Dr. Jack Badofsky's report on different types of orgasms is one of his better ones, with a good setup ("Nobody doesn't like...orgasms") and several very funny jokes, the highlight being "Jawgasms" (which are what Steven Spielberg and Linda Lovelace have).

Dick Ebersol explains that Andy Kaufman's promoted appearances in the last two telecasts didn’t happen because his material is no longer up to SNL's standards. Because of the amount of material cut from the repeat version, I can't form a conclusive opinion on the quality of the show; when I get a copy, I will add my impressions. Piscopo's Froggy is a little too broad and he seems to know it (the Wolfman Jack line). I have cobbled a running order based on the order of screen grabs on the official NBC Saturday Night Live page (which don't match the segment descriptions). (precursor to Comedy Central) in the spring of 1990. The show already seems to be returning to the Mary Gross rage well a bit too often, and the content is a little weaker than before, but Gross gets in a few good digs that get response from the audience (Howard Cosell, Steve Garvey, and Marvin Hamlisch).

We're guessing it wasn't too much of a surprise to Lorne and staff of the time when Blake was later accused of murdering his wife. A lot of the laughs come from the visual jokes: The visual of Murphy, Jordan and Bullock with the dreadlock wigs and surly demeanor is funny in itself, but the best example is the slow reveal of the sole black veteran (Clint Smith) being the one person who enjoys the song. FINAL THOUGHTS:Repeat version: Another below-average show.
