| Title | Premiere date | Main actor(s) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weekend Update | October 11, 1975 | Chevy Chase Jane Curtin Dan Aykroyd |
A satirical news segment starring that is the longest-running recurring sketch in the show's history. Like the show itself, it has seen many changes over the years and has a revolving door of anchors, including Chevy Chase, Jane Curtin, Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray, Charles Rocket, Gail Matthius, Brian Doyle-Murray, Mary Gross, Christine Ebersole, Brad Hall, Christopher Guest, Dennis Miller, Kevin Nealon, Norm Macdonald, Colin Quinn, Jimmy Fallon, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Horatio Sanz, Seth Meyers, Cecily Strong, Colin Jost, and Michael Che. |
| The Killer Bees | October 11, 1975 | First characters to recur on SNL. According to a Lorne Michaels interview for the book Live from New York, "The only note we got from the network on the first show was 'Cut the bees.' And so I made sure I put them in the next show." The bees were played by all the repertory players at the time, who wore yellow and black horizontal stripes, wings, and springy antennas. Much of the humor from these scenes came out of puns or metaphors that had to do with well-known activities and body parts of bees. The bees were a staple of the first season, appearing 11 times. However, the cast and crew quickly became tired of them, and the bees only appeared three more times during the original cast's five-year tenure. | |
| The Land of Gorch | October 11, 1975 | Jim Henson Alice Tweedie Jerry Nelson Fran Brill Richard Hunt Frank Oz |
Puppet sketch starring Jim Henson's Muppets, King Ploobis (performed by Jim Henson), Queen Peuta (performed by Alice Tweedie), Scred (performed by Jerry Nelson), Vazh (performed by Fran Brill), Wisss (performed by Richard Hunt), and the Mighty Favog (performed by Frank Oz).

Her catchphrase was "Never mind!", said after she was informed of her mistake. |

| Mr. Bill | February 28, 1976 | Mr. Bill is the clay figurine star of a parody of children's shows. Mr. Bill got its start when Walter Williams sent SNL a Super 8 reel featuring the character in response to the show's request for home movies during the first season. Mr. Bill's first appearance was on the February 28, 1976 episode. Williams became a full-time writer for the show in 1978, writing more than 20 sketches based on Mr. Bill. Each Mr. Bill episode started innocently, but quickly turned dangerous for Mr. Bill. Along with his dog, Spot, he suffered various indignities inflicted by "Mr. Hands," a man seen only as a pair of hands (played by Vance DeGeneres).[1] The character's popularity spawned the 1986 live-action movie Mr. Bill's Real Life Adventures. | |

| Mickey The Dyke | September 30, 1995 | Cheri Oteri | |
| Rita DelVecchio | October 21, 1995 | Cheri Oteri | Rita DelVecchio (Cheri Oteri) is a grouchy, sharp tongued, Italian-American, Brooklyn housewife. Rita hates it when the neighborhood kids' toys wind up landing in her front yard, so she claims the item for herself, saying that it's hers now, "I keep it!" and tells the kids to go away. Other times, Rita tries to one-up any of her neighbors when it comes to things like who has the best decorated front lawn on Christmas, or who has the better car, etc. |
| Mary Katherine Gallagher | October 28, 1995 | Molly Shannon | Mary Katherine is a sardonic caricature of an unpopular, teenage Catholic school girl. She is prone to comically severe mood swings, alternately hyperactive and ponderous. She suffered from stage fright, but was also hyper-competitive (she once engaged in a sing-off with Whitney Houston) and egomaniacal, believing she was a "superstar". The sketch spawned in the 1999 film Superstar. |
| The Spartan Cheerleaders | November 11, 1995 | Will Ferrell and Cheri Oteri | Although they did not make the East Lake High School Spartan cheerleading squad, Craig (Will Ferrell) and Arianna (Cheri Oteri) decide to cheer anyway, showing up at events where they were not wanted. |
| Stan Hooper | November 11, 1995 | Norm Macdonald | |
| The British Fops | November 11, 1995 | Mark McKinney and David Koechner | The British Fops, or Lucien Callow (Mark McKinney) and Fagan (David Koechner) appeared in several episodes during SNL's 1995–1996 season. The characters first appeared on "Weekend Update" as the presidents of the Norm Macdonald fanclub, but later appeared in several other sketches, namely monologues. The Fops appeared in late restoration period clothing, and used a silly take on the period's language, mannerisms, and culture. |
| Joe Blow | November 18, 1995 | Colin Quinn | A blue collar worker by trade, Blow came onto Weekend Update as a New York public service to deliver local news from Brooklyn, New York. Most of his "news" included family problems and neighborhood gossip. Joe Blow regularly concluded his commentary by asking anchor Norm Macdonald if he would join him for "a beer", which Macdonald (who clearly did not want to socialize with him) avoided by making up an excuse, or putting it off until a later date. |
| Gary Macdonald | December 2, 1995 | David Koechner | Gary Macdonald was the fictitious younger brother of anchor Norm Macdonald. He was supposed to be the funnier of the two Macdonald brothers, but was overcome by fear and froze on camera and end nearly everything he said with "no". Because of this, his commentary consisted of choppy, nervously delivered lines such as, "Hey, Janet Reno. Hey, how does that song go, '(Dude) Looks Like A Lady,' no." |
| The Joe Pesci Show | December 2, 1995 | Jim Breuer | This sketch starred Jim Breuer as Pesci, the host of his own late-night talk show. The heard-but-not-seen announcer was meant to be Pesci's "brother". The sketch usually began with Italian accordion music and Breuer cheerfully saying "Hey. I am Joe Pesci. I got my own show, my cameraman, and all my friends." |
| G-Dog | December 2, 1995 | Tim Meadows | A 1990s sitcom about a bald-headed, foul mouthed gangsta rapper played by Tim Meadows who usually appeared wearing only a Speedo or leather pants. He first appeared in a sketch with Teri Hatcher about a sitcom called "The Princess and the Homeboy". |
| Lenny the Lion | December 9, 1995 | Colin Quinn | Visiting from the Bronx Zoo, Lenny the Lion (Colin Quinn in a lion suit) came onto Weekend Update to talk about his life problems. His accent and set of problems (including a violent father, a chaotic family situation and an addiction to tranquilizer darts) are meant to suggest an ethnic working-class man in the Bronx. Lenny always ended his rant with the line "fur is murder". |
| The Rocky Roads | December 9, 1995 | Will Ferrell Tim Meadows David Alan Grier | |
| Gerald "T-Bones" Tibbons | January 13, 1996. | David Koechner | T-Bones made his first major TV appearance as an executioner, hospital orderly and barber during the 1995–1996 season of Saturday Night Live, when Koechner was a cast member on the long-running comedy program. He made numerous appearances there and served as the focal point of the sketches, making sly jokes and showcasing his redneck mentality as he annoyed others around him. T-Bones became recognizable by his signature appearance of a slicked comb over, long mutton chop sideburns, tight brown T-shirt, and underbite. In the midst of making clever comments, T-Bones often reveals his utter foolishness and speaks with a hint of southern accent. |
| Bill Brasky | January 20, 1996 | Will Ferrell, David Koechner, Mark McKinney and Tim Meadows | The format of the sketches resembles the improv game "Two Describe a Third." Three or four businessmen, known as the "Bill Brasky Buddies", are crowded into the bar during a business conference, drunk on Scotch. They smoke cigars and loudly reminisce about their mutual acquaintance Bill Brasky, known for mythical, superhuman feats. The Brasky Buddies all have red cheeks, red noses, and big white teeth. |
| Kevin Franklin | February 10, 1996 | Tim Meadows | |
| Suel Forrester | March 16, 1996 | Chris Kattan | In each appearance by Suel Forrester he has a different occupation in which good, articulate clarity of speech is very important (a teacher, a trial attorney, an air traffic controller), yet he speaks almost entirely in unintelligible gibberish. |
| The Roxbury Guys | March 23, 1996 | Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell | Satire of nightclubs and clubbing culture. It followed the exploits of brothers Doug and Steve Butabi (portrayed by Chris Kattan and Will Ferrell respectively), habitual clubbers dressed in rayon suits, as they attempt to pick up women on their outings. Their trademark was bobbing their heads in unison to the song "What Is Love" by Haddaway, which always played throughout the duration of each sketch. The brothers were extremely unfortunate with the women at the clubs, often gyrating against them in an attempt to get them to dance, but always causing a negative reaction. They were frequently joined by a third person, often the host, who dressed and acted in a similar fashion (notably Tom Hanks, Jim Carrey, Sylvester Stallone, Martin Short, and Alec Baldwin); this character was usually credited as "Barhop". Skits starring Pamela Anderson and Cameron Diaz were also featured. The sketch spawned the 1998 film A Night at the Roxbury. |
| Bobby Coultsman | March 23, 1996 | Phil Hartman | Sketch about an overbearing, self-obsessed acting class teacher. |
| Goat Boy | May 11, 1996 | Jim Breuer | Goat Boy was a half-human half-goat hybrid SNL character who hosted the fake MTV show, "Hey, Remember the 80s?" He was played by Jim Breuer. At the outset, Goat Boy was a typical veejay-talk show host who introduced 80s video clips and guests from the era. During the sketches, he started braying and kicking and was subdued by scientists standing by with electric prods. |
| Rolf | May 11, 1996 | Colin Quinn |

More information Title, Premiere date ...
| Title | Premiere date | Main actor(s) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Young girl interrupting porn shoots | October 10, 2015 | Aidy Bryant | The shooting of a porn movie is regularly interrupted by a young girl (Aidy Bryant), seemingly unaware of the fictional aspect of the scene she has stumbled into. |
| Citizens forum | October 10, 2015 | Aidy Bryant, Kyle Mooney, Kenan Thompson, Cecily Strong, Bobby Moynihan, various others | An array of eccentric people monopolize the podium during the citizens' forum of Bakersfield, California, to the dismay of two helpless councilors (Bobby Moynihan and Cecily Strong). Also features Aidy Bryant as disgruntled, middle-aged spinster Jan Krang, Kyle Mooney as Dutch rapper MC Strategy, and Kenan Thompson as costume store owner Gary Loomis. |
| Colleen Rafferty | December 5, 2015 | Kate McKinnon | Three people are being interrogated about a paranormal encounter or phenomenon they experienced. But Colleen Rafferty's (Kate McKinnon) recollection of the events vastly differs from the other two (played by Cecily Strong and the host), and is filled with unsavory details. |
| Deenie, somebody's mom | December 19, 2015 | Kate McKinnon | Deenie (Kate McKinnon) inaccurately recaps her favorite soap-operas on Weekend Update while eating from a plastic container. |
| America's Funniest Pets | January 16, 2016 | Kate McKinnon, Cecily Strong | The presenter of an animal-based video clip show invites the two presenters of a French similar series, Joelle LaRue and Noelle LeSoup (Cecily Strong, Kate McKinnon). He asks them to cohost the show and provide silly voiceovers for the clips. But said voiceovers turn out to be more depressing than their American counterpart. |
| True Tales From The Sea | March 12, 2016 | Kate McKinnon | Adventurers down on their luck are rescued by beautiful mermaids, including Shud (Kate McKinnon), a part-woman, part-blobfish mermaid who doesn't exactly enchant the men she's trying to seduce. |
| Shanice Goodwin: Ninja | April 9, 2016 | Leslie Jones | Despite her big stature and general clumsiness, Shanice Goodwin (Leslie Jones), cashier by day and ninja by night, is inexplicably a master of stealth. |
| Chad | April 16, 2016 | Pete Davidson | Pete Davidson plays Chad, an apathetic, easily distracted youth with limited conversational skills whose catchphrase is "okay". He's the heartbreaker of several people decades older than him, but he couldn't care less about their grand declarations of love. In one instance, he is the obsession of a psychopathic serial killer, but Chad takes no notice of the killer's attempts to torment him. |
| Suburban mothers | May 7, 2016 | Vanessa Bayer, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones, Sasheer Zamata, Aidy Bryant, Cecily Strong | A group of suburban mothers engage in cult-like behavior in trying to convert a newer, inexperienced mother into doing something that proved them of their motherhood. |
