It has been suggested quite some time ago that Never mind (Saturday Night Live) be merged into this article. Any comments?

  • Merge: It obviously should be merged to this article. It is enough (at least) to have an article devoted to a recurring bit that is part one sketch (Weekend Update) on a TV series. Having an article devoted to the two-word punchline of that bit is too much even by Wikipedia's standards. (Please don't tell me that there is an article on "Excuse me, Ms. Litella".) Merger would have the side-benefit of adding two badly needed sources to this unsourced, albeit accurate, article. —Finell (Talk) 03:35, 5 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deprodding

[edit]

A quick search of Google Books shows many books that discuss the character, including , Saturday Night: A Backstage History of Saturday Night Live, I'm Chevy Chase ... and You're Not, and The Miracle of Language, which called the character "Next to Archie Bunker, the most eminent modern mangler of the English vocabulary". Given multiple reliable sources found in a one minute search, non-notability is controversial. Hence, deprod. --Mark viking (talk) 19:32, 16 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It was quite well-known in the second half of the 1970s in the U.S. (almost as much as "Francisco Franco is still dead" or "Jane, you ignorant slut"). AnonMoos (talk) 22:34, 16 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I pretty much reference this character everytime I want to say "never mind" after any post ([1]). Time to add some IRS.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 23:52, 12 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for adding the new prose and sources. --Mark viking (talk) 01:18, 13 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Missing Appearance(s)?

[edit]

The table has 22 dates when there are 26 appearances mentioned in the Premise section. There are more than 26 malapropisms listed so it can't be that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uIWLm7GQDM - (Nothing) does not appear to be in the table. In the absence of definitive RS, I've tagged the list as incomplete ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 15:38, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
