[@Enzombie]

Taran Killam was really underrated, great impressions and always nailed it, he deserved better

[@debbiedoodiedandi]

I was shocked when he was fired. He's amazing

[@benedictjones8912]

Chris Parnell for me is so underrated. Absolutely hilarious, never cracked and has gold standard delivery yet never gets credited as GOAT

[@areitz1962]

Parnell has done alot after leaving SNL.

[@jaylucien669]

Merv the Perv

[@Kim-id4ce]

Don't agree that hes the GOAT, but he was def hilarious and massively underrated

[@laserdinosaur1]

@@areitz1962 SUUUUUPPPPRRRRESSSSSING FIRE!

[@saoirsedeltufo7436]

Plus he massively helped The Lonely Island when they were starting up

[@markpatterson2764]

Also Rachel Dratch from that late 90's era was fantastic and hasn't really killed it since

[@gingerkid1048]

People totally sleep on her.

[@robfab5204]

She's weird

[@Kim-id4ce]

Oh yes Rachel Dratch! Love the Debbie downer skits

[@quincee3376]

Ya!! She was good on The King Of Queens too.

[@lobaggins3328]

Mark Patterson she’s voice acting

[@zakkhetfield1963]

Nasim Pedrad was incredibly underrated in my opinion

[@minervaloves]

Absolutely!!

[@jeromychavez6121]

Absolutely! Couldn't agree more!

[@samknox1]

Absolutely. Never put a foot wrong the whole time she was there.

[@rashakim1]

YES!

[@caseyrayharris.esquire489]

What you take my comment because I didn't bother to spell check her name?

[@bobbypinkston9374]

Bobby Moynahan is incredible too. Love that guy

[@onrubywings]

I laugh at him in EVERY sketch. He's so naturally funny.

[@brianmills7136]

Cheri Oteri is deeply underrated. So many of Will's hit sketch's were with her. Their chemistry was amazing.

[@MrJonathanSmith]

Darrell Hammond is underrated, he can do so many spot on impressions

[@AF-dn2bz]

Melissa Villasenor -- she is being duped of screen time at present. A massive talent that lady.

[@dantewill76]

So true. Melissa is hilarious!!! They need to let her do her thing.

[@COMPFUNK2]

Yeah, she’s the new generation’s Abby Elliott.

[@toddsmitts]

Hopefully when Cecily, Aidy, and Kate leave, she'll get noticed a bit more.

[@cbikle]

@@COMPFUNK2 Abby Elliott kinda got caught up when she and Fred Armisen were secretly hooking up while he was in a relationship with Elizabeth Moss.

[@robfab5204]

Omg yes her impressions are amazing

[@hustleman85]

Tim Meadows may be the most underappreciated cast members, and he was there forever.

[@jeromychavez6121]

Love him!

[@mojisolashabi]

A 1000 comes up for that

[@larrydavid4924]

The Ladies Man is the sneakiest best movie SNL ever produced! Yeah that sounds good ...

[@JSalonsky]

So ubfunny

[@ricimercury9490]

He is in so many films as a minor character, he needs a major role

[@MrPatoya]

The writers are underrated. The performers get more credit as they’re on stage. Also I believe Will Forte is underrated and overshadowed by the other cast members.

[@coreysturner2748]

Luke William loves will forte

[@coreysturner2748]

Loved

[@845835]

Jim Carrey was lucky that Lorne turned him down because his humor would not have been as well embraced at SNL as it was on In Living Color. I can guarantee you his ideas would have never made it past Lorne's desk.

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

From my understanding, Adam Sandler got the gig over Jim Carrey. And then Lorne ended up firing Sandler.

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

And Tom Kenny (Spongebob) was also passed over for SNL, in favor of David Spade.

[@truthbringer-6748]

He would've killed it though. He was awesome on "in living color". That show was way funnier than SNL.

[@jey4908]

Lorne wasnt on SNL when Jim Carrey was rejected

[@Toast960]

Thing was it wasn't Lorne, it was Jean Doumanian who turned him down during that horrible sixth season in favor of Gilbert Godfried. Jim's kinda lucky he didn't get that stink attached to him.

[@Gunman610]

Rachel Dratch is the most underrated SNLer. Incredible writer, hilarious improviser and performer, but she doesn't look like she would be on the cover of Vanity Fair, so she gets to eat shit, which is stupidly unfair.

[@mm369]

Cheri Oteri is in my top 5 best cast members she was the Kristin Wiig of the 90s

[@COMPFUNK2]

You do realize that Kristen became a cast member long AFTER Cheri did, don’t you? Thus, your comparison should be the other way around.

[@omorado]

Cheri is absolutely at the top of the list of the cast that should have “made it” after leaving.

[@tbam73]

Yup. Will broke (deserved) but its still out how the rest just didnt do anything. That stinks

[@jerrymammoser1509]

omorado absolutely. Read what I posted.

[@majesticpbjcat7707]

Kyle Mooney is the current underrated cast member. Dude is hilarious

[@redacted2275]

I agree... sadly he's not black or latino on SNL universe so he can't complain.

[@OvSpP]

Heidi Gardner is mad underrated.

[@martywhitevan]

Phil Hartman is another

[@Kaddywompous]

Really funny, but niche appeal.

[@JAGADEY]

martywhitevan ?? Phil was never underrated and he did well after leaving

[@bigneon_glitter]

Kevin Nealon is massively underrated. His Weekend Update was gold. Cheri Oteri had godlike comedic timing but she was maybe too weird to place in the big time. Same with Kattan. And Corky Romano is a funnier film than it's rep suggests. Roxbury is a classic.

[@AF-dn2bz]

HPMcQueen when Will befriended Molly, Cheri dropped off the map and lost her place. Sad because all three were geniuses, but Cheri really disappeared, and yes she was awkward socially it appears but a gem of a person too.

[@robdon3472]

Her Ross Perot is the best political parody SNL has ever done

[@njuta]

you guys want some cookies?

[@shawnuel]

HPMcQueen I have to admit that Otero and Kattan grated on me immensely. Sometimes, subtlety is appropriate. Not for those two.

[@sto620]

Keenan Thompson is SNL’s longest running cast member and a master sketch comedian, yet apart from movie roles when he was basically still a kid, he hasn’t broken through in Hollywood.

[@RyanInLA]

Rachel Dratch was the most underrated cast member from those years.

[@yankeeladee02]

Steve Hartman and Jan Hooks were pure GOLD in their sketches together. Phil may have been the most versatile male cast member of all time. I think Kate McKinnon would be the most versatile female cast member of all time. Darrell Hammond also gets overlooked for his versatility. BTW, his autobiography was excellent. SNL will always be my favorite show❣️🥰🤩👏🏼🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

[@someguy1141]

In terms of the new cast i think one of the more underrated members is Heidi Gardner. Besides her solid impressions her general acting ability is very impressive.

[@I_WANT_MY_SLAW]

And she's pretty amazing at playing teenagers considering she's almost 40.

[@yellowcougar18]

She gets to be in a lot of sketches tho. But I think she sort of suffers from being a bit cute, girl next door, imo. Cheri Oteri was hot-and she never got appreciated, possibly because of that.

[@debbiedoodiedandi]

She's a star, for sure.

[@rdsox86]

Several types of SNL cast members 1) One season and out :no screen time and don't amount to much afterward (1985 cast) 2) One season and didn't fit (Sarah Silverman, Tim Robinson) 3) 3 to 6 season talented main cast and nothing (Oteri, Pedrad) 4) 5 to 9 seasons and still famous (Fey, Poehler, Fallon, Ferrall) 5) Wouldn't leave (If Kenan leaves there will be a massive void)

[@thedeliciousrecap]

Robert Downey jr is an notable exception to that 85-86 cast

[@raydonahue1978]

Lots of mid '80s cast members were famous after.

[@ellemathews9840]

Nasim has been in a few things since SNL. She was just in Aladdin and made her own show Chad.

[@debbiedoodiedandi]

@@thedeliciousrecap Well, RDJ is an amazing actor and very funny, but sketch comedy was not his forte. Also, Dennis Miller, Jon Lovitz and Nora Dunn were all part of the 1985 cast and stayed beyond that season.

[@Fortnitekid1427-o5k]

Probably the first person I’ve heard say anything nice about Chris Katan

[@TsetsiStoyanova]

SNLers are an amazing crew

[@Kim-id4ce]

Mid to late 90's SNL was my favorite! David Spade, Will, Cheri, Chris Kattan, Chris Farley, Jim Bruer.. Than later, Jimmy Fallon.. Ugh so good. Miss those times.

[@jimgeary]

IMO, Cecily Strong. She brings a depth of humanity to these characters in five-minute sketches. Like 25% of the time I even forget how attractive she is.

[@TheMattmatic]

She’s incredible.

[@lynxvex]

Cheri Oteri is so underrated and underappreciated :-/

[@StuUngar]

It was a huge deal when Chappelle hosted a few years back. Sandler was a big deal this year. Always a big deal when you get a comedy legend for the first time or one who’s been out of the limelight for awhile. Also, while Norm MacDonald is appreciated by comedians and comedy fans think he’s a genius, I don’t think he was ever appreciated by the mainstream crowd

[@shanedavid9923]

That Norm MacDonald, something about his eyes.

[@bunnyblurrz]

StuUngar Norm was not only the best weekend update host but he was also good at sketches and impressions (also wrote some of the best too) even though he disliked doing them.

[@jdlang62984]

StuUngar Dave Chappelle’s walking dead sketch was pure gold!!!

[@DavidGriffin-ww2fk]

Norm is probably the funniest person to ever do the show period.I would put Bill Murray a close 2nd to Norm.

[@jgbgw591]

I love seeing Chris Kattan get recognized. He was really exceptional on SNL.

[@DavidGriffin-ww2fk]

I don't know he seems sorta gay ro me.

[@quincee3376]

I loved Nasim Perdrad . Vanessa Bayer too.

[@junebuggy34]

Chris Parnell. Darrell Hammond. Tim Robinson, and soon to be Kyle Mooney. All really valuable in their own way, never got, or is going to get their due.(everyone besides Hammond)

[@caseyrayharris.esquire489]

Tim Robinson became a writer for the show

[@OvSpP]

SNL also turned down Donald Glover, twice I think! But at least someone from NBC got something out of him.

[@FM-ke1wb]

R u serious??????????? Wow

[@JustinCoasters]

Guess he couldn’t do Obama as shitty, I mean as good as Fred Armisen

[@chris71388]

Donald Glover’s stand up is so-so. That’s why he didn’t get the part.

[@inkonpaperhero]

At this point I think SNL knows people who have the potential to be "too big" for the show, and don't pick them up because they wouldn't fit well in an ensemble cast. Jim Carrey, Louis CK, Donald Glover, Kevin Hart, those guys are juggernauts. Almost feels like it's intentional that they miss on superstars and hit on guys like Beck Bennet instead.

[@wetknuckles]

Being so far up your ass doesn’t really make for good sketches.

[@JerkyPuck]

Cheri Oteri is one of the most underrated SNL alums ever.

[@Mrbink01]

Horatio Sanz has my vote for most underrated.

[@douglasjgallup]

Rachel Dratch was one of my very very faves. I loved her on Broad City, too.

[@shivamjaiswal439]

In recent times Sasheer Zamata, Melissa Villasenor, Taran Killam pop up in mind.

[@OvSpP]

Eddie Murphy is hosting SNL Mr. Robinson fans: *grabs popcorn

[@wvu05]

Where is the love for Abby Elliott and Casey Wilson? Both extremely underrated and didn't seem to really get a chance on the show.

[@jeromychavez6121]

Love those gals!

[@yellowcougar18]

Abby got unfairly maligned-maybe there was a grudge held against her because of her dad?

[@DPMusicStudio]

Abby Elliott is charming and so funny

[@darthlazlo]

Cheri Oteri all the way. Timing and great facial reactions.

[@MackofejFTW]

And he starts with Kattan ofc, no doubt the most underrated snl actor

[@darthlazlo]

Kattan for Mango and Mr. Peepers.

[@47imagine]

Agreed. Cheri Oteri's lack of follow-up success always puzzled me

[@SuperJake169]

Had the pleasure of seeing Late Night Seth Meyers in person in December of 2018. Amy Adams was the featured guest. Set is hilarious and supremely kind as well. They don’t show him walking up into the audience during commercial break letting us ask questions, which is what he did. I think he did it as a bit on the show once, but apparently he does it once every night as well. He was very nice to all of us.

[@DanBrown96]

bobby moynahan (sp?) was amazing and did not enough hype!

[@Ajhost88]

Although, to be fair, I think Jim Carrey actually auditioned for SNL for the infamous Jean Doumanian season in which he got passed over along with the likes of John Goodman and Paul Reubens....and considering we got the likes of people like Ann Risley in their place...dear lord...

[@ShinRyojin]

Doumanian was a colossal fuck up of a producer. I still imagine to this day what if Lourne never left and he hired Jim Carrey and John Goodman.

[@PotatoeChipz]

yes. opinion here, but I heard Lorne thought Jim was too "edgy" for SNL. Back then i'm assuming it meant that there was no chance he'd be on the NBC stage.

[@RaymondHng]

Victoria Jackson...dear lord...

[@JustinLeeper]

I love whenever Melissa McCarthy hosts.

[@4seeableTV]

Speaking of Cheri Oteri, Ferrell just hosted the show this weekend, and it would've been fun to have her come on and do the cheerleading character with Will again. But I don't think they've ever had her back. WHY??

[@caseyrayharris.esquire489]

Nasim pedrad!

[@845835]

Good call. Very attractive but unfortunately went under the radar during her stint.

[@rickycollins7723]

[@tannermarkland6402]

Norm MacDonald was hilarious

[@Dr.Strangmeme]

Or So The Germans Would Have Us Believe.

[@MLOB96]

[@bilalc4415]

Lol it's still early....something can turn up! Chris Kattan Molly Shannon and Cheri Oteri......that was 20 years ago, during Will Ferrell's time, time has passed and they're nowhere, that's why it's heartbreaking.....shit, even Darrell Hammond. I think that's the problem with Darrell and Jay.....pure impressionists usually don't make it after snl.

[@jamestownsassacre9211]

Nasim all the way. She always seemed light years ahead of everyone she was in a sketch with.

[@JustinCoasters]

Casey Wilson, Michaela Watkins, Noel Wells too

[@nicolegeorge3704]

No.

[@riase]

Pharaoh was not funny at all. He was able to do impressions of some black celebrities' but as an original character he was not great. Sasheer was not great either. Nasim is fantastic and she showed her talent in Scream Queens. Vanessa is hit and miss.

[@done1675]

Rachel Dratch is also very underrated.

[@gbrot001]

Sasheer Zamata’s name definitely belongs on that list for me. I don’t think they had ANY idea what to do with her. Thankfully they seem to be handling Ego’s tenure much, much better.

[@NeilTruick]

Given his recent "apology" and backtracking of things he did a hundred years ago, I'd be curious to see what survives today. He'll be genius, of course...

[@tenplex]

Wasn't the story that Chris Kattan and Cheri O'terri were kind of mean people to the cast, particularly new cast members. I remember hearing that. No one liked them because they treated everyone poorly.

[@bigneon_glitter]

Yep. Tracy Morgan said Oteri & Kattan had egos & treated him like shit. Too bad, because they were both talented.

[@omorado]

Let’s just say they were like that.. when has that ever stopped an entertainer from being wildly successful? Hollywood is full of a-holes.

[@bea4156]

tenplex Oh dear I hope not! I read the opposite in that they’re both really sweet but Cheri was actually very shy with new people in person and poor Chris had a hard time with being bullied incessantly by Norm MacDonald and that made him a little stand-offish when he was still a junior cast member

[@christopherkotsopoulos701]

Tracy Morgan has gone on record saying they were shitty to people like him

[@hustleman85]

I know Tracy Morgan said in his book that he didn't like them.

[@ronrubicon1593]

Jon Lovitz and Horatio Sanz are the two most overlooked SNL members. I also thought Victoria Jackson was awesome. Rachel Dratch, too.

[@Dumpweed971]

Chris Kattan was great. Corky Romano was a criminally underrated movie. That scene where he’s on blow talking to the kids...

[@Joeschmo13]

[@yakojjy]

It is a shame that there are so few sketch comedy shows now. Back in the day we had SNL, In Living Color, MadTV, Whose Line is it Anyway. And even All That, among a few less relevant others. Those were the golden years. It's Malarkey

[@scottstorey7543]

Kyle Mooney is totally underrated on the show! If you watch the sketched he does on his own channel they are way funnier than the sketches he’s been in on snl!

[@victorli2000]

I think Jim Breuer was underrated. Goat Boy always made me laugh.

[@Apogee816]

Kevin hart didn’t get in Bc Lorne has a sense of humor

[@edgarveron8309]

Taran Killiam and Vanessa Bayer werent appreciated enough back then! They literally killed every sketches they were in, not to mention they hardly broke. Current SNL tends to overuse some casts like Cecily, Kate, Beck, and Kenan making them fit into as many sketches as possible while taking spotlight away from the rest of the casts. Its been Melissa Villasenor and Alex Moffat's fifth season, and they barely lead any sketches:(

[@timw7841]

[@Simone-xj3nu]

Sasheer Zamata was so underutilized it was criminal.

[@chovue2363]

Chris in corky romano and molly in superstar are some of my favorite comedy movies. 🤣

[@jonathancampbell5231]

Jim Carrey was turned down because he was already getting famous on his own and Lorne wanted to give lesser-known talent a shot. I might be wrong but I think Carrey was even told this going in to the audition but decided to do it anyway just for fun.

[@TRal55]

Yes Cheri Oteri and Chris Kattan!!!

[@dHolbach77]

I remember watching SNL back in the late 90's in my teens and at first Chris Kattan was huge while Will Ferrell was like his side kick and no one really liked him (I personally thought he was annoying/mildly unfunny though I did like his James Lipton and of course Celebrity Jeopardy...although I thought what really made that were the other cast members/hosts and certainly Darrell Hammond). Eventually that totally reversed, but it wasn't until Old School that Will Ferrell really took off. That was when people who didn't like him on SNL (including me mostly) were like "Ok, he's funny". He's still not my favorite, but I never liked Kattan that much either despite his popularity (I did like him better than Will on the whole on SNL though: Mango and Suel Forrester were great characters--Mr. Peepers was not imo--and his Antonio Banderas and Andy Dick were perfect). I have heard that Kattan and Oteri are..."difficult" fwiw. That could be part of what happened to their careers.

Stewart could, in no way, do what Stephen Colbert did for nine years on _The Colbert Report._ Playing a well-intentioned but idiotic conservative put people off guard for quite a while.
