I remember the SNL one. It was meant to be a variation of the abbott and costello routine. It was never meant to copy it, just to apply it to rock. I thought it was side splitting for two reasons....1) you usually don't see rock music satirized well, and 2) it was making fun of the routine.
As for the Animaniacs, chalk it up to generational differences. I used a Monty Python skit to illustrate something to my son the other day, and we both realized we'd seen it on the "Amanda Show" also. So as Pete Townsend says..."Everything I do has been done before"...
So what I want to know is...why in the hell did they remake "Alfie"?
