If you've watched it you'd know that Baldwin and McCarthey are pretty much regulars at this point. "Cast member" or "non-cast member" they're getting paid by SNL more than any cast member. Also, you're making a pretty nice trend of going against the grain of whatever I post, just because I called you out like 3 months ago. It's OK tho, continue to laugh at your own weird posts, bro. Maybe you can become an adult one of these days and move on from your petty little tantrum.

So in addition to watching it every week, but hating it, Wacky also watches all of the social media promos throughout the week, but hates them.

Got it.

[420seriouscat69]

I saw it posted on twitter, Abe. Just thought it's funny they've made a recurring role member a host twice this season, when neither of them have anything really going on right now. I've always enjoyed the show, I just called out how liberal it is and everyone lost their collective minds.

This is just too rich.

"Cast member" or "non-cast member" they're getting paid by SNL more than any cast member.

also not true.

brief summary...

you said they're cast members-they aren't.
you said they've been in more skits than half the cast members-they haven't.
you said they get paid more than any cast member-they don't.

[Tobias]

more like dr fact check

[star seed 7]

Ab had the number one movie in America when he hosted, but I guess that doesn't count as anything.

Mm has been pretty busy the last few years, so I assume she is working on something, but maybe not

Agreed

[420seriouscat69]

How much do they get paid then, Dr Rick? Would you say they're reoccurring guests or how do you want to describe Baldwin being on retainer? Was it that big boss baby movie that made him so relevant he has to be on every week?

[Cartierfor3]

Keep Boss Baby out of this. That movie is effing hilarious

[star seed 7]

I think the president being a buffoon has made him relevant to snl lately

For like a week. It's a spring movie (all spring movies are crap). It was already ranked as one of thee worst movies of the year. It got a whopping 53% on rotten tomatoes too, but yeah, it was huge!

[WarmYellowLight]

Baldwin only makes like 1200 an episode

WC I told you once that movie effing funny. You say something bad about it again and there will be consequences.

The Worst Movies of 2017

12.
The Boss Baby (2017)

[Tobias]

lots of wacksplaining going on itt

[Cartierfor3]

I'm tired of these movie critics thinking every kid movie needs to unwrap the human brain like Inside Out. Boss Baby was the perfect balance of fart jokes and situational humor with a nice tidy ending.

[Dr Rick Daris]

yes. I would say that recurring guest would be a good way to describe what he currently does on snl with the trump thing. like warm yellow light said, he makes less than 2k per appearance so your asertion that he makes more than the cast members is not close to being correct. also, he has never been a cast member. also, his first snl hosting appearance was in 1990 and he has hosted another 16 times since then for a total of 17 times in 18 years. this means that he pretty much hosts an episode a year and has done it for almost 20 years. he clearly seems to enjoy doing it and they certainly like having him. he has hosted snl more than any other person ever. wow!

Melissa McCarthy first hosted snl in 2011. Like Baldwin, she has never been a cast member. She also hosted in 2013, 2014 and 2016. this year will make it 5 out of 7 years for her and will allow her into the snl five timer club with people like ben affleck, justin timberlake, scarlett johansson and christopher walken.

Is Steve Martin too old to host any more?

[Mrs. Gooch]

Actual cast members get paid a lot more than Alec Baldwin.

By the late 1990s, new cast members received a salary between $5,000 and $5,500 per episode, increasing to $6,000 in the second year and up to $12,500 for a cast member in their fifth year. Not sure how much they make now, but probably more than in the 90s.
