Matt Snow       9 28 96 Peters 1st SNL w Tom Hanks 9-22-2011 1:12 PM
-------------------------------
September 28, 1996 Peter Works His First Show And Season Premier On Saturday Night Live
With Host Tom Hanks Dancing With Tom In The Roxbury Scene
--------------------------------
As Peter Austin Noto's main biographer I interviewed Peter
during the summer of 2011 regarding the first show Peter ever worked on
Saturday Night Live

We are only 3 days away from the first show of the 2011- 2012 Saturday Night Live season
so I figured it would be a good time to share this


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Matt Snow:
What was it like Peter

Peter Austin Noto:
It was very exciting. for years I tried getting on Saturday Night Live but to no avail
Finally I took a workshop then run by Ryan Shiraki SNL's casting person at the time.
my audition was BANG I nailed it. this was May 1996 with only one more show left
for that season, Jim Carrey was the host for that last show.

At the end of the class Ryan Shiraki informed everyone that nobody would work the last show
of the season and by the time September came around he will have forgotten everyone.

Matt Snow:
How did that make you feel Peter.

Peter Austin Noto:
I was pissed, maybe one of the finest comedy performances I had ever performed
(wish I had it on video tape) and it will amount to nothing.

Well the summer came and went and I honestly just forgot about Saturday Night Live and was just
working on the future. a call came from my service letting me know Saturday Night Live has called
for work and please call them back.

I screamed with joy, fist pumps . yeah ...YEAH....YEAH...
may have been one of the most exciting moments for me business wise

Matt Snow:
How was that first show

Peter Austin Noto:
It has been almost 16 or 17 years so hard to remember getting there
Now back then before 911 it was much easier just to go around the SNL studios

I can remember being in the area where food was served and there was Tom Hanks
so like a spy im checking out the side of his head neck, I think we said hello he was just
like you have seen him on TV ...... a real nice guy.

Matt Snow:
What was next

Peter Austin Noto:
I was cast in more then one scene and I can not remember the 2nd scene but I was in
The Roxbury Scene and at the time was very popular scene with everybody dancing

and a real catch E song "What is Love..Don't Hurt Me" was one of the catch E hooks
Not sure of the name of the song but from time to time you still hear it.

Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell were always in the scene just remember having so much fun
and the excitement of a live show. the set is a little cool most likely keep everybody
awake and to me there's always a mint kind of smell to the studio, it's a good smell
but even today the minute I get off the elevator at 8H there it is ... sweet !!

Matt Snow:
Anything else Pete


Peter Austin Noto:
Yes yes yes, that first show as myself and the other actors in the scene are waiting to get
the signal to go on the stage all of a sudden I see Lorne Michael's ...and I can not believe it
and Im just staring again like that Tom Hanks once over

The next thing I realize all the actors have gone on the stage floor to get ready for the scene
and Im just standing there starring at Lorne Michael's so I just run onto the stage floor
plus I have no idea where I am going maybe I have 30 to 60 seconds to get my place on stage,
well it all worked out.

I know there are bits of tape on my website of me dancing and a few photo's but it was wonderful

To think Im still around working on Saturday Night Live 17 years later is amazing

Matt Snow:
Peter thank you for sharing this with me

Peter Austin Noto:
Thank you Matt Snow, wouldn't it be something if in another 17 years im still working on
Saturday Night Live

I imagine that would be a good thing...........?!-***

To keep the feel of 9 28 1996 Peters 1st Show on SNL w Tom Hanks
found more information regarding that particular show.

Roxbury Guys was one of the scenes Peter was in
nobody else knows what other and I sure do not.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus - Tina Fey, Jimmy Fallon, Rob Riggle, Rachel Dratch, Fred Armisen, David Spade, Amy Poehler, Anthony Michael Hall, Finesse Mitchell, Damon Wayans, Darrell Hammond, Kenan Thompson, Victoria Jackson, Kevin Nealon, Chris Parnell, Horatio Sanz, Don Pardo, Will Forte

The cast listed above I do not think is correct for - 9 28 1996 Peters 1st Show on SNL w Tom Hanks
There must have been a Internet / what ever but known of those names were on during show 1 1996.

Don Pardo has been there since day 1 - he is the announcer of the show
Darrell Hammond was there for 1996 show 1
The rest maybe late 90's early 2000's
David Spade, Anthony Michael Hall Damon Wayans, Darrell Hammond, Victoria Jackson, Kevin Nealon, may have ended the latest 1995

could not find 9 28 1996 Peters 1st Show on SNL w Tom Hanks but did find
reference of the OLD WEST SHOW with Elton John plus Tom Hanks


OLD WEST UNDERLINED

'Saturday Night Live' recap: Host Elton John, plus Tom Hanks, Carmelo Anthony, Jake Gyllenhaal... oh, and a few jokes, too

Saturday Night Live was hosted by Elton John, but the cameos by Tom Hanks, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Carmelo Anthony regularly upstaged him — not that the genial John seemed to mind. After proclaiming, “The bitch is back!,” Johns’ opening monologue about fatherhood hit the notes you’d expect: the infant boy “rejects the breast… taking after both his parents” as well as self-deprecating yuks about his former drug and alcohol usage.



What followed was one of the more shambling versions of SNL, with familiar faces popping up as though serving as replacements for actual attempts at humor.

There were good moments, to be sure. Tom Hanks and New York Knick Carmelo Anthony put in cameo appearances in an ESPN Classic sketch that featured the welcome return of Will Forte as the blissfully dumb co-anchor Greg Stink, with Jason Sudeikis making most of — and the most of — the KY Jelly jokes. It’s always the best use of vulgarity on SNL every time the show chooses to do this sketch.


A sketch involving London being attacked by a dragon (good job, Paul Brittain, as a BBC news anchor) featured Hanks doing a Michael Caine impersonation, with Andy Samberg dressed as Bono so that Elton could make fun of the Spider-Man musical — “Can you smell a bomb tonight?” he crooned, to the tune of a song from his esteemed hit The Lion King.



The British humor continued with one of SNL‘s occasional glimpses behind the scenes of the British Royal Family, with Armisen and Hader as the Queen and Prince Philip. Elton slid in as himself, and the flimsy sketch disintegrated into some fun punk-rock yelling, as various people pogo-ed to music from John, Armisen, and Hader. It was like Monty Python meets the Sex Pistols, if rather less awesome than that team-up sounds.



The Digital Short was a musical variation on “Laser Cats” in which Andy Samberg and Bill Hader were almost obscured by guest stars Elton, Hanks, and Carmelo. “Laser Cats” is always Samberg’s loopiest, most absurdist Short (which is part of the joke — it’s why Lorne Michaels always “rejects” it), and this one was more fun to watch for the guest stars than the craziness.



“Weekend Update” was pretty terrible, the terribleness interrupted briefly by Samberg’s well-done Nic Cage impersonation (good voice, good make-up) paired with Jake Gyllenhaal showing up to give his new movie Source Code an opening-weekend box-office plug.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________



The lazy recurring theme was Elton John’s homosexuality, whether he was playing a queen-y movie critic with Taran Killam (a sort of white version of In Living Color‘s old “Men on Film” stand-by) or sauntering into an Old West saloon in a bright turquoise cowboy outfit. Elton himself was fine — frequently, in fact, very good — delivering his lines, but, sheesh, those lines… I did like the Claudette Colbert jokes during the film-critic session, though.



___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Hanks and Anthony each introduced musical segments featuring Elton playing dueling pianos with Leon Russell, who pounded out some fine example of what we used to call rock & roll.



What did you think of this week’s Saturday Night Live? I was entertained without actually laughing very much. Agree? Disagree?
