The Best Star Trek Movie With The TOS Crew

[ChristopherPike]

Orcus: It's Will Farrell, playing a member of the band Blue Oyster Cult, in a Saturday Night Live skit spoofing the band and VH-1's documentaries on bands. It's supposed to be a behind-the-scenes look at how they recorded Don't Fear the Reaper. The skit also featured Christopher Walken playing a producer who keeps asking Farrel's character to give him more cowbell (play it louder). In my sig, there's a link to a YouTube video with one small part of that skit. From time to time, people will post the whole skit, but it gets taken down after a few days. Look for it from time to time and you might see the whole skit. It's hella funny! -- RR

Sweet: that's the one. Cheers dude...

Thanks, Red Ranger! I have to admit I'd been wondering about that too. "Don't Fear the Reaper" is one of my classic Rock faves, so I really ought to see that sometime. We don't get Saturday Night Live here in England... so YT is the main go-to. NBC/Universal really clamp down on uploading whole sketches, as I once ran the complete 7-8 minute Belushi SNL Star Trek sketch... before receiving several threatening emails about it.

I had a quick look on that: the whole skit is there at the moment...
