The SNL Cast no one remembers

Known as the season when Lorne Michaels returned as producer, the 11th season was a rocky one for SNL. That is not to say they didn't have talent that season. At first glance at the cast, you can't believe that some of these people were ever on SNL. That cast includes: Joan Cusack,Robert Downey, Jr.,Anthony Michael Hall, Randy Quaid, and Damon Wayans. All of these actor were on for one season due to low ratings and possible cancellation. The only ones to come out of the season were Jon Lovitz and Dennis Miller. They even had three future Simpsons writers to write sketches. So why can no one remember this cast? Well because it sucked. It sucked so bad that the season ended with the entire cast shown to be trapped in a room as a parody of TV show cliffhangers. Credits rolled with question marks on each name, signaling that the viewer didn't know which cast members would be returning the next season.
