I'm surprised the DVD sets haven't included any of these old promos, which usually run 10-20 seconds and vary from cute to clever.
Ringo Starr with Billy Crystal (1984):
Sid Caesar and Joe Piscopo (1983):
Elliot Gould (1980): This was for the season 6 premiere -- the first anyone saw of the cast that was supposed to replace the original cast. Note the absence of Eddie Murphy (who was a featured player). The promo is actually pretty good; too bad that 90% of the season's sketches weren't this good:
Buck Henry (1978); the original cast years seem to have only featured the host solo, without a castmember. The first part features a voiceover by Donald Rickles (no relation):
Dick Cavett (1976): an interesting idea... I wonder how many people were confused by this back then.
