Kate McKinnon didn’t leave “Saturday Night Live” because she wanted to. Unlike some former “SNL” cast members, McKinnon loved being a part of the show’s cast. “All I ever wanted to do in my whole life was be on Saturday Night Live,” McKinnon revealed during an episode of “Live! With Kelly and Ryan” in 2022. Unfortunately, the job was hard on her body, even though she likened her time on the show to “the best decade.” She said, “And then I was just, like, my body was tired, and I felt like it was time.”
During an August 2022 interview with Vulture, McKinnon spoke about the show’s intense schedule. “Leaving was in the back of my mind for a while, because it’s just a grueling schedule,” said McKinnon. “I mean, I could do it for the rest of my life, happily, if the schedule were not so grueling and if I was not naturally a person who liked to wake up at 8 a.m. and go to bed at midnight.” McKinnon also revealed that she knew her time on the show was up when she started having trouble staying awake until 1 a.m. “And I was like, ‘Okay. I have to go. As scared as I am and as sad as I am, it’s time.’”
