Best Of SNL

Comedy Central has been showing the best of snl's best players recently. The first one they showed was the best of Chris Rock, this coming week it's the best of Will Ferell, the week after that it will be the best of Adam Sandler, and the week after that it will be the best of Jimmy Fallon. I think they'll probably show the best of John Belushi or Chris Farley the week after that. I sure hope they do. Me and my brother are huge Belushi/Farley fans. Our favourite Chris Farley sketches are the Chippendales Audition, all Matt Foley sketches, the Bennett Brauer sketches (you know, the guy who does the "air quotes") and the Chicago Bears fan sketches (Daaa bears). Maybe they'll show the best of John Goodman, we like him. He's on the same level as likability to as John Candy-he sounds like a very sweet man.

Jay: A True Hero

Jay Leno will be leaving the Tonight Show next month and I for one am going to be very very sad and so is my brother. We are going to miss him so much. Jay's funny, charming and cool. We don't think the Tonight Show will ever be the same when Conan O Brian takes over. I hope NBC decides to keep Jay. It's going to be such sweet sorrow seeing him leave. He's a good friend of ours. Despite the numerous criticism people have been saying about him- he is a very nice guy. I had a blast playing him in Leno. It will be sad to see him go. There's no comic half as funny, perfect, he's a pure paragon. You can ask any Tom, Dick or Stanley and they'll tell you whose show they would rather be on. Jay's probably one of the only guys who has a swell cleft in his chin like Gaston (except for Bruce Campbell). Jay's our hero. Our good friend Sam Leno/Chinstar is a relative of his. Jay is the best, we love him. Everyone in my family loves him. If it wasn't for him our friend Chinstar wouldn't be the superhero he is today. Why, it was because of Jay that Chinstar got his powers. It happened in mid summer 2001, he was still known back then as reporter Sam Leno of our magazine The Weekly Scoop, he made an appearance on The Tonight Show one night, and he accidentally said something to offend Jay, Jay got mad and rammed him in the shoulder with his chin. Two days after that, Sam developed superpowers including some chin based ones and became the lantern jawed hero Chinstar. True story.

Jay may be leaving the show, but our cuddly wuddly pal Little Jay will be staying with us for a really long time. We're thinking of doing a second Little Jay toy sometime. This one will be the Wereleno version that roars and has light up eyes.

Chintastic Chinstar

• His secret identity is Sam Leno.





• He is related to Jay Leno.





• His special power is that he is a Wereleno (see his picture above). Interestingly enough he is one of the few "heroic" members of this species. Most members of the Wereleno species tend to be evil. Although there have been some cases of werelenos being on both sides (Neutral).

• His favourite Disney character is Buzz Lightyear from Toy Story.





• He got his superpowers after being rammed by Jay Leno's chin on the tonight show.

• He can turn into his wereleno form anytime he wants. But he does change into this form mainly at night around 11:30 pm.





• He is the local hero of the town we live in. Everyone talks about how great he is.





• In our various animation, tv and film projects he always plays the lantern jawed superhero character.




• He's the only member of the cast besides me to play Gaston in a company production of Beauty And The Beast.

• His favourite food is Doritos.

• His song speciality is superhero themed parodies.

• He has a knack for inventing.

• There is numerous Chinstar related merchandise we have including action figures, t shirts, costumes, working replicas of his inventions (i.e weapons/gadgets) and a graphic novel series. There is also a video game called Chinstar: Hero Rising.

• He has an evil twin named Dark Chinstar- he comes from the Nightmare Realm. Dark Chinstar is like most werelenos-evil and very crafty and mischevious.

The Fly

One of our favourite directors is David Cronenberg. We especially love Videodrome, Scanners, Existenz, Dead Zone, Crash, and The Fly. The Fly is our absolute favourite of those films. If you were born in 1950 you might recall the original version with the infamous scene where the scientist ends up with his head on a fly's body and is about to eaten by a spider and cries out "Help me!" in a tiny voice. But if you're an 80's fanatic like me then you might be more familiar with David Cronenberg's remake. It's like the original one except it's different, Jeff Goldblum doesn't end up with his head on a fly's body oh no- it's much worse he ends up turning into a really grotesque hybrid of human and fly. One crucial element that David Cronenberg never forgets to add in his movies is horrific transformations involving the body changing in really horrible ways (this type of transformation is known as either a Painful Transformation or Transformation Trauma, and is full of Body Horror).

It may have given quite a lot of viewers nightmares and Squicked them out, but it kind of inspired us. My brother owns a teleportation pod like the one Jeff has in the movie, and he actually lets me use it. Although my brother himself got the insane idea to recreate Jeff's experiment from the film and ended up turning into a clone of BrundleFly. It took four and a half weeks to figure out how to change him back into himself. The Fly has been satirised numerous times. On one episode of Beetleborgs, Flabber brings a sketch of a teleportation device to life with his magic and gives it a test run, a fly-like monster named Kombat Gnat (who has a lot of razor sharp teeth and the ability to shrink) gets into the machine, their dna gets merged together and Flabber ends up turning into it like Jeff Goldblum in the movie. However he gets turned back to normal in the end.

Some of our work feature a homage to The Fly. One of which is the episode of The Misadventures Of Doc M where I test out my brother's teleportation device and Chumsley the werejohncandy accidentally falls into the machine, our dna gets merged together and I end up slowly changing into Chumsley. It also happened to my brother one time, my brother was testing it out for the first time, just as soon as the machine starts the sequence he realises that his Buzz Lightyear action figure is in the machine with him and he ended up turning into a life sized Buzz Lightyear. It took a long time to figure out a way to change him back to normal in the end but luckily I found a way to do it. We turned most of him back to normal, except when he came out he still had the "wings" sticking out of his back (and he still does).

These are pictures of Flabber's transformation into Kombat Knat in the Beetleborgs episode Buggin Out.
