Memorable comedy bits from award shows?
I love the little comedy clips that are played during awards shows. My favorite one is from the ESPY's where Sam Jackson reprises his role as Jules Winnfield as a youth hockey coach.
"Where I come from, we call this the Inglewood jack!"
What are some memorable ones for you?

Billy Crystal did some pretty good opening bits for the Oscars.

My favorite was from mtv movie awards and all the best movie nominees were redone with different version of Shatner characters the one for Seven was brilliant.

Again, from the MTV Movie Awards:
- Sam Jackson walks in on the Dawson's Creek kids and "I don't wanna wait" is playing on the stereo.
Sam: "I HATE THAT F'ING SONG!"
- Ben Stiller and (I think it was Vince Vaughn, but I may be mistaken) pitch an idea for "Titanic 2" to James Cameron.

You didn't ask for the best, you asked for memorable and I think that's all people really remember from Letterman hosting.

The Ben Stiller/Vince Vaughn "Titani" bit still ranks as my all time fave

One that I remember from the 2000(?) MTV movie awards that I always wished I could see again (can't find it on YouTube), was some acceptance speech Ben Stiller was making and Will Ferrell comes out uninvited as his speech coach screaming to shut the whole production down because Stiller isn't accepting correctly.
I can't remember specifics, but Ferrell winds up peeing his pants on stage and by the end of it Stiller pushes him onto the ground and runs off the stage with Ferrell giving chase. If anyone can find that, I would love to see it again.

My all time favorite awards show moment was years and years ago. It was either The Grammy Awards or The Emmy Awards, but Steve Martin was announced as the winner. He came from backstage wearing a bathrobe, a shower cap and holding a toothbrush and said, "I really wasn't expecting this..."
