Quotes
Wayne Campbell: Lorne Michaels. What can be said about Lorne Michaels that he himself has not already said, about himself? I mean, the man is a genius, for forty years.
Dana Carvey: Minus five.
Wayne Campbell: Yup. He would say things like
[picking up a glass of white wine]
Wayne Campbell: , okay, 'Well, it got a laugh, but did it get the right laugh?'
Dana Carvey: [imitating Lorne] 'Um, It becomes that thing of like, well, you're really glad it's Thursday.'
Wayne Campbell: Yeah. 'Mick liked it; Paul hated it; Marxie didn't see it. The Stings laughed. What do you think, Loren?'
Dana Carvey: 'Well, Lorne, I've got to go with Paul. I thought it was like really, really, really soft.'
Wayne Campbell: And... Scene! Yes!
Wayne Campbell: [speaking toward off-stage] Lorne, Lorne, we love you!
Dana Carvey: Yes. Yes. One day, one day I hope to meet him.
Wayne Campbell: [pointing to Garth and nodding] You'd like him. Nice guy.
