Uzbeks!
If you are a fan of perhaps the best comedy show on television, SCTV, you probably already have a smile on your face. Uzbeks were part of the hilarious SCTV universe from Canada that would be considered taboo today in our overly PC culture because they were parodied as being a drunken, shiftless people. Back when SCTV was broadcast during the years 1976 to 1984 the references to Uzbeks caused not a whiff of protest which says something about how times have changed.
David Menzies of Rebel Media in Canada explains why SCTV was so popular and, sadly, why many of today's SJW snowflakes would be incapable of tolerating it.

Funniest show ever (once I got it).
The Fishin’ Musician
Bob and Doug McKenzie
Dang, that was funny, highly entertaining stuff.
It would last a nanosecond in 2018.
A small vise-like object?
I’ve just spent the last hour and a half watching SCTV clips on Youtube. Even at its best, SNL can’t hold a candle to SCTV.
I liked Tex and Edna Boil’s commercials for their various stores.
It will just be the "4 Neat Guys"
Catherine O’Hara was such a hottie back then.
“The Queen Haters lol”
Best song ever:) John Candy’s deadpan expression while playing the drums is priceless.
>>It was “Chump don’ want no hep...” Sheet. (Golly)<<
Thanks
But I specifically remember the original was “Nigga.” That was what made it so funny.
Me too, was upset when he passed.
Too bad John Candy died. He could have latched on to the whole "Girl With The Dragon Tattoo" movies with his own series.
