Matt Foley: Scaring Kids Straight In Prison - SNL 

Absolutely. Farley was amazing! Miss him immensely.

A legend

Cocaine definitely helped

Thought it was a fat joke

One thing about him, he wasn’t about to be told he couldn’t do it. I hope he’s resting peacefully.

I cried

Now all I got is a cot, a toilet, and a homemade tattoo of A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!!!!

bwahaha!

@@marvelgeek9577 He forgot to add a cell full of JACK SQUAT!!!

He forgot the steady diet of government cheese.

Chris Farley was a legend, he could make the greatest comedian laugh and get out of character. It's sad his life ended so soon.

That was my favourite part. I love seeing Chris crack up his friends. And they all did. On a side note Tim Burton should have some type of award for the one comedian who barely ever laughed to break character. You could have Christopher walkings free styling im his face and he would stay dead pan in character lol

thats 100%

CF had to improv to get AS straight.. " hang on to your sense of humor young fella"

Sandler laughs at everything

I know it! Every single skit he ever did with Farley, he couldn't wipe that smile off his face hahaha!!!!

@@jonathanriley7147 AND THAT'S WHEN YOU BREAK!

Sandler's always been a fucking hack. Majority of people are just fucking morons.

Useful Vidiots Wtf is your problem😁

I noticed😂

rj zander you run a meme page that has 10 followers don’t you

@Julian Guardiola Millenials are totally old enough to see these shows while in their prime. I vividly remember watching Farley -- guess genX and boomers are too fuckin' stupid to use a calendar or google.

You know someone is funny if they can just walk in the room anywhere anytime and everyone laughs just because his presence and laughs at everything he says. I can’t think of anyone else like Mr. Farley. He was an amazing talent.

zander dude was a fucking legend!! Have some respect

rj zander Motherfucker was hilarious in Billy Madison and he doesn’t do a single fat joke or even in your own words “accentuate his fatness”. He knew physical comedy; and could do it regardless of his weight. Anyone who thinks physical comedy is easy is right to a large extent. Anyone who thinks the greats of physical comedy had nothing special are ignorant. The fact that anyone can do physical comedy means you have to have something special to be renowned for it.

Me too. I wonder whatever happened to Martin Lawrence

Apparently the audience didn't like Martin's monologue. He told a pretty crass joke about women and another one that was offensive but I can't remember what it was about. After that the audience didn't laugh during his skits that much. He was banned from the show after this episode til last year I believe.

Thing is, everyone was laughing about a woman castrating a man and his member being thrown on ice. Talking about female hygiene, though, is a “bridge too far”.

@@77Creation The nasty trash females "need to wash their stuff". 😂

​@@chrissjoy He wasn't banned from the show, it was NBC who made the decision. Then after reviewing the monologue in it's entirety, they issued Martin Lawrence an apology letter. The joke he told was pretty typical of the Def Comedy Jam era. It was about fellatio, not women in general.

Martin over-reacted this like crazy. It was annoying and selfish and was just bad for entertainment.

also jay mahr or w.e his name is from small soldiers and polly lol i love how he gets them all to laugh

They barely laughed this sketch because it wasn’t funny

@@Jealod24 I agree, a lot of yelling and no substance plus a lame and predictable punch line.

He introduced him by his real name 😂🤣

@@Jealod24 David spade was funnier

I noticed that also.

Same with Jay Mohr on the far left and Rob Schneider was just sitting there smiling away. Don't blame them though. It's VERY hard to try and not laugh at Chris Farley, especially when he's Matt Foley.

......neither can I....!

😔

Every skit they were in together Sandler couldn’t keep a straight face

They shoot two times. Something must have gone wrong during the chair scene and they used that take instead.

They probably film the rehearsals and what's archived is the best edit.

Sandler is grinning the whole time. 😂

@@tofutoph David And Jay too

I think its kit and kaboodle

They should of wrote it as van, river, and government cheese.

@T. Williams Nice.

@@edwardklein6732 This was the 90s, not 2019 dumb ass

Nelson Robert Willis Well la di freaking da. You must be the smart one around here. Do you know what happens to the “smart” ones in prison? Let’s just say they wish they were living in a van down by the river.

Talk about bitches... Phils ex-wife should be in jail.

Poor Chris and poor Phil. RIP, buddies.

Yes they were both comic geniuses but Farley as one of kind.

I know and how Phil Hartman died was so tragic. Chris's death of course was tragic as well but Phil being murdered by his wife is just crazy. To complete and utter gifts Humanity they were taken so young. Who knows what more great body of work they could have left us with more laughter and joy that this dark world needs now more than ever.

@@denalicoin382 she's not for killing her husband? That's f***** up. Did she play in Saturday or some b*******? Obviously she wasn't saying but I think sometimes Killers please Insanity because being institutionalized in a mental hospital is a little less severe than the jail. Like they always say there's a special place in hell for people like her. Phil seemed like a kind-hearted loving husband and as guilty of nothing but I don't know much about the relationship so I could be talking out my ass right now. Rest in peace Chris and Phil. Too true comedy Legends and downright Geniuses in my book.

He looked directly at Tim Meadows and did it, I remember watching this when it aired and laughing hysterically

On the February 19, 1994, episode of SATURDAY NIGHT 😴 LIVE, of course.

That was Martin

They feed off each other,one will get it going then the other will just play along 😂

When he bust in I think everyone laughed at least a little.

He should have stopped playing in a van down by the river skit after the first one. After that they werent funny.

U know ur right. Otherwise Sandler doesn't.

thewormzerjr - I disagree, the Halloween one was hysterical.

I have a white G20 van trevorton Pennsylvania on the Susquehanna River

One day I'm sure you will

I've been thinking the same thing lately!! 🤔😂😂😂☮️

HOW did I never see this classic Matt Foley sketch, featuring Martin Lawrence!! Loving it!!!

@@dylanenck8051 They prolly just think your living the life, fishing retirement. No one thinks anything about people chillin out doin nothin in PA.

He made some odd bird sound too just to crack up Sandler if you listen close

Well spotted

That was the best part of Farley.. he managed to get everyone to crack up and laugh.. really miss him

He was barely laughing unless it was part of his character

They were buds. They fed each others characters well.

Yep

Lol

Today's world hates Chris farley newer generation.

Him and John Candy. Something about the fat, loveable guy.

True story.

@BR 549 On a steady diet of Heavenly cheese.

I wonder what happened during the scene because Chris goes from a dry shirt to a wet ass shirt after the camera is obviously cut lol.

Jim Carey is pretty good, too. No disrespect to Chris Farley, but I wouldn't say he had "unmatched comedic skill". It's your opinion, but I disagree.

HE IS STILL WITH US HE DIDNT LEAVE

Yeah now we are stuck watching shitty Kevin James in Adam Sandler movies.. when u know that part would have gone to Farley

He is missed 😒

Phil Hartman is a reminder that you REALLY never know your wife.....RIP

And Phil Hartman. That guy was awesome.

I forgot Jay Mohr was on SNL.. crazy talent in that single sketch

Luke 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it. KJV

Phil was like a professional the rest of the crew were great too but they could get sloppy

I loose Knowledge in Jesus' name.

Very impressive!

@@michaeljohnson5237 Where's a Bible Verse that says God created the Devil?

Are*

SNL has lost so many great comedians

@Where Is Waldo I was going to point that out. No need and good point. Most of us have at some point in our life been dumped. But who is anyone of us to say. OK were done so your done. None hypocritical either. Susan Stratton murdered by soon to be ex husband. Both were on the rise to??? We'll never know.

Farley was a junkie

Benjamin Padilla ... So?!?! Almost everyone you like in Hollywood is a junkie too??? I bet you have junkies in your family like me??? They are still your blood and human. They just have a illness and makes them do the wrong things and make bad decisions. Sometimes they pay the price with their life???!!! And it kills more than them... it hurts everyone who loved them!!! And Chris was a family member to the world and it hurts everyone when he passed??? Your statement is ignorant and not sure what you are trying to say or prove?

Eric Hart Thrice divorced 😩😂🤣

What is alimony like when u divorce the woman gets a payment or settlement thingy

That’s the line that really stood out.

Dats like murder lol

@@dannyr333 Fancy word for legalized robbery.

Best comment here. RIP Chris Farley

LOL genius comment! ❤

Pretty sure he was looking at Sandler there.

Right. Non-payment of alimony barely gets punished at all. Meanwhile his kid suffer.

They didn't.

@@oasisinthestorm1361 Meanwhile, the woman doesn't pay shit. While the man serves 3 - 5 years.

@@oasisinthestorm1361 Most of these heffers nowadays spend "child support" money and "welfare money" on stuff for themselves like diamond encrusted vibrators and yeast infection cream. Nasty heffers. 🤣

Forget the Kid..Forget what the Whether the Woman pay or not...How bout this...Even in a National Televised Comedy Sketch 2 Notorious Inmates..A White Inmate 3-5 years Young Black Inmate..Warden: Will Be Here Long After I Retire...Love&Peace luv ya byo eJ

Orr Jake and Chris is doing his best to break them!

That’s how you know who really ran the show lol.

I’ve been watching a lot of these older skits and the mid90s audience kinda suck haha. No wonder Farley and Sandler got fired

The Audience is so dead I don’t get it

@@penguinodave I get it

@@acavalieri07 Farley didn't get fired for non laughter. He probably fired for his uncontrollable drug addiction. Sad ending to who they say was a very nice guy.

Maybe they didn't think it was funny. When a large group of people collectively don't laugh, it's not the audience's fault. If people don't laugh, it means the joke wasn't funny. I found it funny, but that doesn't mean everyone has to laugh. You don't see me complaining, I just enjoy the skit and move on. Shits funny, some shits only funny to other people. Some of the shit I find hilarious might not make you laugh l, but I still like it without complaining.

Scott Arivett OMG! it has been 22 years! It doesn't seem like that long😪

@@mrlee732823 now time goes too fast

When I heard on the news of his struggles with not being able to lose weight because he was afraid no one would like him act thin, I wish I could have told him somehow, "Yo, Chris, we love you man, anyway you are. You're the best!" We'll see him in Heaven, what an awesome dude.

yea damn. shame sandler was there tho lmbo

Lonus Bjonus he was really funny in the 90s and early 2000s

Hey, Sandlers still a beast! His movies are not as classic but thats bc HE Choose this..He wants his kids to see "cleaner" styles..Still one of best ever

@@d-mo733 He makes shit comedys his fans hate cause he doesnt wants his kids to be exposed to dirty,raunchy humour? Buddy,his only R-rated comedys are That's my boy and funny people ( although thats a dramedy). So nothing has changed except the quality. Maybe he should only make homemovies for his kids then...he lost his touch,Zohan and Anger management are his only funny films in 20 years.

And at the time we had no idea quite how good they were or would become

I agree

Agreed. He almost makes this sketch die.

😂😂 chira kinda did that skit on Tommy boy to ialright its go time lol I guess he knows it made people.laugh and it did work I miss Farley wish he was still with us

If you look closely, you can see a detail that David Spade mentioned in a podcast interview: when Chris is angled away from the audience he would cross his eyes while face to face with the other actors, to make them break and laugh at his silly expression.

Me either and I thought I've seen Farley skits

Same here.

Saw it back in the day. Completely forgot about this skit until I youtubed it recently. The days when SNL was funny, was a time to be alive.

Was this from Martin Lawrences’ banned episode. Either that or he was banned for life for cursing too much when he hosted back in the mid 90s. This had to be a supplemental sketch. Very cool to see it. Again?

They had banned the whole episode but looks like they decided to open Pandora box and show a few scenes. It was mainly his opening monologue that got him banned anyway. But these scenes don't look funny anyway

Yeah seeing this made me really accept two things....SNL is absolutely white since Eddie Murphy left and they refused to laugh at Martin's character in this scene. They were very biased during this era. Martin came with his own show and made all that shit stand still for 5 seasons. RIP to the great great Chris Farley we all miss you big guy

@@Nimonjeua-Ndiangang Martin was extremely funny in this sketch - he nailed it.

@@Nimonjeua-Ndiangang it's bc Martin ain't that funny & never was. Besides...this skit is meant for Chris...not Martin. Racism has 0 to do with it.

@@TokyoXtreme nailed what? He didn't do anything except act weird. Martin was never funny. Way overrated

@@Bobaman5400 Martin is definitely funny, just bc he’s doesn’t satisfy your humor doesn’t mean others can’t find him hilarious.

And Hartman

Dave Micolichek Debatable. I love their 70s stuff, but there were a lot more sketches that flopped back then, too. Then again, they were all new to the whole thing then, so that's probably to be expected.

marcus do me a favor, And shut your big YAPPER!! j.k. great comment!

With a man in a van, DOWN BY THE RIVER!!!

Wait are you telling me the expression isnt "kitten kaboodle"? *i am 31 years old*

I'll tell you straight up, I know God is real, Chris Farley is loved by everyone, and love is the way. I'm tearing up now, but you're almost certainly right.

He abused drugs. I don’t think that’s a ticket to heaven if it exists.

@@TwoInfinityAndBeyond Turns out, Jesus came to save sinners.

@@TwoInfinityAndBeyond There are a lot of people who abuse or have abused drugs. They all deserve salvation. Don't be that kind of person.

@@TwoInfinityAndBeyond Yes, but being a good person that looked to bring joy and happiness to others certainly is and Chris Farley was definitely that. If only unflawed people could make it to heaven then no one will.

Who was Chris Foley? 🤷🏻‍♂️

@@A_Final_Hitmotivational speaker

The BEST cast ever plus Will Ferrell.

Oh yah. A young Jay Mohr.

@Suffer No Fools The black guy sitting next to Adam Sandler.

This sketch was full of talent with the exception of jay mohr he was Trash

Suffer No Fools yea he was on snl for like 30 years and the only rememberable thing he did was ladies man and that was mediocre at best

Except for Sandler

@@rioeiokha9653 Sandler is hit and miss. Hotel Transylvania did pretty well.

@@midnari he's done too many bad movies

@@rioeiokha9653 Bro fuck you LMAO. You can knock his new shit,but you cant fuck with old sandler.

@@rioeiokha9653 His new movies became more family oriented,but Sandler in general is funny fuck you talking about.

You have to be staring at his eyes to spot it.

I think Chris improvised after Sandler started cracking up.

Wow every day, Jeff? You miss Chris every day?

Norm > Farley Farley is way overrated. Decent in movies. Same fucking character and style just different wardrobe while on SNL. LOOK AT ME I'M FAT LOUD AND DOING A CARTWHEEL DOWN BY THE RIVER

He's not the funniest ever, yes he was good , but let's not big him up now he's dead

@@BradyIsAfagInHeat at least farley was funny, now we have Seth Rogan and Pete Davidson

Nope. Farley just kept him broken during this whole skit

If this came out today, people would bitch, saying "so stupid how they were his kids in one sketch. Fuck this guy, he's not funny. Terrible writing. Old SNL wouldn't do this. Old SNL was the best." Just wait 20 years, and one member of the new cast will be as revered as Farley.

@@Jagger-Tyr_13 Yup, if there's one consistent in life, its boomers complaining how SNL isnt funny anymore.

jay mohr, phil hartman, tim meadows too

Right 😫💖

Literally never seen this this is atomic snl sesh were dead

Um Chris Rock???

And Mike Myers

MelancholicThug you mean chris farley and martin lawrence

Excuse me Martin Lawrence....WTF!!

I think Phil Hartman is the warden guys.

Do u mean martin lawrence and chris farley martin and farley are the ledgends here

@@dimariobell8499 Martin Lawrence is great... but i assume the op mentioned Farley and Hartman because they both died tragically young.

Yeh looks like they made a cut there, wonder what we missed.

Was about to comment on that. Now I’m looking for what was cut. But I’m thinking they spliced this with their dress rehearsal because of something Lawrence said or did in the live performance. Not sure which part was live though.

@@unclecreepy7025 I think you must be right. Def must of spliced it from rehearsal.

I'm guessing the wall didn't break very well when they did it live, and so they spliced in rehearsal footage. I didn't know that was something they did for reruns.

The wall not breaking right doesn’t sound controversial lol. SNL usually will censor the show for the West Coast since they don’t watch the show live. They also remove certain controversial parts. After the original airing, Sinéad O’Conner’s Pope incident was replaced with her dress rehearsal performance. I think the DVD release has the original though, you know, since she was right about the Catholic Church and all that lol.

Also R.I.P. Phil Hartman. 🙏

Not even Martin was safe. I bet “a real James Cagney” was improv.

@@TokyoXtreme I admire his work

*I watched this with tears in my eyes. Iconic Farley!* 🥲🥲

chris knew it too, look at the look he gives adam at 3:03

look at Jay Mohr too hes cracking up

Thank god, someone else noticed. He did it just to break Tim Meadows

Luke 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it. KJV

Called heaven bro. If they fortunate enuff to get in. God bless them all they needed it

@@Davido50 if you say so. I figure something better than some place where you are told that you have to be a really good boy or else to bad for you. Lmao 🤣

Belushi was the all-time great - I want to see his movies again.

Dont forget the the ultimate gilda radner roseanne rosannadanna from SNL she was from the John belushi era on SNL

He gave joy to millions of people. I think that counts. He was imperfect, like the rest of us.

For real. I thought I had seen everything Farley did, but missed this one.

Meanwhile, this is the worst one.

@@burns1210 yeah they really ran with the whole van bit

Because that was the episode Martin was banned from SNL. They will never replay it on tv, especially in this politically correct age.

@@lilylily7072 why was he banned?

Wasnt Martin banned after his monologue performance

Probably, i'm not sure. Sounds about right.

Me either bro

I never knew that Martin guest starred on SNL! This was in '94 and his show Martin was still on the air. This was also one year before him and Will Smith starred in Bad Boys.

Martin made some stupid jokes about women hygiene and it didnt sit well the SNL producers, despite being warned not to make this joke prior to his monologue

LoseYourMarbles bc that his best friend

Yea there isn’t a part of anything part where he didn’t crack up

Too bad the Blues Brothers couldn't crash in too.... Oh yeah John was already gone.

Imagine Bad Boys with Lawrence and Farley, who plays it straighter than usual and gets dramatic at times.

After, his opening monologue no one was

@@BusStopProductions. I have yet to see it. I have searched for it but it's like trying to find BigFoot.

Bus Stop. What was his monologue about?

@@tthephenomenal it was about female hygiene

Davon Gordon-White ohhhh ok
