This final episode of SCTV: Network 90 features such classic sketches as "Whatever Happened to Baby Ed," with Ed Grimley (Martin Short) suffering torment at the hands of his brother Skip (John Candy); and the 3-D Firing Line production of "Midnight Cowboy II," hosted by Count Floyd (Joe Flaherty), starring Woody Tobias Jr. (Eugene Levy) as Ratzo Rizzo and Dr. Tongue (Candy) as Joe Buck -- and mercilessly skewered by critic Pauline Kael (Mary Charlotte Wilcox). Also, musical guest Joe Walsh and his band perform "I Can Play That Rock 'N' Roll All Night" on "The Fishin' Magician." Billy Sol (Candy) and Big Jim (Flaherty) goad Neil Sedaka (Levy) into blowin' up real good. "Mel's Rock Pile" offers a tribute to punk, featuring The Queenhaters' big hit "I Hate the Bloody Queen." And, at long last, it's the 12th and last episode of "Days of the Week" -- with a truly surprising cameo appearance. (A "real" one, not an imitation this time!) ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
