Every Saturday from now through the end of the year, we're featuring holiday flashbacks from NBC's Saturday Night Live in honor of this festive season and SNL's 40th anniversary. This week, we've got two fun clips from the early 1990s, which may have been the heyday of introspection and self-help. The first is "A Dysfunctional Family Christmas," a holiday record parody from 1990 (see others, HERE), starring Phil Hartman, Jan Hooks, Mike Myers and Dana Carvey:

Be sure to check back next Saturday for one final holiday-themed clip from the vaults of Saturday Night Live, and watch SNL each Saturday at 11:30 pm on NBC.
