SNL Dysfunctional Family Christmas
Thanks, Intern Paul, for reminding me of this gem. I think my favorite is “Carol of Intimacy.”
Happy Christmas to all who celebrate! I’ll be spending the holiday with friends and The Doctor. I’m promised a gay men’s choir somewhere in there.
I love that skit!
I also thank my lucky stars that I managed to record this gem on VHS years ago, as I’ve never been able to find it online or in a DVD collection:
“Mark Jensen’s Family Christmas” (Season 28/2002)
Will Ferrell plays Mark Jensen, hosting his annual Christmas special from Aspen, Colorado. It’s all sweaters and singing until a motorized platform won’t stop rotating, causing everyone to get very, very ill. It’s a simple gross-out joke, but it’s the kind of slow-burn into madness that Ferrell is so gifted at.
