Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Wayne's World started as a recurring sketch in 1989 and became so popular it spawned two feature films— rare SNL-to-silver-screen success that made 'Party on' a global catchphrase.
Coffee Talk's 'I'm feeling verklempt... I'll give you a topic' structure basically invented the ironic discourse format that now dominates Twitter and late-night comedy.
