25 years but it still feels like yesterday. We miss you, Phil.

If you look closely in the background you can see this guy "Has all his ducks in a row". Love the subtle humor in that.

Phil Hartman was far and away the most complete talent in the history of Saturday Night Live.

As someone with OCD I just want to say everything this man did made complete sense to me.

[kristashafer]

I see I am not alone in still missing Phil Hartman. He was immensely talented. He made everything look so effortless.

And those defective pepper chunks sit in the landfill to this day, hermetically sealed for eternity.

What a legend. RIP. This sketch is absolute comedy gold—I remember this airing live and brand new.

God he was just so insanely talented and funny. Imagine all the incredible work he would have done if he lived longer. Rest in Peace 🙏

He was far away, the most natural talent SNL ever produced. If there was ever alumni that could’ve easily won best leading actor in a film, it was Phil Hartman.

[publiusvelocitor]

Phil Hartman, Bill Murray, and Eddie Murphy were my all-time favorite SNL players. Losing Hartman was such a tragedy.

[spankynater]

That little laugh he gives after “now there’s some garbage you can live with.“

[tonybensley]

25 years since we lost Phil Hartman and so much in our world has changed! RIP, Phil. 😢💔

[sylviacrawford]

"this way it won't leak into the other garbage" I will never get sick of this man!
Come on! Tape despenser cozy! 2021 needs some Gene. And some Phil. :) ❤️

I suddenly understood how I am so annoying to other people while I am in the kitchen.

[ThePhillyFan]

Phil Hartman was an SNL legend! Always loved watching him when I was growing up.

[maxrochful]

The key here is to finish cleaning the kitchen before the raw ingredients spoil. That's the trick.

[geothon]

He was my customer when I worked in Encino. Saw him two days before his death. RIP Phil.

[carolyndarley]

I've just realized that nothing ever got prepared on this show...but, the upside is--his kitchen is spotless!!

[AbandonedMines]

LOL at, “As a matter of fact, this stovetop could use a lick and a promise while we’re at it.”

[Markmywords]

Excellent the way his retentiveness gently accelerates and nothing gets cooked at all!
