The Not Ready for Prime Time Project: An SNL Retrospective

The Early Years of SNL: S04E09 Elliott Gould/Peter Tosh (12/16/78)

Two Pints Productions, Inc.

Elliott Gould returns to SNL for the 4th time to handle the hosting duties for S4’s Christmas episode. He brings with him Peter Tosh as musical guest (who, in turn, brings along a very famous friend) as well as comedy legends Bob and Ray as special guests showing everyone just how it is done.

Gould keeps the show’s good vibe going heading into the holiday season hiatus. It is a solid outing as we are treated to some great Christmas themed sketches (including an excellent St. Mickey’s Knights of Columbus), the introduction of some new recurring characters, and of course…a song and dance number for his monologue (this time w/ Garrett).
