Saturday Night Live

Oh, she'll be in the main cast this fall for sure.

not bummed on tk leaving that dude always gave me american psycho vibes

I seem to remember from his WTF interview that he didn't really have much of a comedy background before joining the cast.

joined cast of MADtv at age 19 and was a member of the main company of the LA Groundlings

pssh, who wasn't

I think Beck Bennett should be able to do anything that Killam does. And cheaper!

except a character with any voice between "beck bennett" and "slightly deeper beck bennett"

idk why i am harshing on this guy's voice today i guess i just miss hader/sudeikis/forte too much. but come on, even kenan makes up dumb nonsense accents!

You're right, but Bennett's voice is the best!

don't care about Killam but Pharoah is a loss, always good to have a really talented mimic in the cast

yah he's a gem and could do anyone except i hate that i live in a world where ATTENTIONTEACHERSANDSTUDENTS is a reoccurring sketch

Armisen's just down the hall!

ten weeks a year

also ugh, please no armisen obama ever again

are you ready for pete davidson obama though

lol yes

I'm ready for sasheer zamata obama

Lorne should take a shot at Trump.

they should just have Trump on all the time playing himself, they all enjoyed promoting him so much

Still don't understand why Lorne felt the need to Riefenstahl his institution like that.

yeah it was super gross

I was trying to remember if there was a reason why I never started watching this past season and, oh yeah, there was that thing they did that turned me all the way off.

Killam's Schwarzenegger movie is probably why he was let go:

“I don’t know fully. I don’t know the other side of it. You sign for seven years, so I had one more year. I had sort of had it in my head I would make this upcoming year my last year, but then heard they weren’t going to pick up my contract. I was never given a reason why, really,” he said.

“But I do know I’m directing this movie [‘Why We’re Killing Gunther’ starring Arnold Schwarzenegger] and I’ll have two months of post-production that would have bled into the ‘SNL’ production schedule, so we kind of communicated that,” added Killam.

is pete davison actually ever funny or do they just need a guy who can play a "teenager" in skits or a stoner?

i remember ppl losing their minds for his first weekend update monologue, which apparently bought him infinite goodwill. idk he's fine i guess

I was hoping for one more Jebidiah Atkinson bit. Guess I'll have to wait for the inevitable Lorne-produced Jebidiah Atkinson film.

don't worry he'll come back to visit 500 times to do that character and only that character

I don't find Davidson funny at all. My millennial son thinks he's great. Different strokes.

I will miss Taran Killam, esp the Les Jeunes de Paris dance sketches.

All My Millennial Sons

I liked Pete Davidsons weekend updtate skits, but can't remember a single funny thing he's done in a sketch. Except getting his head cut off.

the 'kid who fucked a teacher' courtroom sketches (plural. PLURAL.) are pretty funny

I watched one of his Weekend Update skits and it just seemed like a bad stand-up bit

yeah, I feel like Weekend Update has been leaning a bit too heavily on that lately: Davidson, Leslie Jones, Brooks Wheelan

Would prefer more Bruce Chandling

what i want is for them to take the characters they make for weekend update, and instead of endlessly forcing them to sit in that chair when they hit and do the same thing but with more current references, maybe explore their lives in a sketch or two? i wanna see drunk uncle at christmas! i wanna see wally dealing with his terrible life!

or was it willy? given my name i should probably remember this

i mean it may have been a bit much to create one of stefon's nightclubs but can you imagine

Brooks Wheelan?

I just want Will Forte to come back and do more Tim Calhoun skits for the election.

oh guess he's appeared on the tonight show!

god bless will forte.

wonder why they all of a sudden needed to cut to bored jimmy after every joke, is this to cover the "reaction videos" contingent

If I don't see Jimmy laugh how do I know it's funny

it's like porn

Miranda will take on hosting duties on October 8, joined by first-time musical guests Twenty One Pilots.

will go from passively to actively ignoring for this ep

you show em

nobody who isnt in Lorne's tax bracket has even seen this guy perform

have never heard of any of these people

it's the Hamilton guy, keep up with the musical crowd Shakes

few things make me want to commit suicide more than having to sit through a modern American musical

I can't believe you don't care about culture.

what can I say, I had to sit through the Lion King once

but this one's Broadway hiphop!
