The Not Ready for Prime Time Podcast: The Early Years of SNL
S02E13 Fran Tarkenton/Leo Sayer, Donny Harper & The Voices of Tomorrow (January 29, 1977)
"I'm going to....8H!" Fresh off his most recent Super Bowl loss (his 3rd in last 4 seasons), Fran Tarkenton takes the stage as host of Saturday Night. The show doesn't let the former NFL-MVP stray too far with a running football gag throughout the episode and Fran playing...well just different versions of Fran Tarkenton all night.
Leo Sayers sings two songs (sadly dancing through one of them) and Donny Harper & The Voices of Tomorrow also lend a song to the night's festivities.
It seems like every episode this season provides at least one classic moment and this uneven outing is no exception. This week's entry is Jane Curtin's famous "Connie Chung" blast during Weekend Update. How great is Jane? Jamie Burwood, from TVShowGraphs.com, joins us to answer this and many more questions.
