šŸŽ™ļøĀ SNL Hall of Fame Water Cooler — Cecily Strong: Legacy, Laughter & Leaving it All on the Stage

This week around the water cooler, it’s all about the powerhouse that isĀ Cecily Strong — the longest-tenured female cast member in SNL history.


Shari recaps her emotional and hilarious nomination episode with Kirsten Rajala, while Joe and jD dig into Cecily’s unique place in the pantheon of cast legends. We talk emotional range, character depth, musicality, and the moment she madeĀ a clown, a drunk, and a right-wing lunaticĀ feel… human.


We compare Cecily to past Hall inductees like Jane Curtin and Molly Shannon, as well as ballot hopefuls like Ana Gasteyer and Aidy Bryant. Plus, we break down this week’s SNL episode, highlight our Hall of Fame and Hall of Shame sketches, and reflect on what makes an SNL farewell truly stick.


This is theĀ lastĀ nominee episode in the SNL Hall of Fame series — and it’s one for the books. šŸ’„
