Review

Variety, 08/02/1993, "...Sweet, funny, anarchic pastiche....The supporting cast is nicely laced with dozens of present and past SNL regulars..."

Title Note

The film gives the principal cast members of "SNL," both old and new, a chance to work together for the very first time.

Product Notes

Hounded by the immigration authorities, the Coneheads continue to pursue the American dream, raising their teenaged daughter "Connie" in their suburban home and on weekends barbecuing mass quantities of animal protein in the back yard. Inspired by the early "Saturday Night Live" skit. The supporting cast includes a veritable "who's-who" of TV comedy, from comics-turned-sitcom stars Drew Carey and Ellen DeGeneres to "Seinfeld" stars Jason Alexander and Michael Richards and "SNL" cast members Jan Hooks, Julia Sweeney, and Tim Meadows.
