That's really my point.  The big stars from SNL that went on to become household names in days gone by would now be in some apple streaming show that no one watches.  

Who was the last big breakout star? Someone from the Andy Samberg era? Him, Seth Meyers, Sudekis, etc.

Edit: Yeah, considering when Ted Lasso took off, I think the answer has to be Sudekis.

Hader has had a really nice career, but Stefon remains his high water mark.

Yeah, I’d say Sudeikis is a star. He was having a pretty nice movie career before Lasso.

Miss Eggy was a beacon of originality on the SNL landscape. She'll do fine in movies. Will be missed.

 

Dammit. They FINALLY figured out how to use her and she leaves. I agree with all the posters upthread, this sucks. 
 

Alleg sly the regulars are on 7 year deals. I imagine her contract expired and SNL wanted to save some cash.

I think sitcoms and streaming shows are the venue for SNL people now. That's where you find former cast members like Beck Bennett, Bobby Moynihan, Taran Killam, Cecily Strong and Alex Moffat. They also do a lot of voice work for animated shows. 

You made his point because...who? Beck Bennett? Alex Moffat? Taran Killam? Might as well be Youtubers my grandkids follow because those guys have negative name recognition.

I'm sorry you have difficulty remembering cast member names. Perhaps if I posted their pictures, you might remember them. Go back to bed, grandpa.

It is rare I will watch a full episode without falling asleep. In my defense, it's late and Saturday football wears me out.
