The Super Bowl Shuffle

The song was released a month before Super Bowl XX and actually made it
as high as #41 on the Billboard hot 100 and sold over a half a million

Chesterfield 101 A Silly Milimeter Longer
In 1967 the rage in cigarettes was to make them longer. Chesterfield was one of the biggest brands at the time and they countered with the “Silly Millimeter Longer” as the brand and catch phrase. Chesterfield is named for Chesterfield County Virginia where much of their tobacco was grown. The brand is still made today but is mostly popular in Europe.
SNLs Coffee Talk
Linda Richman’s (Mike Myers) hero was Barbra Streisand. She
constantly “dedicated” the show to her, often claiming her to be the
greatest actress in all of history. In what could be considered to be
the sketch’s most memorable moment, Myers was joined by two special
guests Madonna and Roseanne Barr as two other Jewish women (and they
were authentic, take my word!). They discussed Streisand’s movie, The
Prince of Tides, on the show. Near the end of the sketch, the women
compared Barbra to “buttah”-and suddenly, a voice announced, “All this
talk about food, I’m getting hungry, girls.” It was Streisand herself in
a surprise appearance; none of the actors had any idea that she was to
appear. All three managed to remain in character as the audience went
wild. Though Streisand only stayed long enough to give each character a
kiss and wave to the audience, the moment has become one of the most
memorable in the show’s history.

Archie Bunker Alone
Archie Bunker’s Place was a reasonably successful continuation of All In The Family. Jean Stapleton, who played Archie’s wife (Edith), appeared in six episodes before deciding to leave the show. The show’s writers dealt with her departure by making Archie a widower. This is the conclusion of a special one-hour episode from December 1980 in which Archie had to deal with Edith’s death. Warning: It’s a tear-jerker.
