Description

Gilbert and Frank sit down for a memorable (and rare) interview with comedian, actor, writer and original "Saturday Night Live" cast member Chevy Chase, who reminisces about co-stars Dan Aykroyd, Randy Quaid and Rodney Dangerfield and reveals why he turned down iconic roles in "Animal House," "Ghostbusters," "American Beauty" and "Forrest Gump." Also, Chevy reprimands Desi Arnaz, roughs it up with Bill Murray, rides a roller coaster with Eddie Bracken and runs afoul of Cary Grant. PLUS: Sid Caesar's strange superstition! The Land Shark strikes again! "Planet of the Cheap Special Effects"! Gilbert covers Barry Manilow! And the mystery of the Munchkin suicide!
