  • Norm Macdonald and Chris Farley. Two greats from the SNL 90'S that will be greatly missed.

    Every time he adjusts his belt, his superpowers increase 😂
  • @jahinmahbub8237
    Matt Foley was written by Bob Odenkirk??? OMG. The man's a certified genius.
  • @Wheelo40
    Tells one of the top working drummers of the day, “Zip It! Your show business antics won’t get you Jack squat!” Perfect.
  • @GameTime-yj6qv
    A comedic genuis... his physical comedy and agility was insane, especially for a man his size.
  • @teddyray8597
    I watched an episode of "Dark Side of Comedy" about Chris Farley a while back. He was a brilliant comedic talent, but his life was very sad. I'm a big guy myself and watching this, I see the insecurity behind the jokes and I can relate. My heart aches for him.

    The Chevy Chase Show was his short lived talk show that lasted from September 7, 1993 to October 15, 1993. This Conan clip aired 3 days later on October 18, 1993.
  • @assmane999
    Lol when he starts trying to motivate the curtain 😂
  • @jackbauer4186
    Farley's comedic timing is what is probably his most underrated asset. Just look at how absolutely perfect he was at 1:35. They probably didn't event rehearse this, either because Chris was such a good improvisational actor.
  • @mj.ray0898
    It's crazy to think I watched Chris Farley as a kid and now I'm almost older than he was when he died... such a sad end for someone so funny, Matt Foley always gets a laugh no matter how many times I've seen Farley do it
  • I don't know how I missed that Odenkirk wrote these with Farley. That makes SO much sense!
  • @BeardOfRiker
    “Now that Chevy Chase isn’t in the picture!” Wow, that brings back memories.
  • @billdover3165
    Truly there will never be anybody as funny and if witty as Chris Farley in my lifetime. I grew up watching this man and his loss to this day still sting. Thankfully we still have clips of him and his movies. Chris Farley is gone too soon but he will never be forgotten.
  • @j_bird27
    I never knew this skit existed! This is timeless, man.
  • @dustydean56
    I'm out of breath just watching him !! He was the best .... RIP
