Does the original cast of SNL still hold up?

Any time a recent SNL sketch (or article) is posted on social media, it seems that half the comments are "I remember when SNL was funny and not political." Well, not only has the show always been political, but it's been funny -- if wildly erratic -- since 1975. Most of these comments come from people referring to the original cast "with Bill Murray and Eddie Murphy" (although neither of them joined the show until well after the "original cast").

So what would happen if you took a young person and showed them such golden oldies as the "AM/FM" sketch or Chevy Chase as President Ford? They'd be baffled. I find those funny because I understand the references, but a lot of people do not.

SO a few years ago, I made a compilation of sketches which I thought DID hold up even today. This is what you could show a young person who doesn't understand why "cheeseburger cheeseburger cheeseburger" had such appeal 40+ years ago. I've added links where I could find them, and will add more as they turn up. (Those with an asterisk are not from the official SNL YouTube channel).
