I was talking to RSF about this - many of the young cast who get cut are usually bombing as sketch writers because they don't fit the SNL mold. There have been a few talented comedians who flamed out in just the past decade- Casey Wilson, Jenny Slate, Noel Wells, Brooks Wheelan off the top of my head.Kind of surprised. He was the multi-talented singer/dancer/actor type that usually hangs around for a little while. A poor man's Terran Killam, but I thought he had potential. Oh well.
Jay Mohr, Janeane Garafalo, Sarah Silverman, Robert Downey Jr. all left the show after 1 year, and Chris Rock almost got cut from SNL even while he was becoming a stand up star - he left SNL just to be a guest star on In Living ColourYeah. It's not for everybody. I stumbled upon a Rolling Stone ranking of SNL cast members from 2015 and there were plenty of people who are pretty famous now who didn't register on SNL. I had heard of most of them like Ben Stiller and Sarah Silverman. But I had no idea David Koechner and Michael McKean had been in the cast. I completely forgot Rob Riggle was on the show for a season.
