SNL just got a little more sucky

yendiSNL has fired Casey Wilson and Michaela Watkins.
I'm pissed.
Wilson is the most underused talent on the show (see this for proof). When she's allowed to be funny, she can be great. Watkins was a breakout star last year, and given how prominent her characters have been, I figured she was about as safe as anyone.
Given the recent hiring of two replacements (same article), and since neither actress could possibly have been amongst the higher paid folks on the show, I'd damned well better read a story soon about Watkins and Wilson beating up Lorne Michaels's pet schnauzer or something. Otherwise, this is dumb and annoying.
