Martin Short and Billy Crystal were pretty funny.

If I'd have to pick a personal favorite of them all it would have to be Phil Hartman.
He really could do it all. Straight serious and goofy too.

I'm looking for the former, the people who were successful and funny on SNL. Julie Louis-Dreyfus is an good example of the opposite. Lorraine Newman, Garret Morris and Gilda Radner were funny on SNL, but did little outside of it (obviously, Gilda's life was cut short). They would be the types I am asking about here. It can be a little difficult in recent years since SNL has turned into a vehicle for launching comedians into movie or TV careers rather than an end unto itself.

John Belushi - that skit he did where he was an old man walking to a fresh grave as everyone was leaving then looked around and started dancing on the grave was fantastic...so funny to me but pissed a lot of people off. Eddie Murphy - Mr. Robinsons Neighborhood...enough said. Dan Aykroyd - "Jane you miserable slut" and the Bass-O-Matic which he actually drank. Gilda Radner - Rossanna Rossanna Danna. Chris Farley - "Van Down By The River" and Chip-N-Dales Audition Phil Hartman - The man of many faces...so great. Jane Curtain - How she kept it together was amazing and she was funny as hell. I don't like any others so it's all the old school stuff for me.

I had forgotten about a lot of these names so without renaming some of these greats I’ll just name a couple I liked that haven’t been mentioned yet.
I liked Kristin wig and think Kate McKinnon’s pretty good. More I think about it it seems like the last few cast cycles the women have been much better than the men have. When was the last great male comic on SNL? Adam Sandburg has been successful since snl but I don’t really remember him having a real impact on the show other than the lonely island shorts.

I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.
