Wow, I can't nobody believe that has done a post on this so far. The venerable(some might say interminable) Saturday Night Live is adding 3 new castmembers to its roster, all of whom honed their in Chicago's famed Second City improv theater. The newest Not-Ready-For-Prime-Time Players are Tim Robinson, Cecily Strong, and plus-size cuteypie Aidy Bryant, all of whom will be making their debut tonight on the 38th Season Premiere, guest hosted by Seth MacFarlane.It's about damn time that SNL got a genuine BBW cast member, the closest things we've had in the past were Melanie Hutsell and Casey Wilson, who while more full-figured than other female castmates, were hardly all that quote-unquote "fat"; although that may have been one of the factors got the undeniably attractive Casey Wilson fired. Here are some examples of Aidy's comedic skills on YouTube:

As you can see Aidy is a gifted comedic actress with a likeable presence, and so adorable and cuddly to boot! I'm fearing she may be underutilized and unceremoniously fired, and that her talents may be wasted on fat jokes and Adele impersonations. Still, while the quality of SNL has been taking yet another downturn in recent years, I'll definitely be tuning to watch Aidy Bryant and see how she fares.
