re: 5 Worst Cast Members in SNL History

Garofalo has been funny in other things but she was doomed on SNL. They didn't use a single idea she had and she was mostly a background character. The writing was not just on the wall, it was writ in the sky in big burning letters that she was not going to make it.

Oddly enough, I think she's a far better dramatic actress than comedian. I could say the same for Sarah Silverman.

I liked her in The Truth About Cats and Dogs; her character in The Mystery Men has her moments but I don't know how much of the scenes I disliked were because of her or because of direction and writing. I did get the feeling that later on anytime she was onscreen, she was expected to play the same snarky, sarcastic attitude. Definitely got typecast.
