Saturday Night Live has added comedian Jon Rudnitsky as a featured player for its upcoming 2015-2016 season. This is one of the only changes as SNL advances into its 41st season – a good thing considering the massive cast upheaval that occurred heading into the 40th season.
Rudnitsky has performed with L.A.’s The Groundlings, a popular improv and sketch comedy troupe that has for years provided SNL with famous comic talent including Will Ferrell, Will Forte, Phil Hartman, Ana Gasteyer among many, many others. Rudnitsky is well known for his popular You Tube videos, examples of which are included below.
Saturday Night Live kicks off its 41st season Saturday, October 3, with host Miley Cyrus.
