  She was consistently underrated in SNL

  
  
  Even after years of making us laugh with each appearance on SNL, her woeful Wikipedia page doesn't leave much of a lasting legacy for her.
  
  It lists three of her eight recurring characters as Pippa, one of the back-up singers on What Up With That?; Hu Jintao's translator at the G20 Summit meetings' and Nancy, one of the singing sisters on The Lawrence Welk Show.
  
  Those are three mostly silent stock roles that could have been played by any actor.
  
  For shame, person who wrote the entry.

  Her impressive impressions

  
  
  We're not talking about Kim Kardashian. Her five years at SNL left us with a real fun treasure trove of various impressions to enjoy.
  
  
  
  Some that didn't make it to air, only to surface in the aftermath.

  She deserves so much better than Mulaney

  
  
  The 13-episode waste pile of a season not only showed off the worst of hilarious writer John Mulaney, it also did awful by Nasim Pedrad.
  
  
  
  It gave her line after line of personality-less drek to spit onto a live studio audience, while shrugging in that sitcom way.
  
  She deserves better and if her show falls flat on its Mulaney, maybe we can re-think this list.
  
  But for now, we'll stay excited.
