Deep House Dish is a recurring Saturday Night Live sketch that showcases house music acts. It is hosted by DJ Dynasty Handbag (Kenan Thompson) and T'Shane (Andy Samberg). DJ Dynasty Handbag constantly berates T'Shane for not being funny or interesting. He's also known for his catchphrase "Ooo wee T'Shane!" (formerly "Ooo wee Tiara!"). In December 2006, T'Shane replaced host Tiara Zee (Rachel Dratch). DJ Dynasty Handbag constantly berated Tiara for being so boring, even though from outward appearances she seems to be brain-damaged from heavy drug use.
The sketches always feature cast members and the guest host as various musical acts that are designed to parody dance music performer (and in one instance, rap) stereotypes. An example was the portrayal of Shereals Davis (Maya Rudolph), a tone-deaf but sexy diva who sang her song "It's My Duty" and then lamented that her drug dealing hairstylist was arrested.

Famous quotes containing the words deep, house and/or dish:
“When you realize how hard it is to know the truth about yourself, you understand that even the most exhaustive and well-meaning autobiography, determined to tell the truth, represents, at best, a guess. There have been times in my life when I felt incredibly happy. Life was full. I seemed productive. Then I thought,”Am I really happy or am I merely masking a deep depression with frantic activity?” If I don’t know such basic things about myself, who does?”
—Phyllis Rose (b. 1942)
“Perchance the time will come when every house even will have not only its sleeping-rooms, and dining-room, and talking-room or parlor, but its thinking-room also, and the architects will put it into their plans. Let it be furnished and ornamented with whatever conduces to serious and creative thought. I should not object to the holy water, or any other simple symbol, if it were consecrated by the imagination of the worshipers.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“My prime of youth is but a frost of cares,
My feast of joy is but a dish of pain,
My crop of corn is but a field of tares,
And all my good is but vain hope of gain:
The day is past, and yet I saw no sun,
And now I live, and now my life is done.”
—Chidiock Tichborne (1558–1586)
