Will Ferrell
and Alec Baldwin
play on SNL
the ``Inside the Actor's Studio"
skit, a parody on James Lipton.
Here is the transcript.
The word ``Scrumtrilescent" (also spelled scrumtrulescent) became established vocabulary (at least according to
the Urban Dictionary
or with the other spelling or
wiktionary).
The selection from the skit is part ofSeason 26: Episode 16, which aired on July 4th, 2001. [P.S. What does it have to do with math? It obviously deals
with order structures and Zorn's lemma which tells that
Every poset with upper bounds on every totally ordered subset
has a maximal element. ``Scrumtrilescent" is such a maximum in the class of evaluations of acting. It does not need
to be unique, illustrated by the alternative maximum ``Scrumtrulescent". ]
