NOTES (4)
ADD NOTES
- Footage from Paul Simon's performance of "You Can Call Me Al" was re-used for an alternate "concept" version of the song's music video. (This is not to be confused with the better-known clip where Simon lip-syncs with Chevy Chase.)
  EDIT SHARE
- Paul Simon joins the Five-Timers club with this episode.
  EDIT SHARE
- The ad spoof "Trojans" is repeated from earlier in the season.
  EDIT SHARE
- As a descendant of the Russian and English Royal families, and daughter of the Princess of Yugoslavia, Catherine Oxenberg is perhaps the only royalty figure to host SNL.
