Bowen Yang and Keenan Thompson discuss some of the most controversial Saturday Night Live episodes of the 49th season
Bowen Yang seems to have learned well the lesson Tina Fey imparted upon him earlier this year: “Authenticity is dangerous and expensive.” Whatever personal problems he may have had with hosts and guests on Saturday Night Live this season , he’s keeping those problems personal. In a new interview with Variety, both he and co-star Keenan Thompson elegantly sidestepped airing any true dirty laundry about the show’s direction.
Yang expressed justifiable discomfort with the way his career has been tied to Gillis’, due to the fact that they were hired for SNL at the same time but Gillis was fired before ever appearing in an episode. “Anytime our names are in the same sentence, at least in a journalistic way, it always feels deleterious. It feels like one person is trying to undo the other.
