"This is something...This is nothing...This is something..."
Hilarious.
It was so f'n sad when SNL paid tribute to him during the 25 year anniversary special back in 2000 or whatever. A couple of the cast members speaking before the Hartman clips were obviously about to cry.
He also helped pen "Pee-Wee's Big Adventure," which is so underrated I don't know where to begin.
My favorite SNL performer of all time. He could play the straight man, be the glue guy that made a mediocre skit much better than it should have been, & could absolutely kill with the good stuff. He always delivered.
Hutz: And so, ladies and gentleman of the jury I rest my case.
Judge: Hmmm. Mr. Hutz, do you know that you're not wearing any pants?
Hutz: DAAAA!! I move for a bad court thingy.
Judge: You mean a mistrial?
Hutz: Right!! That's why you're the judge and I'm the law-talking guy.
Judge: You mean the lawyer?
Hutz: Right.
Hutz is undoubtedly my favorite minor character on the Simpsons.
Hutz: I didn't win. Here's your pizza.
Marge: But we did win.
Hutz: That's okay. The box is empty.
Hutz: Mr. Simpson, I was just going through your garbage, and I couldn't help overhearing that you need a babysitter. Of course, being a highly-skilled attorney, my fee is $175 an hour.
Homer: We pay eight dollars for the night, and you can take two popsicles out of the freezer.
Hutz: Three.
Homer: Two.
Hutz: OK, two. And I get to keep this old bird cage.
Homer: Done!
Hutz: [proudly] Still got it.
Terrible loss. He was one of my favorite SNL players as well.
A lesser known bit, for your enjoyment:
Have you been in an accident? Have you witnessed an accident? Have you suffered psychological damage from hearing someone describe an accident he saw?

Hutz: Now, Apu, Mrs. Simpons claims she forgot she was carrying the bottle of delicious...bourbon. Brownest of the brown liquors...so tempting...what's that? You want me to drink you? But I'm in the middle of a trial....EXCUSE ME (leaves).
