Kenan Thompson Teases Possible SNL Exit: ‘It’s Gonna Suck’
Kenan Thompson told People that he definitely thinks about leaving Saturday Night Live, acknowledging that saying goodbye would be painful after his 2003 start. As SNL’s longest-tenured member, he notes there are many people behind the scenes and that departures—like Bowen Yang and other cast shakeups in Season 51—will make the eventual farewell feel like a huge change. He even quipped about ripping the bandaid and running out the back door, underscoring how integral the show has been to his life and how difficult it will be when the time comes.
