Yikes. I think Taran appeared in the most sketches last year out of every cast member.

Obviously one of the replacements will be a minority....funny or not. Never really heard of either of these guys...although I don't watch SNL anymore. It's been garbage to me for over 10 years now.

That is unfortunate. They are two of the best cast members at present.

SNL has massively declined in quality. They are right to jump off that ship.

I was never a Jay Pharaoh fan. Taran was talented, wonder what he does next

I thought jay pharaoh was under utilized. Was excellent at impersonations.

I think the moment they lost me for good was with Gilley. I didn't know what the hell was so funny about that character, yet they kept bringing her back, so I just chalked it up to "I guess I'm officially too old to be watching this show anymore", lol...

I dunno, I have nothing against many of the new-ish cast members when I see them in movies, but for whatever reason, they just didn't click with me when they were on SNL...

I liked Taran on the show but his homage to Robyn's Call Your Girlfriend video the week that she was on the show is my favorite of his.

I feel like everyone always bashes SNL but it's always been what it is now.
Mostly stupid crappy skits that fall flat with the occasional good one and rare amazing one. People love to talk about the great skits back in the day but they never talk about the shitty ones, it will be the same way with the generation.

Hell I'm on a boat is probably top 5 best things they've ever done and it wasn't that long ago
