Whether you agree with this or not, this video-piece by one of the guys behind "Airplane" is the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.

Because, since the advent of, as well in the wake of, the Tina "Scar" Fey era at SNL, their writing and creativity has been, as the kids say, "teh suck".

Lorne Megalomaniachaels has no sense of anything funny anymore. He's a mogul, and as such, is more interested in maintaining some imagined baseline for the ratings to merely keep his position as producer.

And despite all of the buzz over Justine Timba-lake's "**ck in a Box" the other night, MadTV had an actual shitting/pissing pig! Now that's COMEDY!

This was utterly hysterical. I can't believe it got made.

Wait, how DID it get made? That's virtual blasphemy in Hollywood.
