One thing the copyright cops ruined on RUclips is how it's a great home for orphaned material from shows that flew under the radar. So delighted to see this buried treasure.
Mark Blankfield is absolutely brilliant!! I don't think most people realize how difficult playing the pharmacist character is- being that hyped-up & wired, etc.... I was in a theater poduction & had to portray a character very simlar to this & believe me, it's not easy- he is AMAZING!!
I'm not saying every SNL character is great. Cause let's face it; Stuart, Pat, and Lisa from Temecula are TERRIBLE, just to name a few, but this is just annoying and not funny. I know the guy is committed and giving it his all, but nope. Sorry. It sucks.

Mark is a hugely underrated actor

Cast: Mark Blankenship & Melanie Chartoff, Bruce Mahler, Brandis Kemp
The one comedian always reminded me of Mr Goodbody, from Captain Kangaroo. This was the same time for both.
thanks for that
A funny clip, but very uneven video quality.
The struggle of old video tapes......
You came here for hi quality video?
