Story at Zap2it. Jenny Slate and Nasim Pedrad are joining the cast of Saturday Night Live for its upcoming season, and hopefully these women can get some good material. In the last few seasons, Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler have left the show, leaving a huge void in the program for talented female cast members. Out of the women who replaced them, only Kristin Wiig has really broken out. I do put a lot of the blame on the writers, as there hasn't been as many memorable sketches centered around women, since Fey stopped being the show's headwriter. With regards to the two joining cast members, I'm particularly excited for Jenny Slate, whom I usually find funny. Just please let her get a memorable character.
