There was a poll on twitter recently asking which you prefer. I'm so incredibly torn.
I’ll take Candy’s oeuvre over Farley’s all day. Some great movies in there. SNL doesn’t really move the needle for me. I still quite like Farley though.
I enjoyed it, but I never watched it at the time and only came to it later so I don’t think it had the same impact on me as you. It wasn’t until I met my wife that I started watching as she’s a pretty big SNL devotee.Dismissing Farley's SNL work is crazy talk.
Without a really deep look, I would say the iconic movies are close and Farley's SNL body of work are light years better than Candy on SCTV.
Candy had more range. Farley's schtick was limited to fat idiot and also he was a Candy rip-off to some extent.
Farley's SNL work and Tommy Boy are what some might call iconic.
