1) she’s leaving SNL soon so knowing she’s an emotional person she’s probably not ready to openly talk about leaving.
2) Since she’s been wearing that ring for almost a year, notoriously private she’s possibly avoiding being on a talk show where she would most likely be asked about that. That and she’s protecting Alison.

Also, her publicist likely tells hosts what they are and aren’t allowed to discuss. Why do you think every time she’s been on Ellen, she hasn’t been prodded about her love life. Ellen is notorious for doing that. I mean she brought Jackie to the emmys etc and not one show host asked her about it after. I think her not being on talk shows had little to do with who she’s dating, and even less to do with the ring she’s been wearing, and more about the fact that she doesn’t have anything but SNl to promote at the moment. And like the pervious poster stated, she usually takes it off for promos, and public appearances.
Re: Kate Mckinnon
Or maybe the ring isnt exactly what you think it is. For all you know she could just wear it as a symbol of being in a relationship or even as a promise ring.

I would agree that it’s just a symbol of being in a relationship and has no other meaning. She doesn’t always wear it. Just speaking from my own experience, my gf and i wear a ring too, but we aren’t engaged or married. It’s just a symbol of our commitment to each other.

Re: Kate Mckinnon
Kate will be in just a couple of sketches & you'll still have some complaining about it being 'the Kate show' & 'she always has to be center of attention' while others like Pete can dominate the ep & that's fine.
RE her departure, if Kate was leaving after next week's episode wouldn't we have heard by now? Unless she really is going to just announce it after she's done to avoid fuss...
Colin had implied pre-covid he was leaving after the election but later clarified that he'd thought about it but considering the current climate it perhaps wasn't a good idea to leave in the middle of a pandemic when jobs are short. Kate's got projects lined up but it's afterwards that may cause her worry & she's always talked about her fear of being unemployed. I highly doubt she would be but things are incredibly uncertain right now & who knows for how long.

Re: Kate Mckinnon
I don't think she is leaving. I think she might just be dipping in and out of the season like Aidy, Cecily and Kenan have and other cast members potentially will to film other stuff. I mean, I could be wrong but the fact that all the other long running cast members are missing episodes this season and no-one is assuming their departure is a sure and certain thing makes me think Kate's isn't either. When at the start of the season tons of people assumed she's be leaving during the season or that this would be her last I just kept thinking that that would be really stupid timing for the very reason you just said. It's a job that Lorne has already indicated is her's for as long as she wants it. It's sure and steady employment at a time of massive uncertainty in the industry. If I was her I would be going absolutely no-where right now. I'd be clinging onto that job for all I was able!Guest wrote: ↑13 Dec 2020, 12:30RE her departure, if Kate was leaving after next week's episode wouldn't we have heard by now?

Hoping Kate is in a lot more sketches on Saturday. Especially because Kristen Wiig is hosting. Would be disappointing if not.

Ah, yes, I watch SNL videos, too! I'd forgotten that until I read your comment. Yes, I'd say that all three things -- cat videos, L videos, and SNL videos -- probably triggered my getting that recommendation for this video.

Re: Kate Mckinnon
I love them.
Reddit seems convinced this is Kate's last show. Personally I think we would have heard about it unless she really doesn't want a fuss but I think she'll miss the first half of 2021 while filming like Cecily/Aidy/Kenan & be back for the rest of the season. Fingers crossed anyway!

I feel better now bc that definitely wasn’t a kate showcase episode. I think she’ll miss a probably the Jan and feb episodes and be back to finish it out.

Yeah, that monologue with her singing alongside Kristen & Maya & how she rested her head on Kristen's shoulder really made me think the rumours were true for a minute!
Disappointed we didn't get more sketches of them though. They're definitely starting to bring out the newbies more - considering the size of the cast, I suppose they need to start proving themselves if they want to be kept on. And where's Cecily gone? She returned from her project 2 weeks ago, disappeared from the goodbyes last week & was completely absent this week. So pleased for Alex that he bagged Biden.

Re: Kate Mckinnon
Why does everyone keep thinking Kate’s leaving SNL She is not a typical cast member where you can maybe expect 7 seasons but only ever a few more after that. She’s not found a niche anywhere else like SNL. But that’s OK- because sketch comedy is exactly what she WANTS to be doing. Shit, Lorne loves her & would probably have her forever if he could I expect her to parallel Kenan in terms of longevity. Just my 2 cents..
Re: Kate Mckinnon
I know this isn't the most loveliest thing to say and I LOVE Kristen Wiig don't get me wrong but was it me or was her face different last night? Did she get botox? I'm so used to seeing her crazy facial expressions that last night her face just seemed different and... Stiff?
Also I'm betting that it could be Kate's last season either this year or next. They're using the OG cast a lot less now. I wouldn't be surprised if most of them decide to leave. It's a big cast after all.

Re: Kate Mckinnon
HA a combo - past few years she's been renewing her contract on a yearly basis then Covid hit this latest & people guessed she'd carry over to mid-season & go. Then there's Lorne saying she was back for the election eps which lead to more speculation on a mid-season exit...apparently wrote: ↑20 Dec 2020, 11:34Why does everyone keep thinking Kate’s leaving SNL She is not a typical cast member where you can maybe expect 7 seasons but only ever a few more after that.

Add speculation that Lorne is prepping, hence the huge cast, for a mass exodus after this season with Kate, Aidy, Cecily, Colin, Michael, Beck, Kyle & Pete leaving. I mean that is a lot to be leaving at once! Colin seemed a definite but has now played that down since Covid.
And then it comes down to just plain old misogyny for me. Some, esp Reddit, seem to think Kate hogs the attention & needs to leave to give the others airtime - something they don't insist on any of the men doing. Same story whenever a female comedian gets a lot of attention. Happened to Kristen. Leslie. They're starting to turn on Maya now & that's after demanding her return a few months back! The only women they have time for at the moment is Melissa or Chloe because they're less at the forefront & where they prefer women if you ask me!
Imo, SNL is Kate's dream job so why should she have to leave to appease these miseries if she continues to enjoy it & Lorne is happy for her to remain there as long as she wants?

I think also her staying alittle longer than normal might be because of her steady relationship with Alison who also works at SNL... why would she leave to film movies around the world when she can keep her dream job and see her lady every day?

Some, esp Reddit, seem to think Kate hogs the attention & needs to leave to give the others airtime - something they don't insist on any of the men doing. Same story whenever a female comedian gets a lot of attention. Happened to Kristen. Leslie. They're starting to turn on Maya now & that's after demanding her return a few months back! The only women they have time for at the moment is Melissa or Chloe because they're less at the forefront & where they prefer women if you ask me!
Imo, SNL is Kate's dream job so why should she have to leave to appease these miseries if she continues to enjoy it & Lorne is happy for her to remain there as long as she wants?
Side note I'm so happy for her new relationship. I hope they're doing well and that she's the one.
Re: Kate Mckinnon
Yes, she's seemed a lot quieter this past year. Obv Covid is a factor & I like how she's been discussing the impact on her mental health through Wenowdis. I wonder if it's also because Aidy, Cecily (and Leslie to an extent) have been absent & she's much closer to them than the newer members. Bowen, Ego, Heidi, Chloe & occasionally Melissa are really excitable & all over each other on IG while the veteran rep players who are barely on social media seem to stand back.Guest wrote: ↑21 Dec 2020, 08:11I don't blame her. This year has been a blur for everyone. I wouldn't be surprised if her motivation has dropped as well. I think her energy we've all fallen in love with is still there it's just tucked away right now.Guest wrote: ↑21 Dec 2020, 04:48I think also her staying alittle longer than normal might be because of her steady relationship with Alison who also works at SNL... why would she leave to film movies around the world when she can keep her dream job and see her lady every day? I feel like as she’s getting older she’s slowing down and wanting more security.. I donno since covid I feel her vibe and energy is really mellowed out and slowed down and that could be because of a mix of things... getting older.. having a steady partner , maybe since she’s won her emmys she feels she’s achieved everything.Guest wrote: ↑21 Dec 2020, 00:17
HA a combo - past few years she's been renewing her contract on a yearly basis then Covid hit this latest & people guessed she'd carry over to mid-season & go. Then there's Lorne saying she was back for the election eps which lead to more speculation on a mid-season exit...

Kate looked more in the thick of the goodnights this week like she used to be though. Alex had his arm around her & once she got to Kristen, they hugged pretty much to the end.
Re: Kate Mckinnon
I wonder/hope Kate and Emily will get to spend Xmas with their family this year
Re: Kate Mckinnon
If the ring and what it represents is so important to her then she'd wear it consistently, in Emily's latest instagram post she doesn't seem to be wearing it. Can't be that important to her if she isn't wearing it in such a personal setting as that.Guest wrote: ↑20 Dec 2020, 07:00This week during the good nights she did... kinda hard to miss it.. it’s shiny lol More often than not she wears it

That video was taken last year lol
Re: Kate Mckinnon
That was last Christmas lol...she started wearing the ring after last Christmas....it doesn’t look like she spent Christmas with Emily and her mom this year. Maybe she went to be with Alisons family in Boston who knows.Guest wrote: ↑25 Dec 2020, 16:32Guest wrote: ↑25 Dec 2020, 15:50If the ring and what it represents is so important to her then she'd wear it consistently, in Emily's latest instagram post she doesn't seem to be wearing it.

Sorry but y'all need to stop with the details. Weird already that you know where Alison's family are let alone exploiting it over a chat forum.

Exploiting how? It’s common knowledge that Alison is from Boston...
Re: Kate Mckinnon
Well I personally did not know she is from Boston so I guess it's only common knowledge after one does their stalking lol.Guest wrote: ↑25 Dec 2020, 23:39Guest wrote: ↑25 Dec 2020, 22:20Sorry but y'all need to stop with the details.

Re: Kate Mckinnon
Her career is independent of romantic relationships, from what I’ve observed she seems extremely professional in that regard. But I’m sure it’s an awesome perk to work with her significant other.Guest wrote: ↑21 Dec 2020, 04:48I think also her staying alittle longer than normal might be because of her steady relationship with Alison who also works at SNL... why would she leave to film movies around the world when she can keep her dream job and see her lady every day?

She’s not found a niche anywhere else like SNL. But that’s OK- because sketch comedy is exactly what she WANTS to be doing. Shit, Lorne loves her & would probably have her forever if he could I expect her to parallel Kenan in terms of longevity. Just my 2 cents..
Add speculation that Lorne is prepping, hence the huge cast, for a mass exodus after this season with Kate, Aidy, Cecily, Colin, Michael, Beck, Kyle & Pete leaving. I mean that is a lot to be leaving at once! Colin seemed a definite but has now played that down since Covid.

Re: Kate Mckinnon
I think Kate might have sold her apartment..on a behind the scenes SNL photo of her arm bumping Tim chalamet she was wearing a Shafer Mchale team shirt. They are a real estate team here in New York. Maybe her and Alison bought a apartment/house together?
Re: Kate Mckinnon
OR and I’m just spitballing here, that’s the real estate team that sold her the apartment she currently lives in.Guest wrote: ↑30 Dec 2020, 18:07I think Kate might have sold her apartment..on a behind the scenes SNL photo of her arm bumping Tim chalamet she was wearing a Shafer Mchale team shirt.
