From "Wayne's World" to the creepy hilarity of "Sprockets" and its slinky German host Dieter, this 16-sketch compilation showcases Mike Myers in his Saturday Night Live prime. Wayne Campbell and his sidekick Garth (Dana Carvey) are featured in two memorable sketches, jamming with Aerosmith and enjoying a sexy dream sequence with the babelicious Madonna. The Material Girl shows up again as the daughter of "Coffee Talk" hostess Linda Richman (who was inspired by Myers's mother-in-law), in a choice sketch with Roseanne, featuring a cameo by Barbra Streisand which is, as Linda would say, "like buttah." More obscure sketches show Myers at his most bizarre, charming, and experimental. "Lothar of the Hill People" challenged network censors with not-so-subtle allusions to masturbation and female genitalia, while Myers's penchant for all things British is frequently indulged, including spot-on send-ups of Ron Wood and Mick Jagger. His portrayal of a hypoglycemic, hyperactive 6-year-old--complete with safety helmet and restraining harness--is both outrageously funny and more than a little dangerous. (It's a miracle that guest host Nicole Kidman keeps a straight face as she feeds the "kid" a chocolate bar, with the expected results.) And while other sketches such as "Middle Aged Man" were not likely to follow Wayne and Dieter to big-screen success, they show Myers doing what he does best: conceiving original characters and pushing them to comedic extremes. --Jeff Shannon

I purchased several of these best of SNL DVD's for my son for Christmas. We loved the Adam Sandler, Will Farrell, Chris Farley and John Belushi. This one was JUST NOT FUNNY. They could have chosen much funnier skits but instead went for the Madonna, Aerosmith, Nicole Kidman, Danny DeVito features... as if throwing in those 'celebrities' would be worth it. NOT.
 Funniest Best of SNL December 28, 2007

Mike Myers is the funniest cast member from SNL ever! Each and every skit is hilarious!
 Great fun, but could have been better January 5, 2007
Simon Davison (Los Gatos, CA)
While this was seriously funny it didn't include his funniest stuff. Maybe it's a matter of taste. Either way, this is a great buy.

This DVD makes me 'as happy as a little GIRRRL!' The DVD whets your appetite, as it includes some of Mike Myers' better skits. 'Sprockets' and 'Cawfee Tawk' is worth the price of the DVD and then some.
