Kristen Wiig SNL replacement, If the rumors are true, Lorne Michaels is about to get some news that will rock the Not Ready For Prime Time Players. An insider tells Us, "Kristen Wiig, Andy Samberg and Jason Sudeikis are all leaving after the end of the season. It will be a huge blow to the show. Without Andy's video shorts and Kristen saving every skit, they'll need help!"
If the three heavyweights, who joined the cast in 2005, exit the show, there will still be plenty of talent in Studio 8H. However, cast members like Abby Elliott and Bobby Moynihan have yet to prove that they can carry a sketch on their own. SNL has already hired Kate McKinnon of the Upright Citizens Brigade in an effort to fill the funny lady vacuum that will be left by Wiig's exit, but if the show loses Samberg and Sudeikis as well, it's going to have to hire a whole new batch of comedians who can write, act, and do a passable Hillary Clinton impersonation.
So how can SNL survive? First, it can turned to some underused talent who are already on the payroll. Jay Pharaoh has been featured on the show since 2010, and his impressions of stars including Denzel Washington, Eddie Murphy, and Will Smith always bring down the house — so why do we only see them on every third episode? Writer John Mulaney has done a few "Weekend Update" segments, but it's time for him to pull a Tina Fey and start doing more work in front of the camera. Just watch his hilarious segment on Girl Scout Cookies:In the past, comedians hoping to make it big had to land a role on SNL or a network sitcom, but the existence of YouTube has changed all that. Some of these comedians' work has probably made it to your inbox, but they deserve to have a crack at making the next "Lazy Sunday":
