    Greatest commercial parody ever by SNL. So dry, it mirrors that style of commercial perfectly and never winks at the camera. My favorite line: "And we can handle special requests like that... usually the same day."

    • @Thrifty032781

      I was just a kid back then but I recognized that they were visually similar to the Chase commercials and I think this introduced me to the concept of commercial parodies.
      I'm glad that nowadays I can watch this whenever I want. Back then you had to hope you were tuning in when Comedy Central aired the rerun of this episode, or SNL Goes Commercial, or that you had a tape ready to go when it did air.

    The volume bit has been in my repertoire for 30 years.

The answer is simple: volume." bit in the sketch.)

    Loved this sketch, and it reminds me of another one: fake change that you can buy to give to homeless people so theyll leave you alone. I forget what the skit is titled so i cant find it on youtube, but the joke was that the fake money costs more than the regular money, so it would just be cheaper to just give the homeless people real money and youd get the same end result😂loved that one, if anyone can find that one please reply it to me

    Before UK decimalization in 1971, four guineas, two crowns, four shillings and ten pence would not have amounted to five pounds, as it was 240 pence to a pound instead of 100. After decimalization it would be five pounds, as it's five pence to a shilling, twenty shillings to a pound, five shillings to a crown and one pound and one shilling to a guinea.
