"Saturday Night Live" alums Aidy Bryant, Kate McKinnon, Pete Davidson and Kyle Mooney performed their final sketches as full-time "SNL" cast members during the show's season finale on Saturday, hosted by Natasha Lyonne.
While there have been rumblings for years now of Davidson's desire to part with the show that, along with his dating history, made him a household name; Bryant and McKinnon came as a surprise. Mooney, who joined "SNL" in 2013, remained somewhat in the background for the finale, appearing alongside Bryant and McKinnon in a closing sketch about grey adult ponytails, which is either an indicator of his decision to allow more obvious stars to shine, or further proof that "SNL" is notorious for playing favorites. Host Lyonne, star of the current Netflix series "Russian Doll," also seemed to bow to Bryant, McKinnon and Davidson, allowing them their big night in a setting that would otherwise likely be overtaken by Lyonne's big personality. Out of all of the take-aways from the finale, however, one thing is certain. "Saturday Night Live" is going to be pure trash without Aidy Bryant.
