Where can I find the Bob Roberts clip from SNL?

You can watch the whole episode on Hulu Plus. It’s the the seventh episode of the twelfth season of Saturday Night Live. Yeah, I looked that last bit up. :-) It’s not on regular Hulu, only on Hulu Plus which is pay service but you can sign up for a free trial for a week which will give you access to the show.

And if it’s on Hulu Plus, chances are it’s on Netflix instant streaming, as I have all 36 seasons in my queue.

@dalepetrie You’re right, the episode is also available streaming on Netflix who provides a free trial too, if @buckyboy28 doesn’t have Netflix service. But I may have jumped the gun here. I thought either way, the buckyboy is covered, but both Hulu Plus and Netflix seem to have the same product. The problem is that, I don’t exactly know what they have both contracted the rights to but many of what they are both calling “full episodes” are not that at all, now that I have kind of looked around. Both Netflix and Hula Plus are showing that episode, Season 12, episode 7 at 36 minutes. Not even close to being a complete episode. It’s 90 minute show. Even minus commercials, 36 minutes is not a complete episode.

This is the disclaimer that Hula posts:

“Full episodes of SNL consist of material that is cleared for online streaming. Some sketches and musical performances may be omitted due to various restrictions.”

I didn’t see if Netflix had something similar, they very well may.

So, @buckyboy28, I seem to have let you down. Who knows if that 36 minutes contains the Bob Roberts clip? Sorry buddy. I will look around a little more.

@lillycoyote – yeah, I discovered that the SNL does not include every sketch. They don’t show the musical guests, and depending on the episode, it could be as much as 1:05 or as little as 23 minutes (see the 6th season…the one that almost destroyed the show).

@lillycoyote No problem, I’ll keep searching. There has to be someone along the way who has all of the seasons of SNL backed up to vhs tapes.
