Relive the glory days with the first five seasons of 'Saturday Night Live' - which you can't find on Netflix
"Saturday Night Live" celebrated its 40th anniversary on Sunday with a live show featuring many of former cast members and hosts.
But let's face it: a three-hour live show isn't long enough to cover all the classic skits.
If you're still craving the old-school SNL shows, we recommend picking up the original five seasons of SNL featuring the greats such as Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi and Bill Murray.
(And, sorry, they're not on Netflix.)
