On this surprise free edition of Wasn’t That Special, we interview six-year cast member Victoria Jackson, who has plenty to say about the behind-the-scenes drama during her time on the show. Jackson talks about why, even 35 years later, Alec Baldwin can’t stop talking about her breasts. She offers an opinion on the famous Chris Farley Chippendale’s sketch, and she discusses her rivalries with fellow cast mates Jan Hooks and Nora Dunn. She explains her unique voice and tells the story of how she ended up on her back with her legs in the air in the infamous Il Cantore Italian restaurant sketch.And in a new twist, we actually recorded video for this one!
