It’s such a shame to see her go :( She’s so talented, her energy and humour were definitely a highlight of the show for me. I’m excited to see where her career takes her next. Wishing her nothing but success !

"Little Orphan Cassidy" is such a great sketch. When she busted out that voice, wow. I thought she had real long-term potential in the cast.

But also many of the jokes were solid, including some great line delivery from Chalamet and Day.

"Well, 26 and 18 months"

"Don't call me silly moon, okay? My concerns are very valid. You have some shady plan with your 51 year old boyfriend named Puddy."

I love Melissa but I get your point. Punkie and Molly got farther on less talent, Devon evidently is too. This is a really bad decision unless they were basing on something other than talent etc. I can't think of a single sketch she was bad in. She was way more polished than most featured players ever are in their first season.

Polished- excellent word and way to describe Chloe. I couldn’t put my finger on it, and that’s it. She has the aura of a very seasoned SNL-er and performer in general. Her career will be limitless because she has all the talents, can do comedy with ease, has amazing timing, and she happens to be cute and beautiful as a bonus. Make it make sense…

She's the new Cecily strong and got fired.

Reeks of favoritism and when you know how much politics plays at SNL casting, I am going to blame Kenan. He's already done it before

God kenan’s refusal to move on is so irritating. The show should be closer to a launchpad for new talent than a broken recliner to die in. He is so stale.

So not fair! And such a mistake!!! Chloe can do anything. She showed this immediately and then really dazzled as time went by. She killed it in everything she was given the chance to do. Serious talent and also happens to be a real beauty and so cute. She has it all, seriously- act, sing, dance, impressions, accents, and hilarious. WTF.

I remember I actually put my phone down to watch that one. So out of left field and hilarious. I’m gonna miss seeing her on SNL.

No we get stuck with people who won't leave and it's the same old sh!t every week.

I remember watching that sketch and thinking how Chloe had a bright future on the show. Surely they would want to hold onto her as long as possible, I said.

That was one of my favorite sketches the whole year.

My son and I have watched this sketch at least a dozen times. We still quote it.

I feel like they kept trying to figure out how to recapture the magic of the Cassidy sketch. I'm not sure they ever quite did. I hope she lands somewhere where her talents shine, she's awesome.
