I’ve been watching Saturday Night Live my whole life and one thing I love is when the actors, who most of the time are performing live, find something so funny that they break character.

Some of my favorites moment over the years have been when Rachel Dratch struggles to remain miserable during a “Debbie Downer” skit (wah wah); when a young Christina Applegate and castmember David Spade had to cover their faces to hide the laughter brought on by Chris Farley’s motivational speaker, Matt Foley (“…in a van down by the river!”); Will Ferrell and Jimmy Fallon in the Blue Oyster Cult “More Cowbell” sketch, and basically anything with Jimmy Fallon and Horatio Sanz acting against one another (I don’t think they ever kept their composure).

Now, Slackstory has put together a supercut of SNL actors breaking character. You can watch the four-minute video here below.
