I’d argue that Chris Farley’s drug abuse ended with his death and not as the narrator said “Chris Farleys struggles with substance abuse didn’t end until far after his death…”
Sandler refusing to bad mouth Lorne Michaels is class. One thing about Sandler is that he seems like a nice guy. I was watching this clip from actors on actors or something and Brad Pitt was interviewing him and he told this story about when Sandler was at NYU and his acting professor or something took him out for a beer and told him he shouldn't act because he was horrible at it. Years later Sandler's in a bar with friends and sees his professor and he goes and introduces his friends to his old professor and says, "This is the only professor to ever buy me a beer." Many people would have taken the chance to slam Michaels and he didn't. That's class.
@@amandabeaty1492 I absolutely agree. I love the way Adam is a class act and he always brings his friends into his movies to help everyone out and because he loves them. That’s the type of guy everyone in show business should aspire to be because God knows there’s not a lot of that
Norm Macdonald was in a league of his own. Hilariously funny and totally beloved by his peers no matter what he did. So thankful I got to see him perform live. And his Twitter tribute to the passing of Robin Williams is absolutely gut-wrenching.
I didn't even know Damon Wayons was on SNL. I watched SNL in '86. I was 11-12 at the time. Maybe I saw him but didn't realize I had because I was so young then. It was In Living Color when I was in high school where I knew him from. 🤷♂️ Great mini-doc, like all your vids. You're a true fan of comedy, and your level of research is stellar. 👍
God Bless Norm. I was in high school when he hosted Weekend Update and most of my friends thought he wasnt funny but the one friend who loved him too...we are still bros. Norm was a great litmus test for comedy. Us who loved him, think hes tops
It’s funny how that journalist tried to sink Shane Gillis and ended up making everybody know about him and finding out he’s way funnier than the show. He literally ended up boosting his career.
6:00 Chris Farley did return to host SNL in 1997 about three months before he died. But it wasn’t triumphant, he was sweaty, totally disorganized, and not mentally with it. They had Chris Rock waiting backstage to step in as host in case Farley no showed or died before the show.
@@RETROACTIVETV yoooo thanks for the comment brother! I thought I was gonna end up covering only a couple people then I realized SNL has fired a bunch of people 🤣😂🤣😂
Rob Riggle is the one I find the most interesting, because his rise ( at least to me ) seems the most relateable being an outsider. I don't know how much longer SNL has, but the show as it stands is a great mirror of the American headspace during each of it's many eras.
One hour on some of my favourites! This might get me out of the closet... Laurie Metcalf as Horace's ex in episode 3 of Horace and Pete is epic. -Love you Norm!

One person you should have done is segment on was Anthony Michael Hall, who, along with Robert Downey Jr and Damon Wayans were on the same 1985 / 86 season of the show. Both he and Downey were coming off of Weird Science and, both seem ill-fitted for a sketch comedy show like snl. By the way, Anthony Michael Hall was the youngest cast member to appear on the show. He was 17 at the time. By the way he was only in half of it because of a movie he was filming called out of bounds which was released after that disaster season.
Julia is very funny and great presence on TV. However, her journey up to the top at Seinfeld is rarely talked about. She is a literal billionaire heiress that had no need to ever work. Which I envy, I wish I had that opportunity to do whatever art project I wanted with a significant safety net. I don't fault her for that. And to her credit, she has never pretended to be otherwise, though, she has actively tried to make sure her family financies were not published. I think she's great, love her, though she is one of those people who is completely oblivious to the struggles of the people around her. She has made comments that I think are detrimental to working people's struggles which are disheartening. (it, "You just have to go for it." and "If it's your passion, just dedicate all your time to it.") Those are things that sound nice, and may be true to some degree, but when you have responsibilities and people depending on you, it's horrible advice. Go for your dreams, but make very thought out decisions so others that depend on you don't suffer because the likelihood is you will not make it. For every "success story" there are a hundred stories of failure.
Nobody does nothing; however it is a privilege to be able to do the work you want to do simply because you enjoy it, and have the resources to be good at it. Yeah envy is the correct word, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Envy is a completely understandable feeling in an unequal world, especially when you realize that there are possibly millions out there that could have been mega-talents at a number of things that didn't have the opportunity.
@@nzr4674 that's true she could have been. However I work with a lot of actors and the struggle is complicated. You take jobs that hurt your credibility to get experience, and pay rent. You basically take ever job you can get. Julia basically came in near the top because she had the luxury of choice. What I'm saying is, yeah she may have made it if she didn't give up, but it would have taken her a longer time to get that
Wow Norm stuck up for Jim Downey and he took it to his grave. What an amazing guy he was is totally 💯 RIGHT ON! Loved him so much!! Rest In Peace Norm. You are certainly still missed by all of Us!❤
@@TheComedyHistorian I definitely did, I love how much time you dedicated to Norm. That is the first time I’ve heard about him standing his ground about the firing
the gain on your pre--amp is a little too hot, giving it a peak-y flavor. Pull it back around 3-5 dB, and push the gain of your recordings in post to get a cleaner sound =D
@@DruoxTheShredder dude thank you, I’ve been trying match Patrick CC’s audio becuase his sounds amazing. I tried using the narrator setting on GarageBand and it really added some heat to the audio. I will fix it for the next video, thanks for the suggestion ❤️
I would add Jim Breuer. He wasn't fired, but he's stated that he hated being screwed over by writers that kept stealing his ideas and it took a serious toll on his mental health.
Norm McDonald is a perfect example of INTEGRITY! A character trait that unfortunately doesn’t seem to be celebrated or appreciated anymore. Those who show any amount of such traits are now viewed negatively and are often prosecuted in public courts ending in cancellation.
I think the Shane Gillis firing was just insane. But the thing that pissed me off most was that Bowin Yang acted so contrite and like he thought Shane was the lowest of the low. But then a couple years later Shane was a guest host. And Bowin’s lips seemed to be super glued to Shane’s ass. I don’t know if Bowin was trying to save himself. From getting his ass kicked. But it seemed like Bowin was the main reason Shane was fired not even 2 days after he was announced as a new cast member.
Have to give you credit for using pictures that look like the type the artist would even like of themselves in the thumbnail. Instead of the usual "surprise" faces.
@@TheComedyHistorian Mine too. I had wondered if that's what you did. That's a guaranteed way to respectfully represent someone, a picture they chose themselves. Great video, btw!!
You forgot Jim Breuer and I'll tell you why he should have been included because he had such a tough time on the show that despite having some successful sketches, some of his ideas did not make it through. Therefore it was a mutual decision for him to leave. He has said he didn't have fun on there and didn't want to stay. They were about to add new people including Jimmy Fallon and Amy Poehler so it was the right time for him to go. He only lasted three seasons. Also missing was Chris Elliott who was part of the ill fated 94-95 season. Both him and others including Jay Mohr and Janine Garofalo left SNL after brief stints on the program. The worst one that season was Morwina Banks who didn't appear in many sketches and only was hired halfway through the season following Mike Myers decision to leave. Gilbert Gottfried was also another one that didn't make the cut in your video. He lasted the 1980 season and was fired. Similarly Charles Rocket was fired that year. And lastly for your consideration was Nancy Walls who ended up marrying Steve Carell. She was the it girl in the 1994-95 season but did not return the following season. Making people wonder where the pretty girl went. But she ended up on The Daily Show with Steve Carell where they both ended up dating and later go married.
@@dennismcgonigal9691 seriously? I didn’t think anyone would be fired for something so small. Especially a late night sketch show. Maybe I’ll cover people who’ve had mishaps on SNL
That Seth Simons guy sounds like a real piece of work. I think Lauren Micheals seen something in Shane Gillis that reminded him of early SNL when they were the Not Ready For Prime Time Players. Rather ironic considering.
Great video. I liked how you mentioned that Beverly Hills ninja was a classic Chris Farley movie. I loved that movie but I see a lot of hate for it now.
"Chris Farley's drug use would not conclude till after his death" Yea, I would think that not breathing and heart not beating for a long period of time kept him from scoring drugs.
I think it's so crazy that you don't bring up how Chris farnell became a voice on Rick and Morty and on Archer. Things like that make me question these videos
SNL hasnt been funny... since the 90s... some funny moments in the early early 00s. But imho, this show is a SHELL of its former glory. Just forced humor, that doesnt come off funny. THey are getting forced laughs. Im shocked this show is A) still on and B) because they are still on, have not done a total rebuild from the writers to the comedians. This show desperatly needs a make over and a change in direction. Its a piss poor excuse for a show these days. Sad. Because go back to its start, the show was so ahead of times. Its no longer that same show. Remember SNL only exists because of SCtv and Nation Lampoon. Without those 2, this show wouldnt of ever become a hit. Facts people.
@@ctcards2636 I agree, I haven’t watched SNL in a long time. I only tune in now on RUclips when a comedian I like does the monologue. Shane was the last person I watched

I’d argue that Chris Farley’s drug abuse ended with his death and not as the narrator said “Chris Farleys struggles with substance abuse didn’t end until far after his death…”
I have checked the math and 🤔I gotta say, I think you may be right.
As norm would say, he didn’t lose his battle with drugs, it was a draw
He didn’t say “far,” he just said “after.” He’s not wrong.
That's what we get with an AI generated narrator voice. Getting tougher to tell....
Yeah, can't keep using after your dead.

You’re welcome man, thanks for watching (i’m gayer)
@@TheComedyHistorian ....Time to give up that doghouse .

"Chris Farley's drug use would not conclude till after his death" Yea, I would think that not breathing and heart not beating for a long period of time kept him from scoring drugs.
Yeah, It's almost like that's why I said it.
What’s the name of this bgm? 17:09
Iron man, black sabbath
@@catamorandanger Thanks man anyways I’ve got it using Shazam
"18:18...Vallej Girl mit E.G. Dailj."
You should add Chris redd here who was only let go for dating another cast members ex
@@imadawg2833 thats really interesting, maybe I’ll make another video covering him
Your mic sounds like its clipping.
I think it's so crazy that you don't bring up how Chris farnell became a voice on Rick and Morty and on Archer. Things like that make me question these videos
Also the fact that he pronounced his 30 Rock character as Spaceman not Spach-em-an. 😑
I think they'll be ok. Hopefully they stay famous and get more rich. Thbbbbbt
Rest In Party
You missed Randy Quaid. He was a victim 💯
@@soulvigilante true, I’ll cover him at some point
She was great on parks n rec
I would say the real victims of SNL are the people that watched from 2014-2022
😂🤣😂🤣
Was 2023 good or something?
@@DeckofLies 😂😂😂
Some of SNLs best years for sure.
NORM
@@eriklucasmusic the GOAT
My favorite person on this list is definitely Casey Wilson... or so the Germans would have us believe
@@MormNacdonald Such a shame Carrot Top was never fired from SNL.
Norm & OJ had planned to "One Day" play 18 holes. Never happened though.
This came out around the same time the real reason Norm left
No mention of Riggle on The Daily Show? I don’t know. I think it’s something I would mention on a channel called comedy historian.

What a waste of great talent
@@thomasarnoldcoe6527 same, super funny guy
Truth be told, I did then (when I was 9) and still do have a crush on Julia.
@@cg167 same here bro. She’s such a dime
SNL hasnt been funny... since the 90s... some funny moments in the early early 00s. But imho, this show is a SHELL of its former glory. Just forced humor, that doesnt come off funny. THey are getting forced laughs. Im shocked this show is A) still on and B) because they are still on, have not done a total rebuild from the writers to the comedians. This show desperatly needs a make over and a change in direction. Its a piss poor excuse for a show these days. Sad. Because go back to its start, the show was so ahead of times. Its no longer that same show. Remember SNL only exists because of SCtv and Nation Lampoon. Without those 2, this show wouldnt of ever become a hit. Facts people.
@@ctcards2636 I agree, I haven’t watched SNL in a long time. I only tune in now on RUclips when a comedian I like does the monologue. Shane was the last person I watched
Dude pump the brakes Chris rock is not even close to being the greatest comedian of all time..
@@DFWTB9506 Dave Chappelle said he was the greatest living comedian. I don’t think he is personally, but plenty of people do. I was just saying he’s highly acclaimed
Yeah, he wouldn't make the top 100.
@@michaellear6904chill, not the GOAT. But not in the top 100, I would love to see your list.
Did you guys actually listen to what ye said in the video? Watch it again.
He is 100% correct.
@@2Less0is0More2i bet hannah gadsby would be on it.
You really need to show photos from the era When talking about the era. Not modern photos.
Bro has VP Harris writing for him “National exposure across the country” lol
@@jatom6996 lol VP Harris
Don't put Gillis in one picture with all these legends ffs.
@@martinungvarsky4750 don’t tell me what to do
Victim is a strong term
DERRELL HAMOND??? One of the Best SNL impersonators & longtime SNL member? He never gets the thumbs up that he deserves. Sean Connery w/Turd Ferguson? Best Trump, all around best of...
I was never a fan. Probably because they fired their best.
@@nicolaskrinis7614 for me they had nuggets of amazing content but I agree that Lorne pulled the plug on some of their best talent
Yo I didn't know she was in troll
