Will Forte is awesome!! He's not just on SNL; he's a writer too. He's done stuff for That 70's Show and stuff for Letterman. People who are commenting negatively on this board obviously don't watch SNL and just want their name somewhere on the internet.

I agree that the ESPN skits are very funny, a whole lot funnier than most of the weak sketches that SNL does now days. I usually DVR the show that way I can fast-forward through the lame parts which means I usually watch the 90 minute show in 25 minutes or so.

Will Forte is my favorite.... I will miss him.

And to all of you who say SNL hasn't been good in years, you obviously haven't been watching. There is no possible way you could watch for the last 10 years and not found anything funny. The only bad season was somewhere in the mid '00's (like 04 I think, after ferrell left) Even if you truly don't like it, why read an article titled "SNL" and then comment on the article. Doesn't seem like you don't care about the show.

I'm sorry, but I never did thing Will Forte was very funny, As for SNL in general, the only things consistently funny are the political stuff, and the fake news. WAY too many skits are just dumb, where you wait for a punch line that never comes. Notable exceptions are the Daily Dish with Alec Baldwin and the girls, and lately Betty White. Lorne has done some wonderful stuff at the helm, but it's long past the time when he should go home and count his money. Sorry, but it's true.

SNL will have one less funnyless person on it's staff.

I never heard of this guy.

SNL is only good at 12:10, when the fake "News" is done. It's only really good season(s) were when they had the Not Ready for Prime Time Player's as the cast (John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Jane Curtain, etc.)

who friggin cares. SNL hasn't been funny or entertaining in YEARS

Sorry to hear that Will will not be returning...he'll defintely be missed. I've been a huge SNL fan since the early days...still a very hip, cutting edge show...and I watch it now with my 13-yr old son, who looks forward to it as much as I do. Love the current cast and can't wait for the new season.

Sorry to see Will go, but I already have the perfect replacement.
