Saturday Night Live opening commercial
From open-encyclopedia.com - the free encyclopedia.
The Saturday Night Live opening commercial is usually a spoof of a real commercial found on television at that time, and is commonly shown after the host's opening monologue. The gag generally replaces the product for sale with something fantastical, or alters the characters involved to provide comedy.
