There was one guy in Hollywood who had a company that supplied laugh tracks for most of TV. He would record live audience laughter in various lenghts and intensity and sold them. Funny, I remember NBC used the same sound effects for their shows. They had the same "door closing" sound in every show.

I've long wondered if Pirini Scleroso hailed from the same country as the Shmenge Brothers. I do remember, on the premiere of SCTV's second syndicated season, Floyd Robertson and Earl Camembert reporting that Leutonian terrorists kidnapped Moe Green (Harold Ramis). Nobody seemed to care so Edith Prickley replaced him as station manager.
  1:29pm Dungaroos Kipawah:

GHSoup strangely a favorite. Stones so good then that second tier better than most other bands stuff. I’m w you re Stones & Springsteen outtakes. It’s maddening. Mick always overdubs new vocals & instruments. Basically new “old” stuff. All Springsteen’s old stuff gets studio airbrushing & overdubs

David Shortell: Seems like there's been more and more SCTV stuff appearing online in the last year or so. Or at least that's when I began to notice. Holds up so well.
Avatar 1:38pm Joe B:

but it's two words. is that how they say it?

Don't know, but it amuses me to think so.

I walk the dog and I miss the Linsk Minyk discussion! Greatest version of 'On the Road Again' ever. And funny, I listened to 'It's Only Rock and Roll' in its entirety twice last week. The second time just to confirm how mediocre it is. But I do like 'Luxury', fake Jamaican accent and all.

Speaking of SCTV, Schitt's Creek cleaned house last night at the Emmys.

also, remember the Linsk discussion is ALWAYS open on this show!

Yet, as one commenter on this message board informed me, the Cinemax season (1983-1984) was never collected on home video!

Still on GHS. Well check it out again when you have a moment. To me, a lot to love in there, maybe plowing well-tilled ground, but it sounds great to me. Esp “Winter”, “100 Years Ago” “Comin’ Down Again” but I love it soup to nuts. Like one of those Neil records that didn’t register when released & then you come back & think, “this is waaay better than I remember or has any right to be.” Anyway, I remain a Stones dork thru Tattoo You, so I’m biased
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:46pm mariano:

Andres: I've never been 100% on AC/DC's "Powerage" - the way I've heard it pronounced in the States is "Power Age" but isn't the "-age" supposed to be like "voltage"?

David S: Jeez. I knew about their time on NBC, had to idea they had a Cinemax season. Sad thing is, I probably saw it when I was a kid!
  1:48pm Sylvia's Mother:

Mrs Beasley was "Family Affair."
Avatar 1:50pm Carmichael:

I have all the SCTV collections available for sale, and I'm pretty sure the Cinemax season is one of them.
Avatar 1:52pm Joe B:

the cinemax season is a rough one to get through. but on the bright side, the deal with cinemax gave us the last polka and the bobby bittman special
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:53pm Krys O.:

@Carmichael, etc.: There are some YouTube users who have been uploading SCTV full shows and sketches over the past few years. Part of my nightly ritual is to watch SCTV shows before bed. They were genius. I'm especially floored by Joe Flaherty's imitations of Henry Fonda, Alistair Cooke, John Huston, etc. Amazing....
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:55pm chris_in_space:

@mariano, I always pronounced it "Power Age", but now I can't un-hear the "voltage"-like pronunciation. Mind a little bit blown.

Hi Mariano! I think you're right. Separate word - hard A. Within the word - soft A. The poetry of the language - towmaytow, towmahtow.
Avatar 1:58pm Carmichael:

I showed a Canadian friend the commercial Gordon Lightfoot Sings Every Song Ever Written. He was floored.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 1:59pm Krys O.:

Yeah, the SCTV Cinemax uploads have a lot of quality issues like bad tracking from VHS obviously.
  2:00pm ww:

Jonesy is pretty awesome.
Avatar 👻 2:00pm David Shortell:

Until now, I never heard of the 1988 Cinemax special "The Enigma of Bobby Bittman". I'll definitely view it online.

Hey, thank you, Joe! I didn't know about the new album
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:06pm Phillippe Bastille:

Is that the Matt Berry who is funny as hell in Toast of London, the IT crowd, etc?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:06pm Planet Tyler:

Joe, Matt Berry is an english actor that you've probably seen in a lot of things! Lots of british comedy that's he's also written music for, like the Mighty Boosh and Snuffbox
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:06pm Spankyflop:

Matt Berry is also a pretty funny actor. The IT Crowd and Snuff Box are great shows.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:06pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Planet Tyler Thanks!
Avatar 2:07pm Joe B:

thanks for the info. guess revisiting goats head soup will have to wait!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:09pm mariano:

Krys O: All of the SCTV cast had incredible range when it came to impressions. Shame that the breakout stars in the US wound up getting typecast in the movies, with Moranis and Levy as the nerds, Candy as the lovable fuckup, etc. They did great in those roles of course, but could do so much more.

chris_in_space: That's how I pronounced it for years too, like everyone else.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:11pm Krys O.:

Yes, @Phillippe Bastille. He's Steven Toast on Toast of London and he's Douglas Reynholm on IT Crowd. You should also check out Garth Marenghi's Darkplace. en.wikipedia.org...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:12pm Krys O.:

The Enigma of Bobby Bittman is every bit as good as The Last Polka.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:12pm efd:

ooh, nice version of "Nothing But The Shell!"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:12pm mariano:

Re: Flaherty's impressions, he does a great Peter O'Toole as well. One of my favorites is "The Man Who Would Be King of the Popes," a mashup of "Beckett" and "The Lion in Winter" with Flaherty as O'Toole and John Candy as Richard Burton. Dave Thomas did a really funny Richard Harris singing "MacArthur Park."
Avatar 2:14pm Terre T:

One of my fave SCTV music sketches

Or the psych band on Mel's Rock Pile" youtu.be...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:22pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Krys O. I absolutely loved Garth Marenghi's Dark Place! I didn't know there was another human who act7ually saw it -- it was only on briefly in the US if my memory serves me correctly. Richard Ayoade was so marvelous in that
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:24pm Sweet Corn Lizzie:

Great version of Popcorn!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:24pm Phillippe Bastille:

@Krys O. One of our family inside jokes for a little while was "Can you hear me Steven?" "Yes, I can hear you, Clem Fandango!"
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:25pm mariano:

Yes, Terre T, that is a hilarious sketch! Krys O: Love that "Rock Pile" episode, all the former hippies on the anniversary show now suit-wearing yuppies.

@Phillippe: I was luck enough to be clued into things like Garth M, Catterick, League of Gentlemen, Big Train, and other Chris Morris productions, etc.
Avatar 2:32pm Terre T:

@Joe + Frank - yes the new GBV 's really good- right?
@Phillipe GARTH MARENGHI-Dark Places-- such a funny well done satire- like a Steven King movie set in a hospital. That was advanced comedy-I only got to see it via a grey market DVD player that would play out of region DVDs
@Krys - thx for the psych band clip - I gotta check that later too-
@mariano- can't remember that Flaherty -O'Toole mashup - more funniness to check out
@ Mike Sin-That Bing Crosby Stills Nash + Young-LOL so funny
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:32pm Krys O.:

@Phillippe: Oh, I almost forgot finding out about The Fast Show and Harry & Paul a couple of years ago. That's some genius stuff too.
