Saturday Night Live

From accidental expletives to regrettable lapses in comedy judgment to manufactured ire.

Beloved comedian was found dead on Dec. 18, 1997.

Nobody knew the 'SNL' newsreader would be fired during the show's holiday break.

The actress was kissed and even licked in the wild 1991 sketch.

Comedian committed to the bit in 1982.

Former cast member returned to host less than two months before he died.

They reportedly started dating shortly after Kenan and Christina split.

From "regifting" to the "friend zone", we can thank TV for these words and phrases.
