Title: One of the best of "Best of"s.
Review: I watched the Best of Christopher Walken when it aired on TV. I was thrilled to see that it's being released on DVD because I laughed my butt off. CW nails his comedic timing, and he is the master of straight, cool kat one moment to a crooked grin character the next in this collection. This echoes his roles of playing dry humor in such films as "Pulp Fiction" and "True Romance." My favorite sketches are "The Continental" and the "Cow-Bell" although Will Ferrell made that sketch happen just as much as CW. In "The Continental" I'd swear the second champagne in the face was an unplanned surprise to an unsuspecting Chris, but he maintains character albeit barely which is just as funny as his next line, "You throw cham - pag - na on me once, then shame on you. You throw cham - pag - na on me twice, then shame on me." All this followed by the desperate door-blocking attempts. I've bought a copy for my dad.

Title: So Hilarious!
Review: You can just tell that Walken is enjoying himself while doing these skits! I saw this video many years ago and just watched it again. Definitely had to buy it this time! This has the cowbell skit but also The Continental skits which are Insanely Funny!!!

Title: Some of SNL's Funniest (When You Got a Hankerin' For Cowbell)
Review: There's a reason why Chris Walken has an open invitation to host SNL any time he wants - the guy is hilarious! Certainly one of America's quirkiest actors, Walken delivers comedy in his typical deadpan style. There's just something about his delivery that makes him all the funnier.Of course this DVD contains the infamous "more cowbell" sketch. However, it also contains one of my all-time favorite sketches featuring Tim Meaddows taking a census from Walken: Meaddows: "How long have you lived here?" Walken: "It's hard to say, what time is it?"Also featured is the racy "Colonel Angus" sketch which had me in stiches.

Title: Walken is just BRILLIANT
Review: Christopher Walken is just brilliant with everything. The voice tone, the face reactions, the body language, the punch lines. I mean he is an icon himself. TOTALLY FUN

Title: I need more cow bell!!!
Review: Christopher Walken is one of my favorite actors. I'm decorating my kitchen in cows . I just happen to see this dvd in with the cow bells. I had to get it. Plus the price was great. He is a great actor he'll keep you laughing the whole dvd. My favorite part is the cow bell one lol. I'm gonna probably end up wearing my dvd out from watching it to much.

Title: Simply one of the best actors to hit the SNL stage...
Review: There aren't many words that can describe Christopher Walken, but this DVD does give you a good grasp of some of his greatest moments on SNL. It doesn't have all of his best works, but it does feature a lot of his greats like "Colonel Angus", two episodes of "The Continental", the rare "Boulevard of Broken Balls" scene and at the very end when he was tellin Tom Hanks how it is, when Hanks was hosting SNL. It's simply a great piece that any true Walken fan should have in his collection.

Title: Walken has "high concept" moments
Review: There is probably no stranger group of skits than the best skits of Christopher Walken (not all of which are on this DVD). Attention will be focused on the more popular fare -- his outings as "The Continental" and his skit with Mango. But the more obscure offering of Walken interviewed by a census taker stands as the oddest funny skit in memory. Walken always seems to teeter on the edge of being mistaken for a pedophile or an ax murderer. His strange cadence, shifting eyes and blank look are the perfect affect for the bizarre statements that come from his mouth, one sentence cleverly layering upon the next. And in another favorite skit, the bizarre hysteria of his band manager ("I need more cowbell") plays well, time and time again. It is sometimes hard to explain to the uninitiated why these skits are so funny. They are funny because he does them, and he is so damn wierd.
