Remembering Phil Hartman
To honor what would have been Philip Edward Hartman’s 65th birthday, let’s watch one of his greatest performances that is currently available for embedding. (I would have put up this one were such a thing possible.) Once a year or so, given the churn and turnover of the Internet, a site will post Hartman’s audition reel for “Saturday Night Live” as if they were the first ones to discover it; if you want to get an early start on its 2014 appearance, today’s a good day for it.
