The program, Saturday Night Live: Fifty Years Through a Jewish Lens, will be presented at 7 pm tonight at Congregation Anshei Emuna, 16189 Jog Road, Delray Beach, Florida 33446. Admission is free, but registration is advised.
Join Al for a hilarious trip back to the funniest Jewish-themed comedy sketches that Saturday Night Live has featured throughout its 50-year history. Though not an exclusively Jewish program, SNL’s Jewish writers and performers have ensured that Jewish themes and attitudes have made Jewish audiences adopt it as their own.
As SNL enters its 50th year, this program will include video clips of a Purim sketch with Mayor Ed Koch, Jon Lovitz as Hanukkah Harry saving Christmas, Adam Sandler singing his signature Hanukkah song, and Andy Samberg as the Jewish Willy Wonka with Ben Stiller in a world of Jewish deli. Watch mock commercials for Jewess Jeans and Hanukkah Hymns, Howard Cosell’s Bar Mitzvah, Jerry Seinfeld as a Yeshiva basketball star, and a Jewish version of “It’s a Wonderful Life.”
Here's a sample of what you'll see:
