Saturday Night Live FAQ: References
====================================
This is a list of written references for Saturday Night Live. It
is intended as a pointer for those who want to learn more about the
show.
-1-
Saturday night: a backstage history of Saturday night live (1986)
by Doug Hill and Jeff Weingrad
I highly recommend this book. It gives a detailed, in-depth
analysis of the show from its beginning to 1984 or so. Most
of the information comes from interviews and the authors view-
ing old episodes on videotape.
-2-
SNL! The world of saturday night live
by Hal Schuster
I don't not recommend this book on the whole. It has some
interesting information and pictures, but it is poorly written
and has many errors (including at least three different spellings
of Aykroyd). Another glaring error is in the biography section.
The page devoted to John Belushi has a picture of his brother,
Jim. If you can check this book out from a library, go ahead and
get it. But be sure to take all the information in it with a
shaker of salt.
Please send any corrections or new information to dkrause@uci.edu.
