| 5 | Beck came onto the show during its 39th season (2013-2014), when the show packed its cast with newbies to fill the void left behind by Creator/BillHader, Creator/FredArmisen, and Creator/JasonSudeikis. The show also hired Creator/KyleMooney, Beck's friend and comedy partner from their viral video sketch troupe Good Neighbor, but the videos the two put out didn't have the instant success that Creator/AndySamberg's "[[Music/TheLonelyIsland Lonely Island]]" videos did. |

| 7 | In spite of this, Beck Bennett and Kyle Mooney[[note]]both the first ''SNL'' male cast members to be born in the 1980s[[/note]] were picked to go on to the next season, while most of the new cast were let go[[note]]just John Milhiser, Noel Wells, and Brooks Wheelan. Michael Patrick O'Brien returned to being a writer for season 40, then left the show after that[[/note]]. As they stayed on the show, more of Beck and Kyle's sketches were featured and Beck made a name for himself with his celebrity impressions, such as UsefulNotes/VladimirPutin, Creator/NickOfferman, Mitch [=McConnell=], Creator/JavierBardem, Creator/GuillermoDelToro, Mike Pence, and Creator/JakeTapper. |
