Tivo Time Travel to Late 80’s Videoblogs
2 Aug 2006 in RocketBoom, Saturday Night Live, Tivo by Garrick
Some how, early last month, Tivo found a Saturday Night Live from 1989 and obediently recorded it.
Dana Carvey, Dennis Miller (does the map behind him remind you of Rocketboom?), Al Franken’s one-man mobile uplink (early video-blogger?). This is the SNL I caught on satellite TV working late as a farmhand.
Low budget effects, talent cracking themselves up, it all felt very videobloggy. Coincidence?
Doubtful.
Lots of jokes about George Bush (Senior) - the jokes are still funny. In sad, cynical, ‘things have gotten worse’ kinda way.
As and added bonus, 10,000 Maniacs - for Jen, I preferred Edie Brickell and the New Bohemians.
