'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.

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.

    • Just the price of doing business. The scamble to pull as much from the web as possible is happening, and it's happening before a case like this changes how or what is legal do to with AI in terms of data harvesting. But even then as we've seen with the likes of Google who ignore cookie requests and just accept the fact they'll get fined, it's built into their business price model now. AI is here, its not going away. Their reward if any from the court case would be best suited to trying to incorprate AI or licence their end points as authentic human verified content. The problem is, as we've seen these same news papers are using AI themselves.

    • This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of by Hamid Ganji While companies like Apple and Samsung have been relatively conservative with their devices’ battery capacities in recent years, Chinese manufacturers have taken the competition to the next level by introducing significantly larger batteries. However, the latest report from China suggests that a local company may already be developing a smartphone with a whopping 14,000mAh battery. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that a smartphone maker is developing a device with a 14,000mAh battery. If true, it would be the largest battery ever used in a smartphone and could, in theory, provide up to a week of battery life on a single charge. The leaker did not reveal the name of the company behind the device, but there are some clues. This week, HONOR unveiled the X80 Pro Max in China with an 11,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging support. The company also launched the Honor Win in January, which packs a 10,000mAh battery. HONOR, a former subsidiary of Huawei, has a proven track record of developing smartphones with unusually large batteries. However, other Chinese brands, including Xiaomi, have also launched devices such as the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max with 7,500mAh batteries. Though Chinese users on Weibo also believe the company behind the new battery is HONOR. Interestingly, Digital Chat Station said the device with the 14,000mAh battery weighs around 220 grams, making it lighter than the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (233 grams) and slightly heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (214 grams). The iPhone 17 Pro Max currently packs a 5,088mAh battery in eSIM-only versions, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra features a 5,000mAh battery. Neither device is expected to see a dramatic increase in battery capacity in its next-generation successor. So when it comes to battery comparison, Chinese brands are unbeaten. HONOR smartphones are currently available in the EU, but the Chinese brand has no official presence in the United States due to restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.
