SNL doesn't run new shows during the summer, so this show was a breath of fresh air (especially since I was trapped in a Austin hotel room babysitting my younger cousins at the time).
The special was very well done. It was arranged so well it kept me and my cousins entertained between the commercials. All of Will's best characters were there: Harry Caray, Robert Goulet, James Lipton (the "scrumtralescent" gag is immortal), George W. Bush, and the obligatory Alex Trebek.
Later on in the summer, SNL aired "The Best of Chris Kattan". While Kattan may be one of the best SNL cast members, his special was not as well done, and I was rather disappointed.
A must buy, if they ever release it on VHS or DVD.
