How about adding Gilda Radner - Emily Litella, Baba Wawa, Roseanne Rosannadanna; John Lovitz - Master Thespian (ACTING!!); Lying Guy (yeah, that's the ticket); Jane Curtain - Weekend Update Newswoman or Prymaat Conehead or one of the First Ladies, Garrett Morris - Chico Esquella, translator for the hard of hearing, Martin Short - Ed Grimley; Steve Martin and Dan Aykroyd - the Festrunk Brothers (you could accept two wild and crazy guys) Or at least just Gilda! She had great recurring characters.
