"SNL's 101 Most Unforgettable Moments"

It's just like I've always said: if there's anything better than watching a classic Saturday Night Live sketch, it's watching 9 seconds of it, then hearing what Sheryl Lee Ralph has to say about it. Thanks, E!

Do you...do you like a game show?

Finally...IO West's first comedy game show!

Scott Gimple and Dave Holmes present:
THE FRIDAY FORTY

The game show world is obsessed with useless trivia. Remote Control probed its contestants for 1970s TV facts, The Price is Right makes sure you know the price of Sue-Bee Honey, Jeopardy tests your knowledge of the Peloponnesean War or whatever goddamn hoity-toity thing Alex Trebek’s got on his cards.

But who’s there to make sure you’re paying attention to what’s going on in the world right now? The Friday Forty is the weekly game show that rewards your knowledge of the news of the last seven days. Contestants sit back, sip a 40-ounce, and face a fearsome 40 questions about the events of the last week, fired at them by our hosts and a cast of IO West's best comics. At stake, their reputations and fabulous prizes maybe!

THE FRIDAY FORTY
40 questions. 40 ounces. 7 days.
Friday, December 9 & 16
8pm, 10 clams.
Co-hosted by Scott Gimple and Dave Holmes, with surprise appearances by some of the week's newsmakers.
