  Chronicling the sadness, the  disappointment, and the stalking that comes after one man broke up with his girlfriend, "The Denise Show" was a call-in talk show starring Adam Sandler as Brian. Brian could not deal with breaking up with girlfriend Denise, portrayed by Shannen Doherty, and spent his time talking about her and talking to people who knew her. As if his heartbreak was not enough, his father, voiced by Phil Hartman, would also call and shout at him.

  One of several Saturday Night Live sketches to prompt a feature film, Leon Phelps was "The Ladies Man." Portrayed by Tim Meadows, "The Ladies Man" provided dating and sexual advice to callers in a 1970s setting.

  Helping viewers resist the temptations from Satan, "Church Chat" features none other than the Church Lady, played by Dana Carvey.
