'Saturday Night Live' replaces cast members Michaela Watkins and Casey Wilson weeks before debut

It's out with the old, in with the new for "Saturday Night Live."

In a not-so-funny move, the venerable comedy show has dropped newcomers Michaela Watkins and Casey Wilson from the show, and hired two replacements: Jenny Slate and Nasim Pedrad.

"I don't think anyone knows what Lorne Michaels was thinking," Watkins told Entertainment Weekly. "The only explanation I got from him, and he's not known to say things just to make people feel better, was that he felt deep down that I should have my own show."

The comedian, who in just one season on the show gained a fan following for her spot-on impersonations of Barbara Walters and Hoda Kotb, took Michaels' at face value.

"He'[s looking at the whole mix of the show and maybe he feels that what I bring would be better served on a sitcom," she said. "SNL was a dream come true for me. It was a fantastic year. I don't have any regrets."

Watkins also praised Michaels for his new hires.

"I think they are going to be exquisite," she said.

The 35th season of "Saturday Night Live" premieres on September 26th.

Honestly I didn't think they would last long anyways.

In all honesty, as much as i liked Michaela's impersonations it's very VERY difficult to stand out umongst the women when you're pinned up against Kristin Wiig. Wiig in my opinion is one of the funniest women in comedy, so it's gotta be tough on the women to try to make an impression. She picked up right where Tina Fey left off.

As for the SNL thursday, i thought it was ok.. it was really nice to see amy and seth back together, and i think they handled the technical difficulty pretty well.

    • Google Finance is now out of beta with improved portfolio tracking and a new Android app by Karthik Mudaliar Google is taking its redesigned Google Finance experience out of beta and adding several new features, including portfolio tracking, scheduled market briefings, and a dedicated Android app. The company says the updates are beginning to roll out globally this week, while an iOS app is planned for later in 2026. The most notable addition is the new portfolio feature. Instead of entering every investment manually, users can upload a screenshot, CSV file, or PDF containing their holdings. They can also tell Google Finance what they own using natural language, such as the number of shares held in a particular company or fund. Google Finance will then place those investments into a dashboard showing performance, asset allocation, concentration risk, and the holdings responsible for the biggest gains or losses. Existing portfolios created with the older version of Google Finance should appear automatically. The built-in AI research panel can use the portfolio as context when answering questions. For example, users can ask which sectors are underrepresented or how their fixed-income allocation could affect long-term growth. Google says portfolio data will remain private and that uploaded files and images will not be retained. Users will also be able to edit or delete their portfolio information after it has been imported. Google Finance is also getting scheduled tasks. These let users request recurring reports such as a daily summary of overnight cryptocurrency movements or a weekly update about newly announced initial public offerings. There is also a new Google Finance app for Android. It includes watchlists, interactive charts, real-time market data, a live news feed, and the same AI research panel available on the web. Google has been gradually expanding the AI-powered Finance redesign since it first entered testing. In April, the experience was expanded to more than 100 countries, bringing its research tools, advanced charts, and market news to a much larger audience. That was followed by a wider European rollout in May, which added features including live earnings calls, transcripts, and AI-generated summaries. The ability to import an entire portfolio from a screenshot or document should make Google Finance considerably easier to set up. However, Android users will have to wait for feature parity with the web version, and Google has yet to say exactly when the iOS app will arrive.

    • Can you give an example of when you would want to use Rufus over the other or vice versa? Just wondering which is the "best".
