Some backstory on this skit, which is the 1st SNL Celebrity Jeopardy
Norm Macdonald (playing Burt Reynolds) wanted to write an SNL skit making fun of the real celebrity version of Jeopardy since the questions were always dumbed down for them. He wanted to base it on the old SCTV skit about a trivia game show called Half Wits, which had featured the current SNL host Martin Short (playing Jerry Lewis). Norm asks for Martin's permission to do the skit, and Martin informs him that he hadn't written the skit, Eugene Levy had, but Norm can call Levy and ask him. Norm gets Eugene's blessing, the skit goes forward, and Celebrity Jeopardy ends up becoming a hugely popular reocurring SNL skit.
and Half Wits was the first (or second) use of Ed Grimley, the greatest of Martin Short's characters. His Jerry Lewis was much better elsewhere.
Jerry Lewis is an incredibly famous comedian from the 50's and on. At one point, he was the highest paid person in Hollywood. He did the Jerry Lewis telethon, which was a hugely famous charity event for muscular dystrophy that he did every year. He was also the original Nutty Professor. I'm not sure if you know the movie with Eddie Murphy, but that was a remake of Jerry Lewis's film.
And one half of the most successful comedy duo of the late 40s / early 50s with Dean Martin even before he made it big (again) on his own.
If you have seen Jerry Lewis, you would see where this guy was going with his character, but didn't really make it funny.
One of the interesting things about Jerry Lewis, is he was a very collected, intelligent man. Very business oriented, very different than his on-screen character.
Animaniacs back in the 90’s used to mock the heck out of Jerry Lewis too.
Also, it was Martin Short playing him, who I believe is an SNL alumni. he's been doing a lot of work with Steve Martin lately
@@granadosvmI think he made Jerry's character incredibly funny
Sean Connery and Burt Reynolds.... here for it
You’ve GOT to watch The Cannonball Run starring Dom DeLuise and Burt Reynolds
I second this
3rd
Absolutely, and it's sequel
Adrienne Barbeau
@@bothellkenmore Exactly
Martin Short plays Jerry Lewis here. Marin Short himself is a very funny man. Jerry Lewis was in his time, and the impression is BANG on.
Yeah, Martin Short is known for doing excellent impressions
Dom Deloise starred with Burt in Cannonball Run 1 and 2, and Dom Deloise was his sidekick #2 in Smokey and the Bandit 2. They were regulars on the Johnny Carson show as well.
Martin Short (Jerry) tours with Steve Martin and stars in Murder in the Building with Steve and Serena Gomez. He is a Canadian comic who became famous in 1980-82 working on SCTV, a sketch comedy show with John Candy, Eugene Levy, and Catherine O hara. He then did an amazing year on SNL with Billy Crystal, Joe Piscopo, and others. The Three Amigos with Steve and Chevy Chase, and dozens of other movies in the 80s til present day.
Martin Short (as Jerry Lewis) is an SNL and SCTV alumni, a Tony award winner, and currently stars with Steve Martin in ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING. THREE AMIGOS starring Martin Short, Steve martin, and Chevy Chase is a must see. Also recommend the Sci-Fi comedy INNERSPACE starring Short with Meg Ryan.
Dom Deluise was with Bert Reynolds in Cannonball Run. Jerry Lewis was a famous comedian since the 50s. He was in the Rat Pack with Dean Martin, Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Sammy Davis Junior and Frank Sinatra. A lot of movies (black and white). He had an annoying scream that he always added (famously "Hey LAADDYYY!!). He is also the person behind Jerry's Kids, a nonprofit for children with various diseases. He was the inspiration for Weird Al Yankovic's song Genius in France.
The Rat Pack was - Frank Sinatra , Dean Martin , Sammy Davis Jr , Peter Lawford & Joey Bishop. Jerry Lewis was never a member but was a comedy duo with Dean Martin and was probably seen hanging with The Rat Pack cause of his partnership with Dean Martin
The cannonball joke is funnier if you saw Cannonball Run. Particularly because Burt Reynolds was the star of said movie.
This was the first Celebrity Jeopardy.
This is in fact, the very first episode of Celebrity Jeopardy on SNL.
Yeah bud you're right - this was the VERY first SNL Celebrity Jeopardy, it came out in 1996, and it DEFINITELY started out rough compared to what it ended up as. Jerry Lewis was a well-known slapstick comedian from the 50s who was in a lot of movies and skits where he'd fall down a lot and be a bumbling idiot, that was his gimmick. The guy playing him is Martin Short, who is a lot funnier outside of this skit - he's good friends with Steve Martin and the two have been in many movies and tv shows together including Father of the Bride, Three Amigos, and Only Murders in the Building.
You *have* to watch either "Point/Counterpoint" with Dan Ackroyd and Jane Curtin or the Matt Foley sketches, from the 70s and 90s respectively
Matt Foley, motivational speaker, is awesome. I'm always telling my kids to make sure they're doing the right things so they don't end up "livin' in a van down by the river" 😂
You gotta do the Dave Matthews, Bjork, Sean Connery one. It has one of the best "Your Mom" jokes in the whole series.
Sometimes when someone in my house makes a loud noise I'll still say "EVERYTHING IS MUSIC MUSIC MUSIC, CRASH BOOM BANG"
Jerry Lewis was a unofficial part of the Rat Pack . His Jerry Lewis Labor day Telethons were hugely famous 3 day events , if you had regular non cable channels it was the only thing on EVERY channel that weekend to watch from 1966 to 2014 😁😁. Martin Short plays Jerry in this one, Martin is also a hugely famous comedian.
The Rat Pack were - Frank Sinatra , Dean Martin , Sammy Davis Jr. , Peter Lawford & Joey Bishop. Jerry Lewis was never a member but was a comedy duo with Dean Martin , they did quite a few comedy movies before going separate ways.
Jerry Lewis was an iconic comedian. He was part of the comedy team of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis back in the 1950's and I believe into the 1960's. The duo made a bunch of movies. They broke up and he went on to a solo career in movie comedies. He was well know for his annual Muscular Dystrophy Telethon that was on each year over the labor day weekend. I remember watching the Telethon for many years. If I remember correctly, Don McMahon, Johnny Carson's sidekick on the Tonight show, was on the Telethon with Jerry for many years. Many popular performers of the day appeared on the Telethon over the years.
Ed McMahon?
@@chuckwilliams6261 Yup Ed McMahon.
I've never felt more old than i do when I watch you watch these SNL skits. And, I'm only 54
This is of course making fun of the fact that Celebrity Jeopardy has incredibly easy questions and the celebrities often get them wrong.
Btw, the movie Cannonball Run with Burt Reynolds was excellent.
Cannonball Run was a movie Burt Reynolds was in
I must keep in mind your age and exposures are different than myself. I find it unbelievable sometimes when you claim to not be aware of certain celebrities. This video was Jerry Lewis, Dom DeLuise, Saturday Night Fever and Cannonball Run with Burt Reynolds and Dom DeLuise. Jerry Lewis and Dean Martin were often teamed up in movies and stand up gigs. Mr. Lewis also starred in the original Nutty Professor released in June of '63.
The episode with Nicholas Cage is hilarious as well. 🤭🤭🤭
To truly appreciate the Jerry Lewis impersonation, you have to see a little of the real Jerry Lewis, in some crazy movies with Dean Martin,..but probably what most people know him for(besides the annual fundraiser for Muscular Dystrophy), the Nutty Professor,..Eddie Murphy wasn't the first to do that, and I know really, truly, that kinda stemmed from the Jekylll and Hyde story, but of course as is the case with Eddie Murphy, it was a comedy,..Martin Short,..who is hilarious,..he's in a movie with Dennis Quaid, Meg Ryan(and an alumnus of original Invasion of The Body Snatchers movie), Innerspace, comic genius,..do check it out,..then he's in a movie with Nick Nolte, Three Fugitives, and a mad movie with Charles Grodin(who was in a crazy fun one with Robert DeNiro, Midnight Run), Clifford, where he plays a demented kid,..Short started in Second City like John Candy, Catherine O' Hara, and this sketch cracked me up when they got to the Cannonball reference,..you see both fake Lewis and Connery look at fake Reynolds, like if anyone knows this you should,..as a kid in the 70's, Cannonball, was one of the mad car chase movies Reynolds was in, he was known for at the time,..that and Smoky and the Bandit movies,..these sketches were hilarious too in the beginning, cause a lot of us, including the live audience recognized the references,..do keep going,..even though your younger than us,..you know funny when you see it, even old funny,..enjoy, Godspeed, Peace ✌
One of the most notable things about early Celebrity Jeopardy skits is that they sometimes don't have Sean Connery. The main antagonist was Burt Reynolds, because Norm MacDonald really wanted an excuse to do his Burt Reynolds impression. After Norm was abruptly fired from the show, Sean Connery was moved into Burt's position, and the sketch evolved into its later glory from there. (This is why Burt randomly shows up in a couple of later skits as a fourth contestant midway through - he's meant to be a surprise cameo.)
I mention all this because Norm's monologue from the Oct 23 1999 show is legendary. I highly recommend it as the subject for a reaction video.
They guy playing jerry Lewis is Martin short. I’m sure there amigos will pop up as a suggestion soon.
Jerry Lee Lewis is played by comedy legend Martin short, and he is hilarious, one of my favorites
Jerry Lewis. Not Jerry Lee Lewis. Jerry Lee Lewis is the murderous rock and roll star.
Jerry Lewis.
Jerry LEE Lewis sang 'Great Balls of Fire'. And in fact apparently just died 2 months ago.
@@JakkFrost1 He's burning in hell right now. His balls are not great, but they are on fire!
The best part is how confused he is about Jerry Lewis. If you know Martin shirt and Jerry this classic comedy
JAWS is my second all-time favorite movie. The shark, affectionately known as Bruce, looks very fake, but, the cast, the acting, the dialogue, the suspense Spielberg was able to create is amazing. It was also so early in his career. It is not to be missed. Masterful story telling.
Martin Short is a comic famous for The Three Amigos. He also did an excellent job in the movie Innerspace with Dennis Quaid. And Pure Luck is hilarious.
Jerry Lewis was a comedic actor and did a lot for charities. The Jerry Lewis telethon for Muscular Dystrophy went on for decades. These are some of my fav SNL skits.
Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis were a comedy team. Of course Dean Martin was one of the best singers of the 1950's, 60's, and 70's Dean Martin - Memories are made of this
Thats martin short as jerry lewis. Short is amazingly funny especially in the things he does with steve martin.
Cannonball Run was a film series that STARRED Burt Reynolds.
The cannonball run joke is based on the fact that Burt Reynolds was the star of Cannonball Run.
I haven’t seen you react to the last Celebrity Jeopardy they ever did yet. With Dave Matthew’s, Björk and Sean Connery.
Also there is an all time great cameo appearance in it
Burt Is my fav, and he was the star of cannon ball run
Cannonball Run starred both Jerry Lewis and Burt Reynolds.
Burt Reynolds was an actor in (Cannon Ball Run).
dont know who jerry lewis is...lol OH BOY I SEE THE TRAIN COMING
I can’t wait til you react to the one with the real Alex
Jerry Lewis was a famous comedian, and director. I can't believe you haven't heard of him. He was also a famous spokesperson and fundraiser for Muscular Dystrophy.
Oh yeah, and Burt R was in Cannonball Run. That’s where the (less-than-great) joke was.
i thought it was a pretty good joke. they all just look at him. cause he should know the answer.
Jerry Lewis typewriter routine is a riot.
I'm surprise Lboyd didn't say he's never heard of Saturday Night Fever.
Man you are hilarious. I'm gonna be seeing Jaws pretty soon!
Cannon ball run is movie that starred urt Reynolds and Jerry Lewis ' comedy partner Dean Martin. Jerry Lewis was a very popular comedy actor who later gained notoriety through his charity work with the MDA.
This is the first Celebrity Jeopardy. The comedian playing Jerry Lewis is actually a really popular actor. Martin Short. He's done stuff with Steve Martin for decades. Three Amigos
The guy plying Jerry Lewis - Martin Short - is currently the co-star on Only Murders in the Building
It’s funnier when you know the characters they are portraying
Yeah the evolution is fascinating...they kept Burt until Norm got fired (tho he showed up once or twice as cameos later), and the fucking with Trebeck stuff was divided between them. Sean ended up the only recurring permanent and took over all the major shenigans.
The writers found, I think maybe the episode after this one, Sean's real "voice," which he crack his first mom joke and starts actively fucking with Alex.
Jerry lewis was a comedy great
Burt Reynolds was in cannonball run.
Mr Lboyd you sweet summer child. For Jerry Lewis, I suggest you see his skits with Dean Martin. Or one of his many movies, like Cinderfella. 😉
That's really how Jerry Louis was back in the day, he actually is the original nutty professor, the Eddie Murphy verson was a remake about 40 years after the original
Jerry Lewis (had a telethon for YEARS), was a comedian in the 50s-60s and Dean Martin and he were a team for a while. France regards JL as the premier comedian.
Aside from Jerry Lewis's hilarious movies like The Nutty Professor and Boeing Boeing he also had a charity called Jerry's Kids which had a telethon to raise money on TV every year.
Since you don't know the guy that was playing Jerry Lewis I really suggest that you watch Three amigos starring Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, and Martin Short.
Love these
I totally agree, this skit evolved and became much better over time. I don't think I've seen you dou the one with Tom Cruise.
Jerry Lewis was a vomedian in the 50's and 60's and part of a comedy team with Dean Martin. He is better known though for his Labor Day telethons to support MD research.
suggestion, might get censored. Sam Kinison Sings "Are You Lonesome Tonight"
I second this. 😆
Pretty sure this is the very first one. Yes the evolution is what makes them so funny. TheRapist for twenty. Is a good move from S Words.
Martin short the guy who plays jerry lewis is literally scientifically proven to be the funniest human being alive.
Yeah this must be a really early one. One good joke that you might have missed was the movie one about racing that shows canon balls can run. The movie is Cannon Ball Run and the reason he was surprised Burt Reynolds didn't get it is Burt Reynolds is in the movie
Have you yet seen the snl series of "Brian fellowes:?
Jerry Lewis is the comedian Data was emulating when he was studying comedy. When he’s just making faces and thinks it’s humorous
Watch Innerspace and the 3 amigos with Martin Short and you will change your mind on the man. Great physical comedian.
Burt Reynolds starred in Cannon Ball Run 1 & 2.
Jerry Lewis is the white Nutty Perfessor so if you watched The Simpsons he's basically Doctor Frink
You need to check out SNL game show parody, Common Knowledge.
Yay I'm the 700th like. First that day back in kindergarten when Mrs. Houseonsmack gave everyone who showed up a participation ribbon. Now this happens I know that I am one of the truly lucky ones. Never forget *dreams do come true* when you go to college for your degree in lesbian dance theory and then enter the demanding but satisfying career of a professional barista that's when you've made it.
Hope you don't mind me asking but what kind of mic do you use?
you need to make a playlist of your reactions to the Sean Connery Jeopardy's
Yes, it’s not as funny as the later ones. However, you’re too young to get most of the references in this one, so of course you won’t think this is funny. This was a spot on impression of comedian Jerry Lewis. Burt Reynolds starred in Cannonball Run with Dom Deluise so that’s why Trebek said Burt, you might want to answer this one.
Burt Reynolds was a star in Cannonball run...so him not knowing it was pretty funny.
And you’re correct...Martin Short isn’t very funny!!!
Oops, wait, this may be the original WF episode.
It's funny if you're old enough to know all the references!
Sir, you have missed out on Harry Mack x Beardyman!🔥 it’ll be most def to your liking.
4:25 - it also got dumbed down from here. Apparently too many people missed too many jokes.
martin short is playing jerry
Another, this time a song. PakaTute by Gogol Bordello
Wow... really you dont jerry lewis. Incredible. Huge star comedian from the fifties who went on to found the telethon of relations for muscular dystrophy... when he was star of movies with his partner in crime Dean Martin he became an enormous hit in France for what ever reason....
Gotta be honest, given your extensive knowledge, I'm often blown away by the things you _don't_ know, like who Jerry Lewis and Sean Connery are. I get that you weren't as inundated with "Hollywood culture" as most North Americans are, but still... 😳
YOU DONT KNOW WHO DOM DELUISE IS?!
Let’s Go
MrLboyd, you do know this is SNL, not the real show.
Man, i think you forgot about MiyaGi 😄 please can you make reaction to his track "Marlboro"🤙
I hope eventually you work your way into some Norm Macdonald, his stand up is brilliantly precisely reckless , but he shines most in his late night talk show interviews where his extreme intelligence is coupled with his youthful exuberance and child like charm, norm died in 2021 after a secret 9 year battle with cancer that no one knew about until after he was gone
One of my favorite SNL sketches was where Sylvester Stallone tried to save Norm from a car accident. If you haven’t seen it go watch it. It’s Norm at his best.
Where did you grow up that you dont know Dom DeLuis or that Popeye is a sailor man?
Martin Short, who's playing Jerry, can be a bit much. Jerry Lewis could also be a bit much
you should check Little Big - everybody or any of the most popular ones they have, other one could be interested would be Oliver tree, same deal any of the most popular ones, you are up for a treat
I'm kind of shocked he doesn't know who Jerry Lewis was ??? Wow are you 22 or something ??
☮️💙💙💙😜
Jerry Lewis was a comedian actor from the '50s to the '80s, and was paired up with Dean Martin for a string of movies. The skit represents his comedic style very well, and he was very annoying. And not funny.
YOU DON'T KNOW WHO JERRY LEWIS IS! How about Dean Martin? 🤣
Google Time my friend!
in this one, burt reynolds is the antagonist, not sean connery
I'd say it was Jerry Lewis this time
Try Jimminy Glick
Can you react to ''record mundial kaze'' its a wold record of rap and its in spanish ^^ it would be awesome
Yes this was the first one I believe and thats why it just gets better and better and also its a known joke already that they are all morons lol
Burt Reynolds and Dom deluise was the stars of cannonball run its an all star cast movie about a long race and is considered a comedy classic but Burt Reynolds did it to help out the director but didn't like the character
Please react to White Man's world And Everything they owe from 2pac. I really want to see what u think
