Ah, so it wasn't faux Italian, it was faux Spanish, or at least Spanglish or at least fraux Spanglishese. I never mentioned the Franco connection because I figured that was what he was going for. The Garrett Morris bit I just didn't remember. I saw every episode of that first season, but seem to have forgotten most of it. In fact the only Garrett Morris sketch I remember was the one where he pushes his way into the FBI office (manned by Dan Ackroyd) and demands to see everything they have on him. Ackroyd spends several minutes convincing him they've never even heard of him and don't care, then after he leaves hits the intercom button and says "Get me everything you can find on a Garrett Morris!"
