SNL Ending at Season 50 Sounds Right, Says Kenan Thompson

Following Lorne Michaels’ comments about his possible retirement from Saturday Night Live, cast member Kenan Thompson has weighed in with his thoughts about the show’s potential future… or lack thereof.

Michaels, who spoke with Gayle King on CBS Morning in December, has discussed his commitment to staying with the show until its 50th anniversary.

“I’d like to see that through and I have a feeling that would be a really good time to leave,” the show’s creator, showrunner and executive producer said.
