'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.

    • I used a Pixel 10 Pro XL when it first came out for about 8 months. When I first got it, it was using Google assistant and that was fast, when asking it to call somone etc. Then it automatically switched with some update to Gemini. Doing even the simplist of things like asking it to call someone in my contacts was soooooo slow compared to Google assistant. I guess it had to go out to the cloud to do that? Back on iPhone and while Siri is dumb right now, it does do those simple things, like call someone, set a timer, star the stop watch etc, really fast. That an while I like Google Material Design 3 over iOS 26, they Pixel 10 Pro XL was so slow in comparison to the iPhone 17 Pro I am using.
    • I use Gemini in my rotation of AI clients...that work pays for. It is good at most things, better than copilot for imgage searching and making images, worse at writing vs Claude and way worse at hadling technical issues when it comes to Azure stuff. I also use YT premium and maps. Anything else Google is a pass for me. I have now seen multiple people locked out of their Google accounts for reasons that are just very vauge.
    • Microsoft is building an AI datacenter that "uses less water than a fast food restaurant" by Ivan Jenic Image: Microsoft Microsoft has announced plans to build a new datacenter campus in Pecos, Texas, as the company continues to invest billions in AI infrastructure. The new facility, called project Kilby, will reportedly have a capacity of 2 gigawatts and will be one of the largest single capacity additions in the company’s history. To power the campus, Microsoft signed a 20-year deal with Chevron to supply natural gas from the Permian Basin, America's largest oil field. This deal is set to become the largest collaboration to date between a U.S. oil and gas giant and Big Tech. It’s no secret that Big Tech has often been criticized for exploiting natural resources for its AI developments. Microsoft is trying to mitigate some of that negative consensus by promising to build its own power supply for the new datacenter, independent of the public grid. The Pecos datacenter will be powered by a power plant hub, built by Chevron, with up to 2.5 gigawatts of gas-fired capacity, with potential to scale to up to 5 gigawatts. The facility will include at least seven GE Vernova turbines, with first power potentially coming online as early as late 2027 or early 2028. The power plant hub is part of an approximately $7 billion investment by Chevron, making it one of the largest dedicated energy projects tied to a single datacenter campus in the U.S. Microsoft hasn’t publicly disclosed the amount it’s investing in the new datacenter. Microsoft has also committed to implementing a closed-loop cooling system that will only require an initial water charge to operate. The company said that “the total lifecycle water use of this datacenter is only a fraction of that consumed annually by a typical fast-food restaurant.” What the press release doesn’t mention, however, is how much water the natural gas plant itself will consume, or how a 20-year fossil fuel commitment squares with the company's pledge to be carbon negative by 2030. The construction of the new datacenter should provide over 6,000 construction jobs at peak build-out, and create hundreds of operational job roles once the facility is built. Via: Reuters
