Never understood why this skit was supposed to be funny but different strokes for different folks.

The Bill Murray as the lounge singer act doing Star Wars was a hoot! https://youtu.be/ljiVRV5B5i8 (Star Wars bit starts at 5:50)

Every town had a greek joint once upon a time. That's how George Stephanopoulos met Bill Clinton, serving him "cheeburgers" in the family restaurant.

That’s funny considering George grew up in the church due to his father being a priest.

TOO FUNNY...After all these years, “No fries...cheeps” still cracks me up...

Fun way to order at Micky D’s too...cheeburger, cheeburger, cheeburger.
Stupid but somehow funny.

Wish I could find the beans restaurant skit.

“Beans, beans, they’re good for the heart, good for the heart!”
