Happy Birthday, Lorne Michaels! May your special day be live from New York (or at least filled with fewer technical difficulties)! You've given us decades of memorable sketches—from "More Cowbell" and Wayne's World to Celebrity Jeopardy!, ensuring laughter echoing through generations. Your mastery in casting legendary comedic voices has proven only slightly better than handling quirky comedians backstage.Recently you've continued delivering timely satire by expertly guiding SNL’s fresh talent and navigating pop-culture curveballs seamlessly week after crazy-news-cycle week. Enjoy celebrating another year surrounded by hilarious chaos; just remember—no matter how many birthdays pass—you’ll always control who stays on stage until commercial break!
