You may know him from such roles as Troy McClure and Lionel Hutz on the Simpsons, and possibly from his role on the show News Radio (where he was eventually replaced by fellow SNL cast member Jon Lovitz), but SNL contains funny Phil Hartman moments to rival his best in those shows. And at the low price of $5.50 from the Walmart sale bin, could not be passed up.
Included here are a wide variety of skits. I had no idea he could play such a funny Frankenstein, for one. Unfortunately I'm having a hard time remembering the exact skits (this was the first of the 3 SNL collections I watched yesterday), but I remember laughing at almost all of them.
The special features are great as well, including a deleted skit (one of the 25 minutes of extra skits they cut during dress rehearsal before every night's show), as well as a blooper reel and Phil Hartman's audition to join Saturday Night Live, which is absolutely hilarious. He does several celebrity impressions, spot on, but speaks in German. His wasn't the first John Wayne impression I'd ever heard, but definitely the first in German.
Definitely worth the $5.50 price. Probably worth paying $10 or even $15 for.
