Saturday Night Live has a new cast member--Season 34's new addition is longtime UCB Theater performer Bobby Moynihan. (Many had expected the pick to be a female, due to Amy Poehler's departure.) The Huffington Post reports that Moynihan worked on "The Line," which has SNL cast members involved (watch episodes here), and with others from the SNL troupe at UCB. Also noted is that "one of Moynihan's best-known talents within the UCB community is his repertoire of black impressions- which, if they make it on air, may revive some old complaints about SNL." (Last season the show ended up using Fred Armisen, who is of Caucasian and Asian descent, to play Barack Obama.)
