Molly Shannon Bruised Herself
From 1995 to 2001, Molly Shannon was a cast member of SNL. An unpopular Catholic school girl named Mary Katherine Gallagher was one of the show’s stars’ characters. Because she dislikes “perfect girls” in television shows, Shannon crafted the character to be moody and awkward.

Nobody Liked Steven Seagal
During Steven Seagal’s SNL appearance in 1991, Lorne Michaels called him “the worst host ever.” The actor pitched a sketch about sexually assaulting women, which is particularly disturbing in light of the numerous allegations leveled against him. It wasn’t just actors and crew that he was mean to, either.
