He isn't. Or people would still be talking about him and other comedians would mention him when they talk. They don't. He was one of the worst cast members on SNL too. I understand he brings some nostalgia for many of you, he just isn't the underrated comedy mastermind that you think he is.
@@dangerous8333that was a horrible season of SNL. They brought in big names like Elliot, Michael McKean, Garafalo and it was terrible and they basically got rid of everyone at the end of the season except for Meadows and Spade Get a Life was the funniest show in TV back when it aired and Cabin Boy is one of the 90s best comedies. Along with Clifford and Almost Heroes (not joking, I love those movies)
So hard to believe this compilation/this channel/this website/this internet exists! When these were actually airing, I was still relying on VHS tapes, via touring bands, the U.S. mail, and fellow tape-traders on my "route" like Rick Linklater, Phil Proctor*, George Wendt and the Butthole Surfers! *(of these, I know for certain all appeared with Dave apart maybe from Phil. Did the Firesign Theater ever appear on LN/tLS?)
@@mjp96 I can remember when “Get a Life” (which I used to LOVE”) was dead last in the Neilson ratings my friends and I joked “You know,, I bet he likes being the lowest rated TV show” ha ha Unsure if today’s generation would get his style of comedy, but I’ve always loved him. I was 10 to 20 during the 89’s so I’m and 80’s fo sho.
I have the Porno, with that particular Musical "score", in it, on VHS, no less. "Gettin' Ready", i think it is. Many others, too, probably. Starring Peter North and Millions of dead/dying Spermatozoa.
Fun Fact! "Cabin Boy" is a Capricorn ("Sea Goat") and so am i (not that i am Bragging.) No wonder Chris Elliott described "Cabin Boy", as a "FantaSEA Adventure" and Chris Elliott could be described, as a "GOAT" (Greatest cabin boy Of All Time.)
- and all the lawyers got into one of their "goon huddles"... I forgot how much I love Chris Elliott. Now I'm going to have to watch Cabin Boy for the first time in a quarter century! Would you like to buy a monkey?
Thanks for another delightful addition to the Chris Elliott treasure trove. Just 1 complaint: Is there no escape, no respite, no refuge from "The Donald??!!" Jesus H!

@Don Giller , hey Don, I just wanted to share a Monologue joke with you. It starts near 2:26 on ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-CefiRVQCXx0.html it involves McGruff the crime dog
To this very day my wife hasn't forgiven me for dragging her to this movie! Now when I suggest a movie she just responds Cabin Boy! Im glad she forgot i also dragged her to see BeverlyHills Ninja!
Love Chris, but the longer skits like that go, the more they start to lose their comedic value. I hate to say it, and it's only my opinion, but not funny.
