It was in alphabetical order. Just like the show does it. Even though I feel it should be in order of tenure. Kenan should always be first since he became the longest tenured cast member in his 7th year.
In retrospect, that 1985 cast was legendary: Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Billy Crystal, Martin Short, Rich Hall, Harry Shearer, Mary Gross and Christopher Guest. We didn't know how good we had it.
I thought we did. Wasn’t that the season where they got desperate and hired established names. I don’t remember that season being very good other than the whole “you look marvelous” stuff from Crystal.
As in December 2024, there are 6 Oscar acting nominees...Dan Aykroyd, Joan Cusack, Laurie Metcalf, Eddie Murphy, Bill Murray, and Randy Quaid. And Oscar acting winner... Robert Downey, Jr.
R.I.P. to all of the cast members shown in this video who have passed. Peter Aykroyd - 1955-2021 John Belushi - 1949-1982 Tom Davis - 1952-2012 Chris Farley - 1964-1997 Gilbert Gottfried - 1955-2022 Phil Hartman - 1948-1998 Jan Hooks - 1957-2014 Norm Macdonald - 1959-2021 Michael O’Donoghue - 1940-1994 Gilda Radner - 1946-1989 Charles Rocket - 1949-2005 Tony Rosato - 1954-2017 Danitra Vance - 1954-1994 Dan Vitale - 1956-2022
Farley & Hartman dying in a 6 month timeframe… just brutal… Farley because his demons consumed him (have “The Chris Farley Show” in audiobooks) Hartman… he was living his best life as described in the biography about him “You Might Remember Me”
This montage really shows how the cast "glowed up" over the years. They went from a not-ready-for-prime-time cast full of awkward, gawky 70s hipsters with little to no makeup to a "so ready for their close-up in a big budget feature" cast full of Hollywood beautiful leading men & ladies.
Notice Christine Ebersole was not announced by either Don Pardo or Darrell Hammond because during her one season on "SNL", Mel Brandt was the announcer (Tony Rosato debuted the previous season on that one show when Pardo was still on it).
@@BallparkHunter It was supervising producer Michael O'Donoghue's idea and he wanted to do it on air but executive producer Dick Ebersol vetoed that! He also votoed firing director Dave Wilson which was also Mr. Mike's idea. After O'Donohue was fired mid-season, Pardo was hired back the following season. As for why Mr. Mike wanted them fired, there was some views of the then-rookie staff of the original shows that both Wilson and Pardo were "too professional" for their jobs and may have wanted amateurs like themselves...
The M's are by far the most stacked. MacDonald, McKinnon, Meadows, Metcalf, Moffat, Mooney, Morgan, Moynihan, Murray, Myers, and Murphy, monarch of them all.
I was born in '76 but my parents didn't let me start watching til I was 12 years old in 1988. As such, my favorite cast is STILL Carvey/Hartman/Hooks/Dunn/Lovitz/Nealon/Jackson/Miller/Myers. There was just something magical about that group of people from 88 to 90. Three short years but they were the next best cast after the original 1975 cast.
Youngest SNL cast member: Anthony Michael Hall (17 when he joined the cast) Oldest SNL cast member: Leslie Jones (47 when she joined the cast) Longest run on SNL: Kenan Thompson (22 years) Shortest run on SNL: Laurie Metcalf ( 1 episode)
I thought George Coe, who was born in 1929, would've been the oldest, even though he wasn't shown or listed (and wasn't even announced but for one time in the credits back in 1975), but he was 46 during his one season on the show.
I watched this and was like "Laurie Metcalf was on the show? Huh?" So thank you for explaining why I never knew that 😂 I know my SNL trivia pretty well, and that threw me for a loop!!
That was amazingly well done, assuming you did it from off air -- remarkably good work not getting the music to fight with one another too badly, though I was watching it on a cell phone which probably helps your cause. ;-)
G E Smith, bandleader & co-musical director of SNL from 1985-95 was another one. During his tenure on the show, Smith (alongside bandmate T-Bone Wolk) became well-known to television audiences for his emotive performances during "band shots," brief snippets of the band playing before SNL went to commercial break. That was back then but still not well-known except mostly to his inner circle today.
70% of this legendary cast were just awesome and made the world great with their other ventures in films and other great comedies. 30 % were unknowns that magically poofed after their season or contracts were done....never to be seen again. Ever.
You missed one - maybe because the names weren't announced in the first season, but George Coe WAS one of the original Not Ready For Prime Time Players. There were eight names on the first title cards, and he didn't even get mentioned in the movie. But he WAS there, from the beginning.
If my memory is correct, Coe was listed as a Not Ready For Prime Time Player only for the first episode, although he did appear in sketches throughout the first season. The intro for the first episode didn't have images of the performers, so there is no image of Coe's face for this video. But then, the lack of a face shot from the intro didn't stop this video from including Michael O'Donoghue. 😊
@@zanti4132 I just looked up some early episodes on Peacock - he was not listed as a NRFPTP in the Peter Cook & Dudley Moore episode, even though he's in the cold open and appears later in the "Prison Audition" sketch that gave us "Gonna Get Me A Shotgun," but in episode 4, with Candace Bergen, they even forgot to show the card with the first four names, and O'Donoghue is actually listed on the second one. Justice for George Coe!
At least a photo of him and the name would have been good enough. And maybe his name is said somewhere else, or someone could have called his name for this video. 😉
And, interestingly enough, those three cast members were on the show for four consecutive seasons. 1975-82: zero Halls 1982-86: Hallapalooza 1986-present: Hall-less
@@GaryDodgerfanThe best part is that they were on for four consecutive seasons, but never at the same time. We had Brad Hall from 82-84, Rich Hall from 84-85, and Anthony Michael Hall from 85-86. And no, none of them are related.
As a lifelong SNL fan, I still like to believe that Candice Bergen, Carrie Fisher, & Steve Martin were actual cast members -- I also like to pretend that Richard Pryor & George Carlin hosted more times than they actually did
Well, roughly 165 cast members and I’ve met seven…. Thank you for the memories of meeting you… Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Jim Belushi, Laurie Metcalf, Randy Quaid, Andy Samberg, and Chris Parnell.❤
According to Saturday Night Live Wiki: Laurie Metcalf is an American actress, who was a featured player on the April 11, 1981 episode. This makes her the shortest-tenured actor to appear in the SNL cast, except for Emily Prager, who was also credited for that episode but did not appear at all. Metcalf's only appearance was a pre-taped piece for Weekend Update.
@@carp68 The 1980-81 season was a disaster. Lorne had left the show and wouldn't return for five years. The cast had been completely overhauled, and I believe many of them, along with the new producer, were fired late in the season. Metcalf was probably one of those brought in late to replace cast members, but it didn't work out. The one bright side of the 80=81 season was the introduction of Eddie Murphy to the SNL cast.
I will never adapt to Darrell Hammond’s wimpy voice intros, after having known the powerful Don Pardo voice for so many years. What is odd is that Darrell Hammond can imitate Don’s voice, and filled in as announcer as Don when he was sick.
@AntiYourFacePhD it makes absolutely no sense to me why they wouldn't hire both Kenan and Kel. They were like the modern day Abbott and Costello. They already had a undeniable track record in sketch comedy. They had already proven to the world that they work well together. They were a proven comedy duo. All of the best sketches on All That were with Kenan and Kel. They already had a hit sitcom together. They starred in movies together. It's clear that they work well together, and make magic when performing together. It would only make sense to hire both of them, since they both auditioned. And it's sad that only now, 20 years later, are we seeing them work together again. And they've still got it. Good Burger 2 was incredible. Just imagine the gold we could've gotten from Kenan and Kel. Imagine if they brought over Good Burger, like they did on the Jimmy Fallon show. Could you imagine if SNL existed back in the day, and you had both Laurel and Hardy audition. And they only hired Laurel, and not Hardy. When Tracy Morgan and Dean Edwards left (Edwards I believe was fired), they were specifically looking for a black cast member to fill the void. Every black comic auditioned, including now famous comics like Kevin Hart. They ultimately hired Kenan and Finesse Mitchell. And no disrespect to Finesse, he seems like a lovely upright citizen. But he's largely forgotten about. Kenan and Kel would've made magic we'd still be talking about today.
HOLY SHIT...... it wasn't until Abby Elliot and Chris Elliot back to back that the thought even entered my mind they might be related....... she's his daughter. awwww.
I started watching "Saturday Night Live" on February 11, 2017 so this video hit me like a tidal wave with nostalgia. That night started my personal golden age of SNL. My personal golden age technically ended on May 22, 2022, the day the May 21, 2022 episode finished airing in the Eastern and Central time zones, due to the then-upcoming cast exodus occuring prior to Season 48. 🤓 The SNL cast members during that era of my life were: Aristotle Athari Vanessa Bayer (only got to see her in a few episodes) Beck Bennett Aidy Bryant Michael Che Pete Davidson Mikey Day Andrew Dismukes Chloe Fineman Heidi Gardner Lauren Holt James Austin Johnson Punkie Johnson Leslie Jones Colin Jost Kate McKinnon Alex Moffat Kyle Mooney Bobby Moynihan (only got to see him in a few episodes) Luke Null Ego Nwodim Chris Redd Sarah Sherman Cecily Strong Kenan Thompson Melissa Villaseñor Bowen Yang Sasheer Zamata (only got to see her in a few episodes) (January 10, 2025 - 12:00 A.M.)
Farley, Ferrell, and Fey in a row is perfect
Miller in the convertible was a1
Daaamn, that sounds like one hell of an episode
A sneak peak for the SNL 50th special
The transition from Andy Samberg to Adam Sandler just feels so, so right.
That's My Boy.... The movie they did together with Blair from Gossip Girl.
I mean, That is his boy!
SANDY SANDBIRDS

Eddie Murphy, Bill Murray, Mike Myers and Kevin Nealon showing up in sequence tell everything you need to know about how packed the history of SNL is.
It was in alphabetical order. Just like the show does it. Even though I feel it should be in order of tenure. Kenan should always be first since he became the longest tenured cast member in his 7th year.
This was the best cast, hands down 😉
Great to choose Steve Martin as the host!
Came here to say the same, it's just perfect.
Yep perfect! Hosted in the 70's and co-hosted one of my favourite episodes *in years* with Martin Short a few seasons ago!! 👌🏻
In retrospect, that 1985 cast was legendary: Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Billy Crystal, Martin Short, Rich Hall, Harry Shearer, Mary Gross and Christopher Guest. We didn't know how good we had it.
Martin Short was just talking about this on the Tonight Show
I thought we did. Wasn’t that the season where they got desperate and hired established names. I don’t remember that season being very good other than the whole “you look marvelous” stuff from Crystal.
This would be an absolutely perfect way to start the 50th anniversary special in 2025.
As in December 2024, there are 6 Oscar acting nominees...Dan Aykroyd, Joan Cusack, Laurie Metcalf, Eddie Murphy, Bill Murray, and Randy Quaid. And Oscar acting winner... Robert Downey, Jr.
And also Kristen Wiig nominated for a script, Michael McKean for an original song and George Coe for a short subject.
The oscars don't respect comedy. So that stat is invalid and doesn't matter.
SNL doesn't respect comedy either, so...
What about Albert Brooks?
@@dariomoreno375 You're right, I missed him! He was also nominated for a Best Supporting Actor Oscar.

Fred going first just feels right
Pretty surprising nobody has a name that comes before A-R
There were SO many that I was surprised to see on this list. It makes me wanna dig in the archives for some sketches...
Now I want an SNL episode with every cast member, although they probably need a few archived sketches for those that have since passed away.
the best intro was the 80s one where they were all king kong

I will never adapt to Darrell Hammond’s wimpy voice intros, after having known the powerful Don Pardo voice for so many years. What is odd is that Darrell Hammond can imitate Don’s voice, and filled in as announcer as Don when he was sick.
He was told to not do a Pardo impression and make it his own by Lorne himself.
Interesting that 0 people in the shows history with a Smith or Williams Surname and only 1 Jones
True...but GE Smith led the band for a really long time so the surname Smith may have been announced more than any other.
