It was Chevy as Ford--the cold opening of the fourth episode in November
1975, Candace Bergen's first guest host.  The first topical cold opening of
the series (the previous were Michael O'Donaghue's Wolverines sketch, Paul
Simon singing "Still Crazy After All These Years" (with Chevy Chase's first
fall before saying "live from New York..."--the week before he was a stage
manager saying that at the end of the sketch--and Chase in a wheelchair
falling out of it).
