Flopcast 695: SNL FlopFight Part 3 - Absolutely Marvelous

A few months back, to celebrate Saturday Night Live's 50th anniversary, we did a whole FlopFight tournament of SNL characters. (If you're keeping score, the winner was Will Forte's Falconer. Of course.) But since so many classic characters didn't get to play, we thought we'd just do it again. And since this is Dragon Con weekend, we thought we'd bring in a special guest: Dragon Con American Sci-Fi Classics Track co-director Joe Crowe! Joe will help us sort through this new field of goofy competitors, which just might include a visit to Fernando's Hideaway, a terrifying ride with a driving cat, and a showdown with the man they call... Johnny Canal. So join us and learn which SNL weirdo is advancing to next week's final round. Meanwhile, if your doorbell rings, go ahead and answer it. It's probably just a candygram.
