Editor's Note
Jon Lovitz's distinctive, nasal voice and popular recurring characters made him one of the best-loved comedians on SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, which he starred in from 1985-'91. After leaving the show he found success as an actor on the big screen, playing supporting but integral roles in A LEAGUE OF THEIR OWN and HAPPINESS, before starring in such films as CONEHEADS, HIGH SCHOOL HIGH, and THE STEPFORD WIVES. This collection is a selection of his best moments from the SNL days, featuring all of his best-loved personas, including Evelyn Quince, host of "Tales of Ribaldry;" Tommy Flanagan the Pathological Liar; The Annoying Man; Hannukah Harry; The Devil; and of course, The Master Thespian, reputedly based on Lovitz's own memories of a pompous professor he once had. Lovitz's best moments from the show comprise this selection.
