Great episode. I’ve tried and tried to find that SNL sketch anywhere online. All of the other Carson ones are easily available but the one that upset him seems to be missing from any streaming options. Wondering if this is because of a rights issue (perhaps some music issue) or NBC pulled the sketch out of respect to Carson on future airings, etc?

Glad you liked the Steve Cox episode. My guess is it’s a music issue. I remember the band plays part of the “Partridge Family” theme. Many SNL sketches aren’t online for that reason.
