Saturday Night Live audiences are sure to miss Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant, Kyle Mooney, and Pete Davidson–and so will fellow cast member Bowen Yang. Speaking with Entertainment Tonight, Yang called the departing stars “distinct presences, distinct voices, and four people who were sort of the best to ever do it.”
“It is just these four people who have defined what that show is in the last decade,” he said. McKinnon is reportedly the longest tenured female cast member in the show’s history with 11 seasons under her belt. Bryant was on the show for 10 seasons, Mooney for nine, and Davidson for eight.
