Remster 30 #1 August 17, 2005 You know a joke is past its prime when it gets on TV... During the Canadian Idol show yesterday (yeah... as if any other show wouldnt be as lame... but wait:) hosted by Ben Molroney (avid political annalists here will recognize the name as the son of our ex-prime minister Brian) said, before a commercial break (I'm paraphrasing): Hang on, coz we'll be right back with more cowbell. The joke is dead people.... let it be. EDIT: the TV was on in the background by the way... I'm not admitting to watching that show Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DJL 235 #5 August 17, 2005 QuoteYou know a joke is past its prime when it gets on TV... Considering that it started on a Saturday Night Live skit...I'm surprised there wasn't a movie. It seems like anytime SNL makes a remotely funny joke they run it into the ground and start digging."I encourage all awesome dangerous behavior." - Jeffro Fincher Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waltappel 1 #22 August 17, 2005 QuoteErm. I don't get it. Is it an American thing? On the show Saturday Night Live a while back, they did a skit with Christopher Walken in which he played a record producer. Some of the cast guys played the part of the 80's band Blue Oyster Cult, and IMO did a really brilliant job of it. Will Ferrell played the part of a total goofball musician whose sole instrument was the cowbell. You would have to see it to really appreciate it, but Will Ferrell did an absolutely brilliant job on his part. If you can imagine a cowbell geek doing his best to overshadow everyone in a band, well that's what he was doing. And Christopher Walken? As the record producer he kept saying that each song needed "MORE cowbell!!!!". It really was kind of an obscure sketch unless you are an SNL fan or, like me, just happened to catch it, but it was one of those comedy skits that just kind of sticks with you because it was really well done.
