    I have a fairly large and extensive "Saturday Night Live" collection. I have been working on it since early 1997, when I was eighth grade. I am now twenty-three and a college grad, and the collection keeps on rolling!

    Here's what I have amassed in the last nine years:

    Starmaker Videos (Eatontown, NJ-based company that stopped making the videos in 1999)
    Best of 1975, 1976, 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1993
    1992 Presidential Bash
    15th Anniversary Special
    SNL Goes Commercial Vol. 1
    Wayne's World Special
    Best of Robin Williams
    Best of Saturday Night Live 1985-1980 Vol. 3

    NBC Home Video (1998-2003, 2006-)
    Bad Boys of Saturday Night Live (DVD)
    Best of Steve Martin (VHS)
    Best of Chris Rock (VHS)
    Best of Adam Sandler (VHS)
    Best of 1996-1997 (VHS)
    Best of Game Show Parodies (VHS)
    SNL Presidential Bash 2000 (VHS)
    Best of David Spade (first release under NBC Home Video's new DVD collection)
    Best of Alec Baldwin (the other 1st release under NBC home Video DVDs)

    Lions Gate DVDs (2003-2006)
    Best of Dana Carvey
    Best of Phil Hartman
    Best of Jon Lovitz
    Best of Mike Myers
    Best of Chris Kattan
    Best of Jimmy Fallon
    25th Anniversary Special
    The Best of Molly Shannon
    Saturday Night Live The First Five Years

    I also have tapes from the 1997-1998 season until now of various episodes, specials (some of which I now own on DVD, some I don't). I may begin to weed this collection out in the near future, though I like having the videos around--there are some good late 90s commercials on the tapes).

    I also have the books "Saturday Night Live the First Twenty Years," "Live From New York: An Uncensored History of SNL," a t-shirt, a drink tumbler, various magazines.

    Ok, this is a little supurfulous, but I really enjoy my collection.

    Does anyone else own anything "SNL" that is interesting? Comments are welcome!!

      Yes, but do you have Saturday Night Live With Howard Cosell on ABC. Guests such as The Bay City Rollers, Frank Sinatra, John Denver, John Wayne, Evel Knievel, Jimmy Connors, Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier tried to save the show, but to no avail.

      and, about having the ABC one, I was just kidding, unless it's actually avaliable somewhere. 1975 was before my time.

        No way I don't have that one--that is also before my time (I'm 23--I was born in October 1982). And besides, wasn't that supposed to be horrible? LOL!!!

            Very cool--but 1975 was definitely before our time--thankfully not foo far ahead.
