Parody of Nissan GI Joe Barbie Commercial?
I'm looking for the parody of that Nissan commercial featuring a thinly disguised GI Joe and Barbie (and Ken)! The commercial came out around 1996-7.
The parody of this commercial was done by Saturday Night Live, I think. It might have been done by Mad TV. I only saw it once but I remember being hilarious. GI Joe was a wino and Barbie was a leather clad punk/biker type.
The problem is no one seems to remember the parody of this commercial. It might have been broadcast only once. Doing searches on the SNL website comes up empty.
The original commercial is on-line in several websites. I'm looking for the SNL parody of this commercial.
Does anyone know where I can find this? Does anyone remember what I'm talking about?

Thanks Neale. At least now I know it's from Mad TV. I'm really surprised the parody is so hard to find. The original commercial was very popular at the time and I remember other companies were playing off of it.

Excellent! ...Until someone complains that this thread was resurrected after being dormant for so long.
