good evening, and welcome again to “PumpingUp With Hanz & Franz”, the informative training program for the serious weightlifter.

    Together: Welcome! We’re back!

    Hans: Alright. Once again, I am Hans…

    Franz: And I am Franz. And we just want to…

    Together: pump… [They clap]…you up!

    Hans: Alright.

    Franz: Alright, first of all, let’s clear something up. You know, many people have accused us of being involved with steroids.

    Hans: Ja. They are right! But let me explain—to us, those steroids are something different!

    Franz: Ja. They are the people who stop on the street and stare at our amazing pumpitude!

    Hans: Hence, we call them Steroids!

    Franz: Alright. Enough talk. We’re not here to talk. We’re here to…

    Together: pump… [They clap]…you up!

    Franz: You know, the big news this summer is, our cousin Arnold is coming out with a new blockbuster action movie. Doesn’t surprise us.

    Hans: Ja. You know, Arnold is sure to beat out all the competition from these other second-rate action-movie stars!

    Franz: ie, Sylvester Stallone, Rambo, Rocky…You know, all those guys!

    Hans: That’s right, you know—Charles Bronson Pinchot, all of them! You know, it’s a laugh to even compare them to Arnold! Look at me, Franz; I am laughing!

    Franz: Ja! So am I, Hans!

    [They laugh on, oblivious to the presence of Steven Seagal who has just walked up behind them and simply stands there]

    Hans: Ja, we are laughing—And what about this guy, Steven Seagal?

    Franz: Ja! Hear me now and believe me later…Arnold could easily rip Steven Seagal’s skinny little arms off and use them as dental floss!

    Hans: Ja, unwaxed! [They mime flossing their teeth, then suddenly notice Seagal for the first time] Mr. Seagal! I didn’t see you!

    Steven Seagal: I couldn’t help overhearing what you guys were saying, you know…

    Hans: Oh, you’re so quiet; how long were you back there? We were just talking…

    Steven Seagal: Look, fellas—let’s not confuse the issue here. I don’t wanna compare myself to these other stars; they’re great and everything like that. But what I do is unique…You see, I follow—Zen.

    Hans: Oh, we know Zen. First we lift a barbell…

    Franz: …Zen we lift another…

    Hans: …Zen another…

    Franz: …Zen another…and Zen another…

    Hans: …And Zen another…

    Franz: …And Zen we are done.

    Steven Seagal: Nah, I don’t think you guys understand what I’m talking about; maybe I could demonstrate. I’d like to hold my little finger out and let you guys push on it.

    Franz: Ah—Well, before you make this rash decision, maybe you should see what you’re up against.

    Hans: Ja. Take a look, Steven…

    [Hans and Franz flex their muscles superiorly, although Seagal seems impressed]

    Hans & Franz: [adlibs of “Now what do you think about that?”]

    Steven Seagal: Looks to me like you guys are, like, really constipated; maybe you could drink some prune juice or something. I don’t know who taught you that stuff, but it looks kind of silly. You know what I’m saying?

    Hans: All right, put it out…Go! [Seagal holds out the little finger on his right hand; Hans and Franz proceed to push on it but can’t budge it an inch] All right—Push, Franz!

    Franz: I am pushing, Hans! But Steven’s baby finger is too strong!!

    Hans: It’s a Super-Baby-Finger!! [They stop to catch their wind] I’m very impressed, Mr. Seagal; maybe we misjudged you.

    Franz: Ja, maybe you’re not a girlie-man after all, Mr. Seagal.

    Steven Seagal: Sure thing; anytime, fellas…Just try and remember the Zen of things, okay? Have a nice one.

    Franz: Ah—certainly, Mr. Seagal. Good day. [Seagal departs]

    Hans: You know, Franz, Steven’s pinkie has taught us a great lesson.

    Franz: Ja, maybe there would be a better way to pummel a girlie-man than muscle against flab.

    Hans: Fist against poop-filled diaper.

    Franz: Are you thinking what I’m thinking…?

    [Segue into the “Pumping Up” opening sequence, but with the life-size cutouts of Arnold Schwarzenegger replaced by those of Steven Seagal. Moreover, Hans and Franz both wear ponytails and black leather jackets;they also talk in Seagal-like monotones]

    Together: Welcome. We’re back.

    Hans: Once again, I’m Hans.

    Franz: Ja, and I’m Franz.

    Togeter: And we just want to pump… [They lightly bring the tips of their pinkies together]…you up.

    [Segue back to the “Pumping Up” set as we know it, with the life-size Arnold Schwarzenegger cutouts]

    Hans: …On second thought, I would hate to use just my pinkie and not the rest of these god-like muscles!

    Franz: …Ja! Me too, exactly! Mind over matter is great, but let’s not forget muscle over matter!

    [They flex some more, then…]

    Together: Live from New York, it’s Saturday… [Theyclap]…Night!

    Bob Dylan…..Dana Carvey


    Casey Kasem: Hello, I’m Casey Kasem. You know, tonight in the #1 spot, a song for a good cause. A cause most people don’t even think about. It all began when TV and radio personality, Rick Dees, and retro-psychadelic singer, Lenny Kravitz, walked into a famous L.A. bistro. They ordered a Caeser salad. But the famous chef told the hungry duo he couldn’t prepare a Caeser salad because the raw eggs so vital to the dressing were not from free-range chickens. Rick Dees flew into a rage, saying, “Chickens are like you and me, except they’re chickens.” He and Kravitz called recent Oscar winner, Whoopi Goldberg. She said, “Listen, my man, we got to do something.. something for the millions of chickens all over the country who live in tiny, overcrowded pens.” Together, they gathered some of the biggest names in the music business. The result, you’re about to see. The title is simple: “Musicians For Free-Range Chickens”.

    [ cut to recording studio ]

    Rick Dees: Okay, everybody.. let’s do it!

    Whoopi Goldberg: Yea-eah!

    [ music starts ]

    Michael Bolton:
    “We’ve turned our backs too long
    We see that something’s wrong.”

    Michael Bolton & Lenny Kravitz:
    “There needs to be some changes made.”

    Kenny Rogers:
    “Now, we just can’t ignore
    The wrongs we’ve done before!”

    Kenny Rogers & Diana Ross:
    “To you, and every egg you made!”

    Carnie Wilson:
    “You start inside a shell
    You never knew the hell.”

    Mick Jagger:
    “That was waiting here for you.”

    Michael Bolton:
    “Now we understand..”

    Axl Rose & Lenny Kravitz:
    “..you need a helping ha-and!”

    Cyndi Lauper:
    “So, let us make it clear to you-ou!”

    Chorus:
    “Raise your hands, raise your voice,
    Give the chickens another choice,
    Join with me, set them free,
    Brothers and sisters, let the chickens be.”

    Michael Bolton:
    “Mister Farmer, take that feed
    To the chicken’s throa-oat.”

    Axl Rose:
    “To the chicken’s throa-oat!”

    Lenny Kravitz:
    “Let’s build a world
    where cages don’t exist.”

    Diana Ross:
    “Tell the children
    To tell the world
    To tell the chickens that we are on our way!
    So, everybody
    I want you to put your hands up like this!
    Bring ’em up like this!
    I love you! Don’t touch me, I love you!”

    Chorus:
    “Raise your hands, raise your voice,
    Give the chickens another choice,
    Join with me, set them free,
    Brothers and sisters, let the chickens be.”

    Raise your hands, raise your voice,
    Give the chickens another choice,
    Join with me, set them free,
    Brothers and sisters, let the chickens be.”

    Raise your hands, raise your voice,
    Give the chickens another choice,
    Join with me, set them free,
    Brothers and sisters, let the chickens be.”

    Michael Bolton:
    “Let the chickens be-e-e-e-e-e..!”
