Trivia
Tim Meadows and Chris Parnell are the only cast members to be fired and then rehired the following season (Meadows was fired between seasons and didn't miss any episodes). James Belushi was fired during his tenure but was rehired the following week. Announcer Don Pardo was also fired before the seventh season in an effort to revitalize the show. He was replaced by Mel Brandt. But Pardo was rehired the following season.
The 1980-1981 season was so disastrous that NBC called in programming executive Dick Ebersol (one of the creative masterminds of the original show) to save the show. Ebersol fired producer Jean Doumanian and the rest of the cast except Eddie Murphy and Joe Piscopo. He hired a new cast and was able to put one show on the air before a writers' strike shut down production for the remainder of the season.
When the show first debuted, it did not air every weekend. The news magazine show Weekend aired "the first Weekend every month" (except when it was delayed one week for Eric Idle's first SNL appearance).
When Eddie Murphy was first hired, he was not a regular cast member, he was a guest performer who was given nothing to do. He threatened to quit until he was given a segment of Weekend Update to perform. He was so funny, he eventually appeared in sketches and became a regular cast member.
Several episodes were not performed in Studio 8H in Manhattan. On October 16, 23 and 30, 1976, the show moved to a Brooklyn studio because the NBC News election unit used Studio 8H for 1976 elction coverage. Several episodes in 1984 were produced in RCA Bldg Studios 8G and 2A due to election coverage. The February 20, 1977 episode was performed live in New Orleans.
Ray Romano was originally supposed to host the show for the second time in April 2002 but had to drop out due to a busy schedule. He was replaced by 'The Rock' .
Steve Martin is the only person to host a season premiere, a season finale, and a Christmas show and is the only person to host the show three times in a single season.
Will Ferrell became the highest paid cast member in SNL history in 2001. He received a salary of $350,000 for the 2001-2002 season.
Tina Fey is the first female head writer in the show's history.
John Goodman hosted the show 11 years in a row.
