This 2000 election was the first one that my young son was "forced" to pay attention to, so he could get news savvy and used to the dark world of politics. We couldn't have chosen a better election, because SNL had us all in stitches between the imitation of Al Gore's "lock-box" speech, to George Bush's word-wrangling, and so much more. Needless to say, this 'hanging-chad' of an election left my son with the impression that politics are hilarious and not as boring as he first thought. Our job as parents was so much easier. Lol! Hope this comes out on DVD.
Old politics still funny today November 17, 2000 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The SNL Presidential Bash is the funniest collection of skits based on a theme (e.g. Halloween, Christmas, specific cast members). Even though all of the Clinton skits are missing(the anthology was produced during the 1992 election), the video contains skits that are funny even if you have superficial knowlege of politics. The video spans from the early years to the golden years (Carvey, Hartman, Farlye, et al.). In the early years, Chevy Chase interprets the bungly President Ford and Dan Akroyd plays a President Carter who knows exact details of every insignificant thing. Dana Carvey is omnipresent. He is in the 1988 presidential debates between George Bush and Michael Dukakis. Jon Lovitz played Dukakis, an emotionless and short candidate who had (in the skit) a mechanical lift to elevate him to the height of the podium. Carvey's Ross Perot charicature has chronic cameos as the host of the special. Perot also had a hillarious infomercial where he explained that his salary would be based upon the growth of the country ("1% growth, I don't see a dime; I'll be ok, I've got $3 billion back home...4% growth, I get $1 billion. That still leaves you up $119 billion.) You can watch this video over and over again. This will always be the best compilation of Saturday Night Live.
