Can You Guess Famous Saturday Night Live Quotes From Just a GIF or Freeze-Frame?

New week, new Quote Quiz — in which we show you freeze-frames or GIFs from TV shows and movies, and you have to guess the famous quote being said at the time. Few shows lend themselves to a quote quiz as well as Saturday Night Live, with nearly 40 years of catchphrases to choose from. But do not get cocky: This SNL edition starts off easy, but then goes beyond the “Isn’t that special?” gimmes into the deep cuts. The rules are simple. The game works Hangman style: You type in letters to fill in the quote that goes with the picture, but if you get more than three letters wrong, you lose that question. (If you’re stuck, click for a hint on the upper-right-hand corner of each picture.) When you’re done, share your final score on Twitter and Facebook to see if you’d be worthy of your own “Weekend Update” segment. On your mark, get set, quote!

Type the correct answer, hangman style.
