Lorne Michaels greatest legacy as a producer has nothing to do with SNL

I know Conan has told the story a million times of how he got this gig, but can we just appreciate the balls it took Lorne to back this guy to the NBC bigwigs? Yes, Conan was an established writer by the time he got the job but he was still a nobody in terms of performing in front of a national audience and Lorne put his faith in him to take over a well regarded late night program headed by Letterman. I'm not sure that this level of risk has ever been taken by anyone before or after in the comedy world.

When Andrew W.K. played SNL for the first time, he was going to play the other lead single, 'She is Beautiful' as the second performance following 'Party Hard'. Lorne Michael's heard and specifically asked if he would instead play the album's title track, 'I Get Wet'. Sweet Jesus, did he play it... youtube.com/watch?v=TThqQ…

Is it a contractual clause for Lorne Michaels to receive producer credit for whatever show outside of SNL a cast member does?

With the rare exception (Barry and others I might’ve missed) it seems like whenever a cast member does their own show he has some sort of producer/executive credit. Anyone know if a cast member has ever spoken about this? Or is he someone that they go to to get a show idea they have kickstarted? Was watching the new Michael Che show and I noticed he has EP credit but that would make more sense if it was an NBC/Peacock show rather than an HBO max one, but I wasn’t there during the negotiations so idk.

When Lorne Michaels decides to retire and move to the Hamptons full-time, is there an heir apparent?

If I was in Lorne’s shoes I would never retire... he’s got a sweet gig. But last time he left he almost killed the show because there was no one to take his place. Usually in corporate entities there is a line of succession where future CEO replacements are being groomed continually. Do you think there’s anyone Lorne has in mind to take his place when he finally does retire to Amagansett?

Lorne Michaels has called you and said β€œYou get to choose one host for the year 2021, at any point, any time, but they have to be new. Give me the host.”, who do you choose?

They would bring fun energy, different type of hose, probably has been in a sketch before, musical guest 14 times,

We are due for Dave Grohl. I think it’d be a blast.

Okay, give me your host!

Edit: WOW, this post blew up!!! Thanks for participating evrryone. All I can say is SNL, if you’re reading or watching, USE THIS.

I just want to hear what Tina and Lorne Michaels have to say.

Desperately, from the bottom of my heart, all I really want in this life is a no-holds-barred, maybe even slightly tipsy personal narrative, beginning from the moment they first laid eyes on her, the yoga, the cucumbers, the escalating tan, the "wait, is she Catholic ...?" leading up to the wedding, to Christmas 2020 when it all began, then her birthday during the Capitol Riots a week and change later, to right now. Put it in a time capsule for our future generations if you must/if future generations will even exist anymore lmao life is bleak.

I just need these words to be spoken by these people (you can feel free to DM if you want, hey you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. On that note, hire me)

Muchos gracias, hermosos pepinos.

Does Lorne Michaels realise that Pete Davidson wrote a number one Billboard hit song In the negotiator sketch last weekend yet or no? What do you think??

I think Saturday night live fans as well as people randomly tuning in are pretty much in agreement that the song playing in the background of the Negotiator sketch with Regina King was pretty catchy. But <Match Game audience > "HOW CATCHY WAS IT!!"

You're Lorne Michaels. You're sitting in your office and looking at a secret calendar. Over the years your secret to keeping the show fresh has been to get rid of a major cast member after a specific period of time. The time has come. Which main cast member do you fire today? (list in description)

Main cast (i.e. repertory player) according to NBC:

  • Beck Bennett
  • Kyle Mooney
  • Aidy Bryant
  • Michael Che
  • Colin Jost
  • Pete Davidson
  • Mikey Day
  • Heidi Gardner
  • Kate McKinnon
  • Alex Moffat
  • Ego Nwodim
