SNL's Continued Downward Spiral Thread

I'm gonna miss Eric Trump most of all (said no one ever).

Seeing Marcello Hernandez, it reminds me just how few Latinx cast members they've seemed to have over the years.

Forgive me if I'm drawing a blank, but all I can think of are Fred Armisen, Horatio Sanz and Melissa Villasenor.

 

I’m late to this, but everyone other than Buckley and Cohen himself tries way too hard with Hallelujah.

 

I saw Molly Kearney in Season 1 of A League of Their Own. If anyone saw it, they were the sidekick of the tall first baseman who got traded late in the season. They were OK, but nothing memorable. They will be the show's first non-binary cast member.

I didn't even notice Aristotle Athari left; he will go down as one of the least-remembered players in SNL history.

 

Not totally correct. Molly Kearney was an extra member of the Peaches, but Melanie Field played Jo, the player who got traded (essentially the modern version of the Rosie O'Donnell character).

 

Huh. I thought that was them. Thanks.

(I used the right pronoun four times now. I'm counting a win.)

 

At least Aristotle had that great robot character on Update. If you want forgettable, I think Brooks Whelan meets that category.

 

Tim Robinson anyone?

That's Emmy-award winning Tim Robinson.

and that singing guy who ended everything with toooooonight thank you

 

And probably the one person who did the most in the future with the least contributions to SNL:

4 Emmys, 2 Tonys, 3 Globe noms and an Oscar nom

 

Tim Robinson was so cringe-worthy during his time on SNL, I've gravitated away from anything he's done since.

Laurie Metcalf is definitely among the least-used SNL players over the years, but Wikipedia does a pretty good job listing the contenders. Never had any clue about Catherine O'Hara, but Shane Gillis went to high school near here.
