We thought we were going to go up against SNL on Saturday Nights - that would have changed things so much that it's almost impossible to speculate what might have happened. ~ David Wain
Snl quotes by David Wain
Say what you will about the leadership of 'SNL,' they have crafted an institution as opposed to just running a show. I don't think that's by accident. ~ Phil LaMarr
Snl quotes by Phil LaMarr
Everything related to 'SNL,' that was very sudden - from the time I found out I was joining the cast to the time I could read on a blog that someone watching the show thinks I'm fat, that was about 30 days. That blog part, that could've moved a little more slowly. But hey - it's all material, right? ~ Casey Wilson
Snl quotes by Casey Wilson
It was weird that most people knew me as someone let go from 'SNL.' I had the best time there, and in retrospect, it was the perfect amount of time. The only thing that matters is what you do with yourself in that moment after. If you decide, 'I'm the girl who was fired from 'SNL,' you're just that. ~ Michaela Watkins
Snl quotes by Michaela Watkins
Well, basically, when you get SNL, everyone wants to take a meeting, just in case you end up being good. ~ Andy Samberg
Snl quotes by Andy Samberg
It's nice when I get offered small parts. But I really think that 'SNL' is what my skill set is best designed for. ~ Seth Meyers
Snl quotes by Seth Meyers
I can't relax. I'm not happy unless I'm working on stuff. 'SNL' is always a huge workload, as enjoyable as it is. ~ Fred Armisen
Snl quotes by Fred Armisen
I was at Second City L.A., going through the conservatory, and I graduated in 2004 and I got 'SNL' in 2005. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
To be totally honest? I don't know if I'll keep doing more impressions. People told me I had a facility for it, and I was like, 'Okay, I'm the impression guy.' So you imagine the cast at 'SNL' is an A-Team, and you've got the explosives guy, and I'm the impression guy. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
I used to stay up at night and sneak into the TV room, past my parents, who were asleep, to watch Saturday Night's 'Main Event.' That's how I started watching SNL. On accident. ~ Andy Samberg
Snl quotes by Andy Samberg
There's no job like 'SNL.' There's no other job you go to where you're like, 'Oh, this is like that live, late-night sketch variety-musical show that shoots in, whatever it is, 10,000 feet of sound stage.' There's nothing like it. ~ Taran Killam
Snl quotes by Taran Killam
Even before I got on 'SNL' I assumed I would do some type of sitcom; I kind of thought that was how I would start. I don't mean to sound arrogant - I just thought I would be best suited to the form. ~ Casey Wilson
Snl quotes by Casey Wilson
I am always so happy to be at 'SNL.' I still feel like a kid when I'm there, like I can't believe I'm watching them make the show. ~ Nick Offerman
Snl quotes by Nick Offerman
I had a lot of bad jobs but the one big internship I had is I interned for 'SNL' when I was 21 years old and that was the joke. You intern there and you think man, I'm going to be with the writers and the great comedians. Then you're getting everybody sandwiches and then the doors close and then all the great creatives are doing the work. ~ Jake Johnson
Snl quotes by Jake Johnson
'SNL' is really hard to do when you're single and living alone. And then it's pretty tough when you're married, because you don't see your spouse. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
I'm more of a comedian. I wouldn't mind being on SNL (Saturday Night Live). I think that would be cool. ~ Cheyenne Kimball
Snl quotes by Cheyenne Kimball
Around 5:30 P.M., Oprah and I wrapped and I went over to SNL, but not before stealing an untouched Edible Arrangements bouquet from Oprah's dressing room to serve at the birthday party the next day. ~ Tina Fey
Snl quotes by Tina Fey
Maybe it's because One Direction was just on 'SNL,' or because I'm playing The Wanted on my Top 40 show, but in terms of boy bands, we're seeing this resurgence, and it's happening, whether you like it or not! ~ Carson Daly
Snl quotes by Carson Daly
I don't miss anything ever. Because to me, missing something is like going backward a little bit. I don't miss being in a punk band. For me, 'SNL' is like ... this is gonna sound overly dramatic, but ... the way I am, it feels like I'm a soldier, so it was like, 'What do you want me to do? Put me anywhere. Do you want me to do these sketches? Great.' ~ Fred Armisen
Snl quotes by Fred Armisen
My dad would write these sketches for me while I was at 'SNL.' ~ Casey Wilson
Snl quotes by Casey Wilson
When I was at 'SNL,' I would constantly get in arguments, 'Why aren't we more political? We're not going after Bush.' Then look what happened - that Sarah Palin season, they were on fire. It was about something. ~ Adam McKay
Snl quotes by Adam McKay
When I first set out to ruin SNL, I didn't think anyone would notice, but i persevered because like you trying to a do a nine- piece jigsaw puzzle, it was a labor of love. ~ Tina Fey
Snl quotes by Tina Fey
I'm friends with a lot of actresses, but my 'SNL' friends are my closest. The experience of working there is something of a battleground, a great one, but complicated. I think there's a deep connection for having survived that workplace. ~ Ana Gasteyer
Snl quotes by Ana Gasteyer
I am a fan of 'SNL' and a big Jimmy Fallon fan, too. ~ Julian Casablancas
Snl quotes by Julian Casablancas
I'm a female in comedy, so of course I want there to be more women on 'SNL', and women of color. ~ Kathy Griffin
Snl quotes by Kathy Griffin
I love comedy, but I was just obsessed with 'SNL' growing up. ~ Abbi Jacobson
Snl quotes by Abbi Jacobson
I didn't audition for 'SNL.' I sent in a tape to 'SNL' the year before I started writing there, but I got the job there through doing stand-up on Fallon. ~ Hannibal Buress
Snl quotes by Hannibal Buress
I didn't realize how much people liked to bash SNL until I was on. I've always just liked it, and I've always watched it and been into it. ~ Andy Samberg
Snl quotes by Andy Samberg
My parents are both super funny, and I always knew I wanted to be on 'SNL.' My mom and I would watch it a lot. ~ Casey Wilson
Snl quotes by Casey Wilson
I'll never forget my very first [SNL] show. I had a card in my changing room from Kristen Wiig. It just had a heart on the inside, and she'd written "Have fun." That always stayed with me. ~ Nasim Pedrad
Snl quotes by Nasim Pedrad
Getting 'SNL' was pretty amazing, so just to be able to have an eight-year career there and be really happy with everything I did, it was pretty big. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
'SNL' after-parties are sort of like a time to celebrate your successes and drown your sorrows, depending on how the show went for you. ~ Seth Meyers
Snl quotes by Seth Meyers
In Australia, I wrote lots of little plays and put them on, and then I worked on a few different TV shows, like the Australian equivalent of 'SNL.' I would write and perform all of my characters. ~ Rebel Wilson
Snl quotes by Rebel Wilson
Sometimes 'Portlandia' can be pretty traditional. But the stuff I've always loved on 'SNL' has always been the weirdest stuff I've done. The stuff that went on at 10 to 1 in the morning. ~ Fred Armisen
Snl quotes by Fred Armisen
You can track elections by who was playing that president on 'SNL' at that time. There's the theory that the more likable or charismatic impression would help get the president elected. ~ Jordan Peele
Snl quotes by Jordan Peele
It's not like you do 'SNL' and then get handed movie roles. You work, you audition for stuff and try to get it. I think, a lot of people, it's the goal to be in movies or just to be working in general. But yeah, some of us get lucky and get some movie roles, and it's nice. ~ Bobby Moynihan
Snl quotes by Bobby Moynihan
I always live tweet 'SNL.' ~ Mike Birbiglia
Snl quotes by Mike Birbiglia
When I write on 'SNL,' I've found I'm most productive while collaborating and joking with friends and not being firmly attached to any one idea. ~ Cecily Strong
Snl quotes by Cecily Strong
I worked in Trenton, and then I got sidetracked into comedy and then onto 'SNL.' And then into being a live performer - what I do now; virtually that's what I am: I'm a live entertainer. ~ Joe Piscopo
Snl quotes by Joe Piscopo
I think 'SNL' is so well-known for its musical performances, as well, and people really breaking into America through a really great performance on there. So I think me and Gotye are both really excited to be amongst such company. You know, it's great. ~ Kimbra
Snl quotes by Kimbra
I had been on this improv team at this really great improv theater. It's called iO now. It used to be called Improv Olympic. They have showcases for Lorne Michaels and other writers and people who work at 'SNL' usually about once a year, although I don't know if it always happens. ~ Vanessa Bayer
Snl quotes by Vanessa Bayer
I grew up watching Letterman, 'Seinfeld,' 'SNL,' and Monty Python movies. But nothing made me want to get into comedy more than when 'Mr. Show' started airing. ~ Joe Mande
Snl quotes by Joe Mande
One of my oldest friends from Kansas, his sister was married to Ben [Folds] and wrote lyrics on his first couple of albums. I got to meet him the first time I saw them in concert at The Bottleneck, a great bar in Lawrence, Kansas. Then, he was the musical guest my first or second week as a writer on SNL. I was like, "I don't know if you remember me?" And he was like, "Oh my god, yeah!" He's a big photography fan, as am I. ~ Jason Sudeikis
Snl quotes by Jason Sudeikis
One of my recurring D-list moments is when people stop me in the airport and tell me they loved me on SNL. I never know if they think I'm Molly Shannon, Cheri Oteri, or Chris Kattan. I just say Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed me as Mango. ~ Kathy Griffin
Snl quotes by Kathy Griffin
I never wanted to be that person who leaves 'SNL' and nothing happens. ~ Rachel Dratch
Snl quotes by Rachel Dratch
I think the process of 'SNL' is still pretty formal. You make an audition tape, your agent sends it in, they watch people's tapes, and then they invite people to perform at a comedy club in Los Angeles or New York. But I don't know how much actual scouting they do online. ~ Noel Wells
Snl quotes by Noel Wells
'SNL' is this part of American culture with a certain timelessness to it. ~ Thomas Bangalter
Snl quotes by Thomas Bangalter
I knew that people were going to talk about it, I knew it was embarrassing, and I knew it was a big deal. But did I think that it was going to be this thing that followed me for, you know, the next years to come? I guarantee you, 25 years from now, I'll be known as the girl that lip synced on 'SNL.' But, you know, it was a weird thing. Not fun. ~ Ashlee Simpson
Snl quotes by Ashlee Simpson
SNL is a home. You've got all of your brothers and sisters there, and it's a great time. ~ Adam Sandler
Snl quotes by Adam Sandler
In the year and a half I was on SNL, I never saw anybody ad lib anything. For a very good reason - the director cut according to the script. So, if you ad libbed, you'd be off mike and off camera. ~ Harry Shearer
Snl quotes by Harry Shearer
If women could ejaculate, I would have exploded hot jizz all over my manager's face. Instead, I hugged him. (about getting the SNL gig as a writer) ~ Sarah Silverman
Snl quotes by Sarah Silverman
If I could work with Eddie Murphy on 'SNL,' I think I could quit comedy forever. For me and my generation, he's God. ~ Michael Che
Snl quotes by Michael Che
When you're doing comedy constantly, you're organized: you know where everything is, you know how to get out of it, you know how to stretch it. But, like, doing 'SNL,' I stopped doing spots, and then I would finally do some sets - it take me so long to, kind of, get in the rhythm of it. ~ Michael Che
Snl quotes by Michael Che
My advice, Be healthy, reach your own goals and don't be afraid to impersonate a SNL star. ~ Teri Hatcher
Snl quotes by Teri Hatcher
It's definitely like being in some weird sorority. I'm friends with a lot of actresses, but my 'SNL' friends are my closest. ~ Ana Gasteyer
Snl quotes by Ana Gasteyer
I think 'SNL' was such a unique thing because it was material you created and you're very comfortable with it, even though the setting was pressure-packed. ~ Will Ferrell
Snl quotes by Will Ferrell
When I left college, I was out of work for three years. I had this dream of being on 'SNL,' and that was all I could imagine. ~ Josh Gad
Snl quotes by Josh Gad
I watch 'The Bachelor'. It's one of those things where I always think if it didn't exist and it was on 'SNL,' we would think it would be a ridiculous, funny idea. But it actually exists ... It's a glorious train wreck that I love to watch. ~ Jamie-Lynn Sigler
Snl quotes by Jamie-Lynn Sigler
I still have my old Nintendo 64 that works. And I hook it up, and I still play the original 'Goldeneye.' I'm that geek. I have an 'NBA Jam' arcade machine in my office at 'SNL.' ~ Taran Killam
Snl quotes by Taran Killam
A coworker at SNL dropped an angry c-bomb on me and i had the weirdest reaction. To my surprise, I blurted, "No. You don't get to call me that. My parents love me. I'm not some Adult Child of an Alcoholic that's going to take that shit. ~ Tina Fey
Snl quotes by Tina Fey
The good thing about 'SNL' is that it's the same people every week that you're working with, and we've all become so close and tight because we've worked together so long and so closely together. ~ Kristen Wiig
Snl quotes by Kristen Wiig
Obviously Mad TV, SNL are one kind of show, whereas The State belongs to the kind of show that is entirely conceived written and performed by a set group that existed before the TV show. ~ David Wain
Snl quotes by David Wain
The hard part about SNL is, there's no real communication when you get there. It's not like people are mean to you, they just act like you're not there. ~ David Spade
Snl quotes by David Spade
I went to Second City, where you learned to make the other actor look good so you looked good and National Lampoon, where you had to create everything out of nothing, and SNL, where you couldn't make any mistakes, and you learned what collaboration was. ~ Bill Murray
Snl quotes by Bill Murray
Hey! Remember the '90s?
The Clintons were in office, everybody was using AOL, Will Ferrell and Cheri Oteri did "the Cheerleaders" on SNL, and everybody thought Oasis was fantastic.
In hindsight, we were all a bunch of potato-salad-eating jackasses. ~ Julie Klausner
Snl quotes by Julie Klausner
There are some really funny women at 'SNL,' man. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
In my experience, 'SNL' has Lorne Michaels, who is, you know, the captain of the ship and gives the show direction and a singular focus, whereas 'MadTV' - even in my 13 episodes there - had maybe one too many cooks and was a bit more chaotic creatively. ~ Taran Killam
Snl quotes by Taran Killam
As far as post-'SNL' career, whatever kind of comes my way that looks interesting, I'll do it, you know? ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
When certain people hear "'SNL' comedy," rightfully so, you expect it to be a certain kind of goofiness. ~ Will Forte
Snl quotes by Will Forte
The nature of 'SNL' is that it's so in-the-moment. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
'SNL' was a dream come true for me. It was a fantastic year. I don't have any regrets. ~ Michaela Watkins
Snl quotes by Michaela Watkins
'The State' was a huge thing for me. I watched that and 'SNL' together when I was 15, 16. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
I want to be host of 'SNL.' I want to work with Steven Spielberg, Leonardo DiCaprio, J.J. Abrams, Emma Stone and Tim Burton, Sean Penn, Cameron Crowe. I want to work with Adam Sandler - he is so funny - and Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. ~ David Mazouz
Snl quotes by David Mazouz
Even when I was at 'SNL,' I didn't do impersonations. I always wanted to be the kind of person who could do them - I always thought they were the coolest thing on the show - but I didn't have any experience. ~ Tina Fey
Snl quotes by Tina Fey
I plan to join the 'SNL' band as a maraca player and stand behind saxophonist Lenny Pickett. That way they will at least cut to me before commercial breaks. I'll be sure to look right into camera. ~ John Mulaney
Snl quotes by John Mulaney
When I left SNL, I gave Seth a badge of courage, like Dorothy give to the Cowardly Lion ... He kept it in his pocket during "Update" until he didn't need it anymore. Now it sits in a box on his desk at Late Night. ~ Amy Poehler
Snl quotes by Amy Poehler
I was always self-conscious about the fact that I didn't have as much comedy experience as other people at 'SNL,' and I kept thinking they were going to realize they'd made a mistake by hiring me. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
I have to give the SNL crew props - it cannot have been easy to work with me. ~ Darrell Hammond
Snl quotes by Darrell Hammond
From 1985 to 1994, I lived in Manhattan in a big old loft right off Times Square. I could walk to work, which was in a couple of Broadway theaters, to Howard Stern's studio, and to 30 Rock for 'Letterman' and 'SNL.' Even in New York, walking to work is homey and folksy, like living in a small town. ~ Penn Jillette
Snl quotes by Penn Jillette
'SNL' is the first real job I've held for more than a month and a half. ~ Hannibal Buress
Snl quotes by Hannibal Buress
At 'SNL,' I wrote political stuff, but I never felt the show should have an axe to grind. But when I left in '95, I could let my own beliefs out. ~ Al Franken
Snl quotes by Al Franken
'SNL' is one of those jobs where you are constantly reminded of how lucky you are and that you get to meet some of these people whose work you enjoy. Then you get to meet them, and they are just wonderful people. It turns out wonderfully, and you have a great conversation. ~ Bobby Moynihan
Snl quotes by Bobby Moynihan
I'm lucky enough to have two different platforms to perform on - I do stand-up comedy, and I have 'SNL.' That's where I make my most controversial statements because I can explain myself and I'm in control of the microphone, as opposed to Twitter, where it's in the hands of the reader. ~ Michael Che
Snl quotes by Michael Che
If I had signed my fourth season of SNL, I wouldn't have ever had the opportunity to do Curb Your Enthusiasm. If my buddy OG Pearson wouldn't have passed away, I wouldn't have been in L.A. for his memorial, and I would've never auditioned for Curb. ~ J. B. Smoove
Snl quotes by J. B. Smoove
At the time, I was in L.A., just auditioning and hoping to land a part, dramatic or comedic. I started to feel really stagnant, waiting for a part. I was also taking classes at UCB and Groundlings, and at the higher levels, they focus on writing. It was such a relief to be able to write. During those programs, I wrote a one-woman show called Me, Myself, and Iran, and it ended up getting to Tina Fey. She recommended me to audition for SNL, so I got my first of two auditions through her. ~ Nasim Pedrad
Snl quotes by Nasim Pedrad
The earliest stand-up comedy I was aware of was Bill Cosby. I watched Saturday Night Live as soon as I was aware of it, and Monty Python used to be on PBS at weird hours, so I used to try to watch that. And I loved George Carlin on SNL, that was the first stand-up I ever really remember seeing on TV. And then Steve Martin. I guess I was in fifth or sixth grade when Steve Martin showed up, and he was instantly my idol. And Richard Pryor around the same time too, I sort of became aware of him, though I don't remember the first time I saw him. ~ Louis C.K.
Snl quotes by Louis C.K.
What's more important to 'SNL': comedy or buzz? To the writers, players and guest hosts, it's probably the former; to Lorne Michaels and the suits at NBC, it's ultimately probably the latter. ~ Rachel Sklar
Snl quotes by Rachel Sklar
I shared a bed with my sister, Grace, until I was seventeen years old. She was afraid to sleep alone and would begin asking me around 5:00 P.M. every day whether she could sleep with me. I put on a big show of saying no, taking pleasure in watching her beg and sulk, but eventually I always relented. Her sticky, muscly little body thrashed beside me every night as I read Anne Sexton, watched reruns of SNL, sometimes even as I slipped my hand into my underwear to figure some stuff out. ~ Lena Dunham
Snl quotes by Lena Dunham
Eddie Murphy was my guy for a long time. My first exposure to 'SNL' was his 'Best Of' VHS, and I would watch it over and over again. He was one of the few people on the show to play with the live elements and engage with the audience. ~ Taran Killam
Snl quotes by Taran Killam
Both conservatives and liberals watch 'Parks and Recreation,' and they each think the show is for them, which is really cool. 'SNL' was totally different. It was exciting because everyone was paying attention. Political humor works when people know what you're talking about. ~ Amy Poehler
Snl quotes by Amy Poehler
You don't just decide to destroy a person by making up stuff, and no one at 'SNL' is writing to go after someone. ~ Tina Fey
Snl quotes by Tina Fey
In high school, my goal was to be a writer for SNL, then I got into the acting. ~ Illeana Douglas
Snl quotes by Illeana Douglas
What is more nerve-racking: live comedy or the World Series. SNL ~ Amy Poehler
Snl quotes by Amy Poehler
I started 'SNL,' and I became the one who did impressions. I did that, but then I wanted to get an original character on, and that took a long time to get one on that stuck. And then I got Vinny Vedecci on - 'Oh great' - and then it took a couple more seasons to get Greg the Alien on. You have to have some patience. ~ Bill Hader
Snl quotes by Bill Hader
I really like John McCain. He's an awesome dude and was a lot of fun when he hosted "SNL." I'd love to see a McCain-Giuliani "rage" ticket. ~ Tina Fey
Snl quotes by Tina Fey
If I watch an episode of SNL, and there's one thing that I liked, then that's a good episode. ~ Andy Samberg
Snl quotes by Andy Samberg
(When I started at SNL, you could still smoke in an office building. I might not be young.) I ~ Tina Fey
Snl quotes by Tina Fey
The show doesn't go on because it's ready; it goes on because it's 11:30. ~ Lorne Michaels
Snl quotes by Lorne Michaels
I steal props from 'SNL' a great deal. Almost every sketch I'm in, I try to grab something from it, so I have a storage space full of props. ~ Bobby Moynihan
Snl quotes by Bobby Moynihan
It's still amazing to me to walk down the halls of 'SNL.' You see pictures of the greatest comedians we grew up worshiping, basically. It's crazy to be able to still work there. ~ Jorma Taccone
Snl quotes by Jorma Taccone
