We focused on on-camera talent, not behind-the-scenes players, and took into account each individual's unique characters, impression work and overall impact on the show.
It's a testament to the show's reach: Like no other program on television, "SNL" spans generations and inspires a passionate sense of ownership from viewers over their favorite eras, characters and cast members.įirst we established our criteria, judging cast members by their work solely on the show, not what they went on to do afterward. What followed was an intense, weekslong debate that drew opinions from everybody on our staff: Metro reporters, editors, designers, even the crew in sports. With "Saturday Night Live" celebrating its 40th anniversary with a massive prime time special on Sunday - Justin Timberlake, Adam Sandler, Paul McCartney, Kanye West, Steve Martin, Jerry Seinfeld and Eddie Murphy are just a few of the names scheduled to participate - The Detroit News entertainment staff decided to get together to rank the comic institution's all-time Top 40 cast members. the most heated debate to hit our office in years. Please welcome the Meryl Sisters.Live from Detroit, it's. Now to take us out is a sister act from the Finger Lakes making their wonderful “Lawrence Welk Show” debut. Bobby, when are you gonna ask Cissy to marry you? She’s ready. We’ve enjoyed the beautiful harmonies of the lovely Lennon Sisters, Joe Finni and Guy Holy, the deep baratone of Larry Hooper, the very nice and entertaining accordian sounds of Myron Florin, and the high clicking quick steps of Bobby and Cissy. I want to thank all our wonderful guests tonight.
And I am sorry to say we have come to that time again, time to say goodnight.
Announcer: PBS now returns to another mildly enjoyable moment from the Lawrence Welk Show.
