The Worst Post-SNL Career Failures
Amy Poehler is leaving Saturday Night Live after the November election to have her first child and focus on her as-yet-untitled upcoming primetime NBC series. Complex wishes her all the best, but we’re prepared for the worst.
While many former cast members have gone on to make great comedies and achieve success, others weren’t built for stardom and failed miserably. Check out seven SNL alums whose careers Poehler should avoid at all costs. Pay attention, Andy Samberg.
HORATIO SANZ (1998-2006)
We were totally gay for Boat Trip but everything he's touched since he left SNL has gone straight down the shitter.
JIM BREUER (1995-1997)
His career went from Half Baked to fully burnt quicker than a Hot Pocket in hell.
VICTORIA JACKSON (1986-1992)
Her Christian comedy and children's songs are fine, but thanking President G.W. Bush (sincerely) for doing a “great job” makes her a failure as a human being.
TIM MEADOWS (1991-2000)
In his defense, there are so many successful black actors to compete with in Hollywood.
JOE PISCOPO (1980-1984)
One thing we can say about his post-SNL filmography'Dead Heat is definitely the best zombie-criminals-meet-zombie-cops action-comedy ever!
ROB SCHNEIDER (1990-1994)
See, you can make a career out of holding onto Adam Sandler’s pocket.
CHRIS KATTAN (1996-2003)
He should’ve recognized Corky Romano as the best thing that would ever happen to him. Other than Sunset Tan cameos.
