That makes sense. I mean, any missed references in Python certainly haven't kept me from enjoying those shows.

I do! On one of the DVD sets, there's some group interview done at a comedy festival, and one of the audience members asks them about that one. Turns out they didn't actually do it - I forget what the story was, exactly, but I guess they were short material for one of the episodes and somebody they knew had done this thing, so they put it in.
The full version - don't miss the credits at the end!

TORONTO (AP) — Canadian actor Tony Rosato has died at age 62.
He was a veteran of comedy shows including "Saturday Night Live" and Canada's homegrown "SCTV."
Rosato's former agent Larry Goldhar has confirmed that Rosato died Tuesday. Goldhar says an autopsy is being done.
The Italian-born actor joined Martin Short and Robin Duke as the only three performers to have been cast members of "Saturday Night Live" and "SCTV," which was spun out of Second City shortly after "SNL" launched in the mid-1970s.
In 2005, Rosato was charged with criminally harassing his wife. He spent two years in prison awaiting trial before he was diagnosed with Capgras syndrome, a condition that made him believe his wife and daughter had been replaced by impostors. He was committed to a mental institution.
