More Welk madness on SNL

Junice has struck again.

Recently on Saturday Night Live, the show opened with yet another parody of Lawrence Welk and his Music Makers, this time featuring Melissa McCarthy, the star from the sitcom Mike and Molly.

Here, we have a fellow I assume is pretending to be Dick Dale joining the sisters from the Finger Lakes in a song about autumn.

Enjoy!

Junice strikes again!

It's been a while, but we have another Lawrence Welk parody on Saturday Night Live....

Last night, Junice and her sisters from the Finger Lakes made magic on the small screen, this time with SNL's featured host this week, the Piano Man himself, Sir Elton John.

Here's the video in all their comedic glory....

Return of the Meryl Sisters

They're back....the Lawrence Welk Show on Saturday Night Live!

I was able to record SNL's season finale on my DVR, and they did not disappoint!

Once again, Fred Armisen did a brilliant job as the Maestro. The gang at 30 Rock did their own version of a popular Welk show theme "Springtime".

On tonight's show, it's Will Ferrell as handsome baritone Ted Nethers.....a cross between Steve Smith, Ken Delo, Tom Netherton and Jack Imel.

And of course....our favorite sister act from the Finger Lakes, the Meryl Sisters!

....which also includes Judis, baby doll hands and all.

Man, it was funny and entertaining....and talk about perfect timing. I'll be at Bear Creek on Wednesday to see Gail, Sandi and Mary Lou, maybe I'll ask them if they seen this episode.
