The big question in New York television these days is: who will be fired from Saturday Night Live? Well, Fishbowl New York has the inside scoop on at least two of the cast members. Looks like we are saying goodbye to (the adorable, hilarious) Chris Parnell and (the annoying, only funny to his cast mates) Horatio Sanz.
An informed tipster tells us Saturday Night Live's Chris Parnell — he one-half of the Lazy Sunday rap duo [above, right, with Andy Samberg] that became a cultural phenomenon and watershed moment for viral video on the Web — and Horatio Sanz are included among the four job cuts expected as the show enters its 32nd season.
Also, FBNY blabs, new head writer Seth Meyers (yes, he's still doing shit) will take the Weekend Update seat next to Amy Poehler. Making the show more or less officially fucked.
No Love For Narnia? SNL Job Cuts To Include Parnell, Sanz [Dylan Stableford, Fishbowl NY]
Update: The show's Will Forte is also exiting stage left. You know when most people hear your name and go "who?" you probably don't stand a chance at keeping your job on TV.

Finesse Mitchell. For the love of comedy, let one of the cuts be Finesse Mitchell.
I can't believe you're saying this about all these cast members. Do you KNOW comedy? It's people like you…
P.S. Great website! Couldn't even get into any of the links. It looked good when I first came on, but if you can't even access any of your key sites…there's a problem.
