The crème-de-la-crème of America's funniest comics will be unleashed in the UK this summer, launching a series of brand new live stand-up DVDs featuring headline acts and comedy legends.
Four of the finest comedians - Adam Sandler, Chris Rock, Eddie Murphy and Will Ferrell - will kick off the series which showcases side-splitting precision comedy and no-holds-barred stand-up.
Every hilarious skit will leave you wanting more:
Dubbed the Jerry Lewis of the 90"s, Adam Sandler spent five years on Saturday Night Live, re-defining what it meant to be one of its stars and giving the show some of its most inspired characters and hilarious moments.
Adam Sandler Live features Opera Man, Cajun Man, Canteen Boy, the Gap Girl and many other completely original inventions that were always different and always funny.
Includes guests Alec Baldwin, David Duchovny, Courtney Cox, Shannen Doherty, Kirstie Alley and Michael Keaton plus SNL regulars Chris Farley, David Spade and Rob Schneider.
Chris Rock was one of the freshest, rawest comedians in Saturday Night Live history who then went on to become one of the greatest comic minds of his generation.
Expressing his feelings on society idiosyncrasies in an irreverent and unapologetic manner, Chris Rock Live also features The Dark Side with hilarious talk-show host Nat X, I"m Chillin and Def Jam - as well as a guide on how to Survive the Apollo.
The DVD contains bonus material including outtakes and scenes that were cut after dress rehearsal and never seen until now.
Eddie Murphy is the biggest star to emerge from the series who has gone on to achieve international superstardom. By taking a simple idea and running wild with it, Eddie Murphy Live is the comic at his best.
Murphy struts his stuff as Gumby, Buckwheat, Little Richard Simmons and enjoys a dip in James Brown"s Hot Tub. Pay a visit to Mr. Robinson s Neighbourhood and see the best of Velvet Jones, Stevie Wonder, Solomon & Pudge and more. Plus there"s extra material, including outrageous outtakes and bloopers that have never been collected until now.
Will Ferrell made a name for himself with his impersonations but while he may look like the guy next door, there"s nothing ordinary about his comic creations. Demonstrating his fearlessness and inducing hard laughs, he dominated the show with characters as different as Craig the Cheerleader and President George W. Bush.
See the best of Celebrity Jeopardy, Bobbi and Marty Culp, Morning Latte and Robert Goulet - along with plenty of yelling, near-nudity and more cowbell. Plus there's extra material, including Will s favourite scenes that were cut after dress rehearsal and never seen before now.
The award-winning comedy-variety show Saturday Night Live served as the perfect platform for young talent; propelling many of its performers to achieve huge success and fame. It is one of the longest-running network television programmes in America.
