If I Only Had An...

One of the great skits from the old Dana Carvey Show...
Premise: when The Wizard Of Oz was running too long, the producers eliminated one of the characters from the "yellow brick road" sequence. (Yes, that's Steven Colbert Steve Carrell as the Tin Man).

Ignore the frame grab seen below. That's Mary Todd Lincoln in "First Ladies As Dogs," an equally funny premise and skit from the same episode.

When the clip ends, you'll have the option to watch the entire show online. And other episodes as well. Great options to have. Or you can get the entire series for 18 bucks on Amazon.

He's In The Cast Of Supporting Players And So Can You

I had forgotten that Dana Carvey's short-lived TV show had such a brilliant supporting cast, many destined for greatness.

This sketch is one of the funniest I've ever seen. (Wait for it; the last few seconds of the preceding sketch will hit your screen first)
