[edit] Robert Goulet
Will Ferrel does this skit, it is hilarious, I wish someone would add it.
[edit] Question
Does "Fericito" in 2003 refer to Show Biz Grande Explosion!? --Jacquelyn Marie 13:19, 21 October 2005 (UTC)
- Never mind -- found the answer to my own question. [1]. Thanks to whoever has been reorganizing this page. It's far more useful now.
You're welcome. I've been working on it for some time now, and it's pretty much finished. All I have to do now is create pages for all these characters. If you have a particular sketch you're partial to, and it has a red link, by all means, write something about it.
[edit] How to present information?
You know... this page is already rediculously well-done... but what if we had a section where we organize by cast member? Or is that overkill? --Jacqui ★ 22:44, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
- It could work only if we divide all three sections up into separate articles. I'm not sure exactly how to do that. - Leadpipevigilante

- Nevermind. I decided it was a good idea. Do you think it works the way I divided them?
[edit] AfD on an article linked to on this page
For anyone who is interested, there is currently an AfD going on over Gay Hitler. Jacqui ★ 15:39, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Categories for Characters
I brought this up on the Gay Hitler page, but if anybody has any suggestions for categories that can include a number of these characters or sketches, please suggest them. I was originally planning on writing a stub for each of them in due time, but I think it would be smarter to categorize, and have larger articles. Possible categories:
- Characters Appearing on Weekend Update
- Emily Litella
- Roseanne Roseannadanna
- Point/Counterpoint
- Father Guido Sarducci
- Chico Esquela
- Big Vic Ricker
- Dr. Jack Badofsky
- Siobhan Cahill
- Patti Lynn Hunnsacker
- Dwight MacNamara
- Worthington Clotman
- Wayne Huevos
- Lew Goldman
- Buddy Young, Jr.
- Nathan Thurm
- Babette
- Mr. Subliminal
- A Grumpy Old Man
- Annoying Man
- Hollywood Minute
- Queen Shenequa
- Jan Brady
- Cajun Man
- Buster Jenkins
- Opera Man
- Hank Fielding
- Bennett Brauer
- The British Fops
- Joe Blow
- Gary MacDonald
- Lenny The Lion
- Cinder Calhoun
- Dominican Lou
- Gunner Olsen
- Jacob Silj
- Jasper Hahn
- Comedienne Jeannie Darcy
- Gay Hitler
- Drunk Girl
- Fericito
- Tim Calhoun
- Billy Smith
- Jorge Rodriguez
Tommy Flanagan, The Pathological Liar appeared on Update, but I wouldn't call him an Update character. He made 18 appearances, so maybe he just warrants his own page.
Other suggestions?
[edit] Recurring?
Either the name of this page should be changed or some of these should be dropped. Some are single appearance sketches and (while often pretty good ones) don't realy deserve mention any more than any otehr joke/routine on a comedy show, and are not "recurring". I mean, that Barry Gibb talk show was pretty funny, but I believe it was only done once. -R. fiend 03:47, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- Quite right. Dan Ackroyd's Super Bass-o-Matic was a single sketch, not a recurring one, and John Belushi's H & L Brock recurred within a single episode but never made another appearance. There are several others. This page needs weeding out. 12.22.250.4 18:48, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
