Bobby Moynihan to Exit 'Saturday Night Live' After 9 Seasons

Moynihan has proven himself to be one of SNL's strongest cast members since he joined in 2008 and has since become one of the most popular and recognizable comedians now on the show. "The deranged characters you played & the giggles they produced in me were priceless". Moynihan was at the CBS' upfront presentation today, introducing the show and his co-stars onstage where he noted that he was in a hurry to go to his "other show". "He was supposed to stay forever and then die of old age on that set".

During his 9 year run, Moynihan has amassed a huge list of unforgettable characters, with his epic Weekend Update character Drunk Uncle possibly being the most recognizable.

The comedian is now the second longest-serving performer on the NBC sketch comedy series behind Kenan Thompson, who has been with the show for 14 seasons.
