Join the epic "Not Ready for Prime Time Players" cast of Saturday Night Live regulars in a hilarious compilation of the best holiday moments from the show's Christmas specials. Some of the highlights include "Martha Stewart's Topless Christmas Special," "The Lost Ending to It's a Wonderful Life," "The Night Hannukah Harry Saved Christmas," "Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood on Christmas" and, of course, the Church Lady's drum solo.
Acting
Alec Baldwin's deadpan Schweddy Balls delivery.
Writing
Lost It's a Wonderful Life ending is pitch-black perfection.
Costume
Whatever nightmare fuel Hannukah Harry's outfit was.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This compilation pulls from 1975-1998 sketches, meaning you're watching 23 years of cast chemistry crammed into 65 minutes. The Schweddy Balls sketch was so notorious NPR actually referenced it in later news stories about the real Pete Schweddy's bakery.
The 'Lost Ending' sketch directly parodies the rampant 'dark alternative endings' VHS bootleg culture of the '90s, where cinephiles traded grainy copies of supposed director's cuts. SNL mocking film nerds while being film nerds? Iconic.
