In the cold opening, Dennis Miller tells Lorne Michaels that he never opened the show with "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!". This contradicts the cold opening of the season 11 episode hosted by Harry Dean Stanton where Dennis Miller did open the show by shouting "Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!" (though this can be excused as season 11 was seen by fans and critics as one of SNL's worst seasons and most fans purposefully forget that the season existed).
