Wayne's World: At the Movies
The setup
The premise
Here’s the bit.
On their Aurora public-access show, Wayne and Garth swap Halloween costume stories before turning to the films they have seen. They praise The Fugitive, write off The Piano as a chick flick and insist My Life did not make them cry. Wayne's impression of the Leprechaun sends Garth into a panic that takes a while to talk down, Wayne's lofty review of The Remains of the Day gets a one-word reply from Garth, and riffs on the Carlito's Way ads and Laura Dern in Jurassic Park lead into the show's opening.
The funny people

A little extra
Notes from the archive.
Dana Carvey, who had left the regular cast in 1993, returned as Garth for this cold open. The episode's host, Nicole Kidman, co-starred in My Life, one of the films the pair discuss.
