This refers back to an earlier skit where Burt wore a giant cowboy hat.

Alex Trebek: Come on, that's way out of line, but.. [ Reynolds walks up to Trebek wearing a large hat ] Mr. Reynolds, what are you doing?

Burt Reynolds: Ha-ha! Yeah, I found this backstage, an over-sized hat. It's funny.

Alex Trebek: No, it's not!

Burt Reynolds: Sure it is. It's funny. It's funny because it's ah, bigger than, ah.. [ clears throat ] ..you know, a normal hat.

I think the Kathie Lee impression that Wiig does is pure genius - almost vicious. She is a great physical comedienne. Fearless.

Oh my god, Target Lady is the worst. Brings down the show, I hate those sketches.

Will Ferrell is one of my ultimate favorites on SNL and no matter what movie he is in. I recently watch Wedding Crashers and when he comes down the stairs with nunchucks I always laugh my a-- off!

Especially when Alex said "Let go of it", then he pauses and lets go of the jar.

I was crying.

The constant use of the pen as a mic was amazing as well.
