Congratulations!!!
Just wanted to say congratulations to current cast members Leslie Jones and Kate McKinnon as well as SNL alum Kristen Wiig on becoming the new team of Ghost Busters in the much anticipated reboot. I have a crazy feeling that this movie will be epically hilarious(especially since the 4th member of their team is three time host Melissa McCarthy) !

One of the best!
As you all know(if you've read my blog previously), my mom's a long time SNL fan. For this reason, whatever aired the week prior would possibly be quoted, mirrored, or discussed until the newest episode aired and a fresh sketch would be served as the new week's hot topic. There was one particular reoccurring sketch that would always be reenacted and talked about constantly. I have the distinct memory of my Aunt Charity(who was staying with us at the time) and Mom sitting on the couch and mimicking Wayne and Garth for my grandmother and for anyone else that watched. Just the simple movements and gestures my mom did as Garth made me realize that Wayne and Garth were the coolest people ever and because of this, I would go to school and pretend that I was Wayne and Garth and perform the "Wayne's World" theme song to all of my friends and instantaneously be the awesome kid on the playground. So, for this reason, I thought it necessary to write a blog on one of the best SNL cast members of all time, Dana Carvey.
When you look back at Dana Carvey's run on SNL it is nothing short of extraordinary. He had the amazing talent to lose himself in characters and cause me, my family, and so many others to laugh until it's unbelievably painful. When his comedic capabilities were accompanied with his strong ability to be so versatile, he couldn't lose. Dana could play Church Lady, President Bush, or Garth in one episode and there was a million little details that would make each of these characters unique. This is a distinct quality, in fact that many comedians, or even just actors in general crave to have.
It's safe to say that Dana Carvey is a SNL super hero. He brought so much laughter to my family as well as so many others every Saturday Night. Dana is still extremely hilarious and I hope to be lucky enough to catch him on tour as soon as he performs near me. Also, I really hope that Dana is on the 40th anniversary episode as I know, he will kill it, as always.
Below are a couple of links to some of my favorite sketches of his, something new-"The Life and Times of Mr.Orange, as well as the link to his SNL best of DVD. So if you're in the mood to binge watch some sketches or maybe even discover the brilliance that is Dana Carvey, I've got you covered. Also, don't forget to follow Dana on Twittter https://twitter.com/danacarvey

You all have to read this article about Pete Davidson, which I feel is going to be someone around for years on SNL as well as films and television.

SNL Fun Fact
Louis CK actually auditioned for SNL back in 1993 and as we all know, he didn't become a featured player for SNL. That didn't stop Louis CK from still working hard because since then he has done quite well for himself and even hosted SNL twice. You can relive Louis CK's hosting duties with the Link to "Mr.Big Stuff".
