Hell yeah. Belushi, hands down.
What? No more piggies? :-( my bad for being kinda late. I think Chevy wqas the best.
Honestly, I loved them all it was great in those days.
Belushi... Cheeseburger, Cheeseburger, Coke, No Coke, Pepsi
and those great Joe Cocker imitations- priceless
What no Mr. Bill?
That one is a classic. I have that on a best of SNL tape, yes VHS!! LOL
Me too!
John and Gilda
John Belushi for sure.
Loved both John and Gida. But, if I HAD to choose one - Gilda has the edge for me !!!!
Michael O'Donoghue was great- I loved his writing for National Lampoon as well
John Belushi, cheeseburger, cheeseburger, chips,chips..pepsi pepsi pepsi
Renowned Death Hag
Mr Bill !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
actually I liked Fridays much better. Shame its not on DVD. I heard ( could be an urban legend ) that SNL's Lorne Michaels bought the rights of that show just so Fridays would never see the light of day again. In other words Michaels only wants SNL remembered but not Fridays.
Friday's was great! I remember seeing the Clash on there- spectacular performance- and I loved Chartoff!
John Belushi.... He had the ability to make laugh just by raising an eyebrow.
I had a crush on Larain Newman
You are soooo true about the eyebrow thing- he needn't utter a word- just a lift of the brow said so much!
I loved Gilda. If anyone wants to read a good book, read her autobiography that she wrote when she was going through cancer. I cried my eyes out. I could really feel her pain. Cancer must be one rough, scary thing to go through. She died way before her time, and I love to see old clips of her on SNL.
I also love Steve Martin, as the 'Wild and Crazy Guys' was always so funny.

I loved them all. Dan Ackroyd was soooo funny. Bass o Matic, Fred Garvin, male prostitute...mainway toys...doing Tom Snyder...loved him.
Remember Michael Richards on Fridays? He was flippin' hysterical.
That is a great book. I loved it she was so strong during that illness.
Gilda Radner hands down for me! Especially, the Rosannadanna skits and the "Hate Jennifer Show" skits ("I'm sitting here making a crown and Jennifer's up in her room because she hit meeeee........it's the hate Jennifer show!) and the one with the boyfriend "Todd".

Gilda.
Oh oh...howabout Candy gram, candy gram. Land shark. Big joke in drug rehab back in 90. lmao...oh the memories.
I loved the all original "Not ready for primetime players." But I voted for Gilda.

My favorite Aykroyd line was "Jane you ignorant slut."
We just don't have quality TV anymore...
John Belushi. Remember Hit Al Hirt with a Brick?
Renowned Death Hag
For me it was: Gilda Radner.
Chevy Chase was hired just to write for SNL before becoming a regular!
His new book "I'm Chevy Chase and your not" is a must read!
Clears up alot of false stuff about Chevy!
Gilda..just loved her! and after that I guess John Belushi..he always cracked me up!

Anything Gilda did I loved....
Kim
Dan Akroyd doing either Super Bass-o-matic '76 or Mel's Char Palace.
I love Azriel Abyss and Circe Nightshade from the Goth Talk skits. My husband and I watch them on YouTube all the time.
I think they're hilarious characters. Unfortunately, they're not too far off the mark from some of the goths I know either.
I liked Rosanne Rosanna Danna.
LOVED the Sweeney Sisters (the Holiday Inn lounge act)...'clang clang clang went the trolley'....!!!!!!
and YES--Roseanne RosannaDanna was one of the all time greats!

Dan Ackroyd as that Mainway guy who sold stuff like Johnny Human Torch Halloween costumes and Johnny Bag O' Glass Christmas Toys. "It's science. Look! They're prisms! Very educational.". And ofcourse his half of the Festruck Brothers.
Gilda Radner as Rosanne Rosannadanna, Lisa Lubner and doing the Judy Miller Show.
Chris Farley as Matt Foley.
Adam Sandler as the Herlihey Boy. Fucking creepy yet hilarious.

Too many to list! But I echo everyone's votes! I love when Alec Baldwin hosts (Paul Schewtty is my favorite character). Will Ferrell in the "Hatub" eating spiced meats. One of my favorite skits is with Christopher Walken (the Cowbell one is second to this) http://video.aol.com/video-detail/wa...angus/11109665
