SCTV cast member Dave Thomas recalls:
"When Chevy Chase left the original SNL cast, Joe [Flaherty], John [Candy] and I auditioned for the open slot.
"Lorne came into town acting like a little prince. It was a painful audition. We did what was probably the worst improv of our lives. Bill Murray got the part.
"Afterward, Lorne told John Candy not to give up his day job. It was a joke, but John never forgot that.
"By SCTV’s second season, the sense of competition with SNL had disappeared because they’d become so big. We were only getting smaller—stations started dropping us. People were discouraged, but we kept filming. Things turned around once we made it to American networks.”

Planes, Trains and Automobiles is a hilarious, heartfelt Thanksgiving classic! Make sure you watch it this year how it was supposed to be watched, on a massive wood-sheathed Zenith television.
