I know this is probably a no brainer as to who is first but second and third place may be intresting. Which Saturday Night Live alum has done the best film work?

No contest.

After him:

Ferrell
Aykroyd
Myers
Murphy
Sandler
 
Difficult to choose only one. I could say Bill Murray, Steve Martin, John Belushy, Chevy Chase,Billy Crystal. Eddie Murphy, Dan Aykroyd, Martin Short,Will Ferrell , etc.

Adam Sandler is one of the unfuniest things in a movie or in a tv program ever.

Okay, I'm going to write this in bold print, in big font, because it's a common mistake everyone makes, and therefore it won't be made in this thread again:

STEVE MARTIN WAS NEVER A CAST MEMBER!
 
Best careers

1. Murray
2. Larry David
3. Will Ferrel
4. Chevy Chase
5. Eddie Murphy
 
i'd have to say Steve Martin...he was the best cast member SNL ever had.

Ok, i see it, im myopic but not that myopic. I know that he wasnt an official cast member of the SNL but he colaborated on it very usually. He was in a lot of programs between 1975 and 1982 and he appeared a lot in that program.

Not an official member, but yes a regular guest.

True, but he wasn't a cast member.

And I'm sorry if I came off as an ass, but you won't honestly believe how many people beleive he was an official cast member. I'm an SNL fanatic, so I'm a bit pretentious and anal retentive when someoe says something inaccurate about it.

But yeah, if you want to count Martin as an unofficical cast member, yeah, he'd probably be second to Murray. Also, Chase had some good stuff.
 
norm macdonald is currently the voice of a beaver for a canadian cellphone company's advertising campaign, so clearly he should be the winner.


ETA: brodie, the auditor. :P

When you talk to a beaver think of Norm

Oh my god, that's what I'm doing. Even in my private life, I'm accounting. Graggggh!

Not problem, tony, dont worry. I did a mistake because i didnt post that Martin was an unofficial cast member. Also, your avatar is very nice. Grace Kelly, what a beautiful and classy woman.

I remember the news program presented by Chevy Chase, " hello Im Chevy Chase and you are not". ***ing hilarious.

Eddie Murphy monologues were great also. And Dana Carvey impersonating style was amazing.

Thanks for the compliments about my avvy. I love Grace. Most beauitful woman ever in my opinion.

Hartman and Carvey were the best impersonators. Too bad Hartman's nolonger with us and Carvey's career went down the ****ter.

Chase was great for awhile. His Ford, which was basically him falling down, was brilliant. And yeah, Weekend Update with him was awesome.

Murphy is quite possibly the most important cast member in the show's history, simply because he singlehandedly saved it from getting cancelled.
 
Bill Murray then Eddie Murphy

OKAY, STOP STUFFING THE BOX WITH WILL FERRELL VOTES!!!:cmad:

Whats wrong with will ferrel?

You asked for the votes, I don't think he is the best, but he is certianly top 5, and I would have no problem with him winning, cause he made me laugh ON Snl more than Murray, but I think Murray has had the best film career so far, but that could also change because Farrell is really quite good.
 
Whoa I didn't even know RDJ was an SNL alum, I am voting for him he freaking rules

Where is the love for Larry David? He wrote on their for like 3 years, and since then he created one of the best sitcoms ever Sienfeld, and writes and stars in one of the best sitcoms today in Curb Your Enthusiasim
 
jrp has a hard on for Ben Stiller. :o
 
Bill Murray having to appear on the same poll as Tracy Morgan and Kevin Nealon is a preposterous indignity.

Is it an indignity that they where all on the same show? I don't think it is preposterous at all, it isn't like Morgan is beating Murray
 
Really, some of the guys on the poll shouldn't really be there, since a lot of them didn't even have a film career after SNL.

1) They weren't on the same show
2) Don't take words so seriously
