'Saturday Night Live' was like a university for funny.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
'Saturday Night Live' is a very particular beast. What it celebrates are individuals who can stand out. I did good work there, but going onstage and saying, 'Hey! Hey! Look at me! Aren't I funny?' - that just wasn't my instinct.
When I got to 'Saturday Night Live,' it was a lot like going from pre-school to Harvard, and it took a long time to figure stuff out.
I had a great time working on 'Saturday Night Live.' It was one of the important times in my life.
I used to sneak up to the 8th floor and watch Eddie Murphy and Joe Piscopo rehearsing 'Saturday Night Live' and could only wonder if I would ever have the chance to be funny. It took me five years to go up the two stories, but it is such a sense of fulfillment to be able to show what I can do on national television.
I wanted to be on 'Saturday Night Live' since I was ten.
Unlike a lot of comics, I didn't care about getting on 'Saturday Night Live.' That show had such history and was so established that I didn't see the point.
You can go on 'Saturday Night Live' now and not even play live.
'Saturday Night Live' will always be this amazing, powerful behemoth, but it's also not the only thing happening in comedy anymore.
I love comedy, but I was just obsessed with 'SNL' growing up.
'Saturday Night Live' is live television. Nothing can compare to that.
