List of Saturday Night Live commercial parodies

The following is a partial list of Saturday Night Live commercial parodies. On Saturday Night Live (SNL), a parody advertisement is commonly shown after the host's opening monologue. Many of the parodies were produced by James Signorelli. Fast food, beer, feminine hygiene products, toys, medications, financial institutions, and automobiles have been frequent targets.

The commercial parodies have even targeted the SNL producers. A self-parody commercial featured "The Best of the First 20 Minutes", a parody of Broadway Video's series of SNL compilation videos. It offered a compilation of bits from the Cameron Diaz/Smashing Pumpkins September 1998 episode before that episode had even finished.

In 1991, Kevin Nealon and Victoria Jackson hosted a clip show featuring many commercials entitled Saturday Night Live Goes Commercial. In early 1999, Will Ferrell hosted a follow-up special. In late 2005 and in March 2009, the special was updated, featuring commercials created since the airing of the original special.

• 16 and Pregnant Spinoffs – A November 2010 ad finds MTV cashing in with spinoffs inspired by 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom, such as My Super Sweet 16 and Pregnant, America's Best Pregnant Dance Crew, Wild n Out with a Special Guest: A Baby, an edition of Cribs that feature baby cribs, and I'm Snooki and Pregnant. At the end, the MTV logo comes on with MTV: Maternity Television. (In an odd case of satirical prophecy, Snooki announced to US Magazine in March 2012 that yes, she was pregnant and engaged.)
• 24-Hour Energy for Dating Actresses: A once-daily energy supplement for men who have to deal with their amateur actress girlfriends (whether it's tolerating their musical-obsessed friends, their attempts at speaking in a foreign accent, their emotional breakdowns when they get rejected, seeing them in off-Broadway shows with younger, sexier actors, or their mediocre acting in local commercials). A female version for women who have to deal with hack stand-up comic boyfriends who always need to perform whenever people are around is also available (24-Hour Energy for Dating Stand-Up Comics).

A

• Action Cats – a parody of action-figure toys featuring plastic armor and weapons for live cats.

• Adopt John Belushi for Christmas – Candice Bergen sells people on letting John Belushi stay at their place for the holidays.
• Al Sharpton's Casa De Sushi – Similar to Donald Trump's House of Wings or Derek Jeter's Taco Hole, Al Sharpton (as himself) opens a Japanese restaurant even though Sharpton himself hates the food and only admits to opening the restaurant so he can pay for his political campaign.

• Amazin Lazer  – A consumer grade laser gun for cleaning up yard waste or for use in potential criminal acts.
• The Amazing Alexander – A 1986 ad promotes a Broadway theatre performance by a popular stage hypnotist (portrayed in performance still shots by Jon Lovitz). Audience members in the ad give the show unanimous praise—the same platitude, in fact, delivered in a hypnotic trance ("Terrific. I loved it. Much better than CATS. I'm going to see it again and again.").
• Amazon Mother's Day – Three guys (played by Jason Sudeikis, Bill Hader, and Taran Killam) try to surprise the women in their lives on Mother's Day (played by Kristen Wiig, Vanessa Bayer, and Nasim Pedrad) with typical gifts (such as breakfast in bed, bath items, and a new washer), only to find them masturbating to the erotic best-seller Fifty Shades of Grey (Wiig's character uses a vibrating muscle massager—which the daughter mistakes for a microphone, Bayer's character uses a detachable showerhead and a yellow dishwashing glove, and Pedrad's character leans against a shaky washer with a picture of Joel McHale on top of it). The commercial then advertises the Kindle for moms who want to read 50 Shades of Grey without their husbands knowing.

• ...and More – Tina-Tina Chenuse (Jenny Slate) promotes her stores that stock personalized novelties. The skits have 3 elements: Tina-Tina introducing herself, "Hi-lo, I'm Tina-Tina Chenuse", the store names always end with "and More" (e.g. "Car Horns and More"), and Tina-Tina always exclaims "Oh my God" somewhere in the sketch.

• Big Red – a toy Viking figure that spins around, spraying red liquid from the horns of a stereotypical Viking helmet (absurdist parody of water sprinkler-type toys).

The payoff comes during the voiceover, when Piscopo says of Williams, "He ain't so bad. I don't know why my wife ran off with him." The two men drop gloves and fight as soon as the puck is dropped. The ad ends with Williams and Piscopo sitting on the ice and sharing a beer with gap-toothed smiles.
• Buffy the Vampire Slayer – a promo for The WB series announces that with Seinfeld leaving the air, Buffy Summers would be moving to New York and her show would become a Buffy/Seinfeld hybrid. ("A show about nothing... and vampires!")
• Bug-Off – Rather than simply killing a cockroach, this bug trap painfully tortures them and "gives them a lot to think about". The trap supposedly creates a signal that encourages the cockroach to enter, then adhesive glue holds the bug fast (much like a rat trap). Then, three tweezers stretch the legs in opposite directions til they snap off. Then a white-hot metal coil comes down and burns off the bug's reproductive glands of as well as making a sizable hole. Then the bug is beat senseless by its own dismembered legs. Finally, two pieces of cotton stuffed into the cockroach's orifices as food is dangled in front of it.

• The Chameleon XLE – a luxury car on the inside, a dilapidated wreck on the outside—the better to deter the high risk of theft that accompanies luxury cars.

• Clear-Rite – An "invisible" retainer that, it turns out, is just superglue applied directly to the teeth. The twist at the end of this commercial is that it's not actually a commercial.
• Clearasil – Appearing in SNL's Sprockets skit, which parodied German pop culture, a young woman uses Clearasil (or, in a strong German accent, "Clärasil") to get rid of her pimples and impress her new boyfriend. The English word "pimples", however, is confused in the sketch with "pimplen", a strong German slang word with the same meaning as the English "fuck" (in the sexual sense). As a result, the commercial tagline, "mach das pimplen kaput", means Clearasil will destroy your sex life.

• Coldcock Malt Liquor – Tim Meadows appears in this parody of Billy Dee Williams' ads for Colt 45; with each sip from a tall can of this beverage, an animated fist arises from the can's label to whack the drinker upside the jaw. Ellen Cleghorne ("I ain't afraid of no can of beer!") and Chris Rock also appear.
• Colon Blow – In a parody of high-fiber cereal ads (notably Total and its "how many bowls" campaign), an off-screen voice tells cereal eater Phil Hartman he will need 30,000 bowls of his usual cereal to equal the fiber content in a single bowl of Colon Blow. (Also promoted is Super Colon Blow, with fiber content equal to that of 2.5 million bowls of Hartman's regular cereal.) When the large numbers are quoted, a pyramid of the same number of bowls elevates Hartman into the ionosphere.
• Colonel Belmont's Old Fashioned Horse Glue – Will Ferrell stars as Langford T. Belmont, a man whose family has been in the horse glue business for generations. It is a parody of commercials that try to appeal to old-fashioned values and tradition.

• Creeley's Soup – a sketch in which Gilda Radner, playing a child eating her soup, is annoyed by the announcer, who tells her that he will give her various things in exchange for her soup. She says "no" until she finally becomes frustrated and tells him, "No! Leave me alone! I'm eating!" The announcer then proceeds to tell her to take the little pieces of corn and shove them up into her nose. She asks why, and the reply is, "Because the Soup Man says so". She complies. After pouring the bowl of soup all over her nose (because according to the announcer "there's nothing better for a stuffy nose than nice hot soup"), the slogan for "Creeley's Soup" appears on the screen as the announcer intones: "Creeley's Soup – The Child Handler".
• The Crests and Troughs of Vernon Hawley, Jr. – featuring John Larroquette, the ad promotes an album about a Country-Western singer's bouts with alcoholism.

• Puppy Uppers and Doggie Downers – Gilda Radner complains to Laraine Newman that her dog Sparky has no energy, so Newman recommends Puppy Uppers.

Do what we say, and nobody gets hurt."

Documentary-style, Manning is shown "mentoring" children; what ensues is Manning physically and verbally abusing the kids during a football game (hitting kids in the back of the head with a football and sending one of them to sit in a Port-A-Let for messing up a play), and afterwards teaching his charges how to break into an SUV, exploiting a little girl to get a date with an attractive woman, showing kids a tabloid magazine featuring Angelina Jolie, drinking beer in front of them, and admitting that he would kill anyone who snitches on him.
