gonna be SICK! or such colorful variations as "I'm gonna honk. I'm gonna paint this room like an esophageal Jackson Pollock canvas." Memorable topics of discussion included "Effigies: are they really worth the trouble? Why not burn the real people?" and "odd things I've found in me vomit after rioting". In one episode David Hyde Pierce plays a character claiming to be an American "tennis hooligan". "I choose the player I hate, and when they're about to serve I do something distracting like yawn or shift in my seat. One time I coughed really loud." Debuted January 21, 1995. Appearances Perspectives with Lionel Osbourne In this mid-to-late 1990s series of sketches, Lionel Osbourne (played by Tim Meadows) hosts a seven minute television series primarily dealing with African-American issues and based in New York City. In the skit's universe, the show starts at 4:53 a.m. early Sunday mornings on WNBC-TV, which carries it before signing off for maintenance to maliciously comply with the FCC's public affairs commitments. Osbourne is generally clueless to the accomplishments of the guests on his show, regularly asking them ill-informed and obtuse questions which confuse the guest. Also, Osbourne pauses after nearly every dialogue sequence with his guest to announce the time and to re-identify the show, which would always follow the format: "It's (time) in the a.m., and you're watching Perspectives. I'm your host, Lionel Osbourne. With me today is (guest).", followed by recap of the conversation so far which declines in quality with each repetition. Debuted January 21, 1995. In one sketch, Osbourne interviewed Dr. Emory Coleman (played by David Alan Grier), host of the television show Viewpoint - which was identical to Perspectives (except that it aired on WCBS-TV an hour later), but with Coleman as host and Osbourne as the guest. The sketch repeatedly cut back and forth between Perspectives and Viewpoint, causing even the hosts to become confused as to which show they were on. Appearances Zagat’s Chris Farley and Adam Sandler play married couple Beverly and Hank Gelfand. Beverly goes through the Zagat Restaurant Guide and talks about all the possibilities on where to eat, while Hank grows weary and disinterested. Debuted February 25, 1995.
