    Roy Orbison had an amazing voice, and who couldn't love SCTV. Never see talent like this ever again, music and comedy

      💯 sctv was the best. And Roy was an absolute legend.

      I know lots of people loved his voice, but I just don't. His trebly warbly vibrato reminds me of Buffy St Marie, whose wobbly voice I also dislike.
      "Pretty Woman" is a great song, for sure. And Roy Orbison is a legend, without question.
      I just don't like his voice..

    • @PhantomMarquis
      @PhantomMarquis Год назад +2

      Heart-attack, more specifically. He had a habit of rapid weight-loss before recording/tours, plus he smoked, so that left him physically vulnerable, leaving the world at only 52.

      I watched this show live in 1981, at 1AM on a Saturday night, on a 1979 13 inch RCA color television with a monophonic 6 inch speaker. Watching it on DVD 40 years later on a flat panel TV hooked up to a nice stereo system, is something the technicians probably hadn't planned for, but it sounds great to me and even better off of the DVD.

    Help me SCTV fans, please !!
    There is a scene where Guy Caballero is watching something he doesn’t like and starts saying,,, “ I don’t like this I don’t like this I’m a scared ,,,,,,,,,, then rubs his hands all over all over his face while making booba booba bluba bluba sounds……….
    I thought it was the ZONTAR episode but I’m mistaken because I watched Zontar on my DVD looking for that scene a few years ago and my buddy watched it a few days ago online looking for it and it ain’t there.
    HELP if you can.
    It’s buggin’ me.
    ANY info. at all would be greatly appreciated.

      @teddymark4324 5 лет назад +1

      2packs4sure - I don't know the name of the episode... But I think the scene you're thinking about occurs with the energy ball that sucks up and traps the sctv characters/stars. Guy Cabellero was watching a security feed on the tv of the energy ball and that's when he was freaking out. Andrea martin's character (she portrays the short lady in poltergeist I think) destroys the energy ball by ramming it with a forklift.
      Just looked it up... It was the sweeps week episode if you remember that.
