I remember this 'Leave it to Beaver' skit just killed me when I first saw it..

SCTV was always my favorite over SNL. Although I since came to realize that, as with the Lorne Michaels backstory above, they came from the same comedy tree 🧬

Martin Short to the best of my recollection is the only one in the cast of both Saturday Night Live and SCTV 🇨🇦
