SNL's Taco Town
Even when it experiences a slump, Saturday Night Live is still the best. Here are Andy Samberg, Jason Sudeikis and Bill Hader in a brilliant swipe at Taco Bell called Taco Town. I had posted this fake commercial a couple of months ago, but there was a problem in the SNL switching room. Fortunately, Lorne Michaels aired the segment again this past weekend sans glitches.4.6.2006 Addition: Please support the new show Sons and Daughters by visiting my Sons and Daughters video pages, watch the content, review the players and provide appropriate feedback to ABC. I would love to see this show continue.Below are links to three digital formats for this video: Windows Media 9, Quicktime 7 (h.264) and a form which is playable on the Apple Video iPods.

Say what you will... SNL just hasn't been the same since Jimmy Fallon left! (sniff, sniff)

I am really glad someone else out there absolutely loves this segment. When I saw it the first time (the episode where it messed up) I cracked up relentlessly. I have Tivo so I was able to rewind it and watch it again. It's pretty ridiculous and funny the whole time, but the very end when they're shouting Taco Town is what really gets me.
Even relating the skit to my sister weeks later, I found myself cracking up as I neared the end of the tale.
Man I LOVE this spot!

Taco town- it's a perfect skit that shows off something that mindless suburban cattle fatasses and partied out wastoids can both agree on- psychotically huge portions of food to chow on.
Funny how two diametrically opposed subcultures can meet in unison at the supersize.

Thank you so much for having this here; I showed it to my 5th graders at school today (we were doing a display called "Nacho" Ordinary School Year) and although I'm not sure what this says about my sense of humor, they loved it as much as I do.
TACO TOWN!!!!
