Rating:  - EXCELLENT
I have 10 of the "Best of...on SNL" and David Spade's is definitely in my top three favorites. Lots of "Spade in America" skits which are my favorite. Especially the one with him playing Teri Hatcher and Teri Hatcher playing him. Definitely a must-buy!
Rating:  - Not The Best Of Spade!!!
[...]I specifically have both Will Ferrell Volumes, as well as Best of Farley and Kattan, and now Spade. While there are always good skits and bad ones, you would think that a DVD with the running time of just over an hour or so can be filled up with the BEST OF somebody's work. This especially applies to someone who was on SNL for six years like Spade, although his last season only in the Spade in America segments. Here's a brief skit rundown of this DVD:
1.Martha Stewart skit which is actually one of the best on the DVD, from his guest hosting appearance in 2005 in which Stewart has recently been released from prison. (Spade as Stewart).
2.Opening Monologue from another guest hosting appearance.
3.A Salon hair ad which is actually pretty funny.
4.Dick Clark Productions skit in which Spade plays an obnoxious secretary who won't let anyone in to see Clark. Gets old quickly, but Phil Hartman steals the skit as Jesus, at the end.
5.Vin Diesel skit. This one had it's moments, but was also from his 2005 guest hosting show.
6.Total Bastard Airlines (Buh Buy). Spade plays an airline steward who is, yes, a bastard, and it's pretty good.
7.Spade plays Tom Petty to Dana Carvey's Bob Dylan. This was okay, but starts to give you a headache after awhile.
8.Mall Girls skit with Sandler and Farley. Not real funny in my opinion.
9.Sean Penn Celebrity Roast. Really not that funny on the ... Read More
Rating: - Hits and misses, but better than most
The "Best of" SNL releases are a mixed bag with a lot of bombs and stinkers, but a few good ones. This is a great mixture of new and old stuff, and it really is some of David's better moments. His snippy receptionist (later the basis for his character on "Just Shoot Me") is in a hilarious skit involving Rosanne, and the skit where he and Teri Hatcher swap places in an interview for "Spade in America" is classic. He definitely has the best chemistry with Chris Farley and they play off each other well. It's also hilarious to see David as Joe Dirt show up again for a skit.
As in any SNL collection, there are some horrible stinkers. The PBS Afterschool Special segment is dumb, his interview with Sean Penn is a waste of time, and a skit involving the Weekend Update doesn't work. But compared to the second volume of the Will Ferrell best of collection, this one's perfect. All in all, one of their better releases, but with the wealth of material to choose from in the years he was on the show, you'd think they'd have all been winners.
