I can’t believe it has been almost 7 years since “Lazy Sunday,” the second digital short ever on SNL, was posted on YouTube and became the first viral video. Since then, over 100 digital shorts have been produced by Andy Samberg and his crew, and this season marks his last on the beloved Saturday night sketch show.
Last night on Saturday Night Live, a sequel to the video that started it all aired – “Lazy Sunday 2.”

Samberg isn’t the only cast member said to be leaving; Kristen Wiig and Jason Sudeikis are reportedly packing their bags as well. With successful film and television careers blossoming outside of SNL, it’s the same cycle that repeats itself time and time again.
But I think the real star they will be losing is Andy Samberg. His Digital Shorts, a weekly collaboration between himself and “Lonely Island” partners Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone, have seen well over 1 billion hits on YouTube. They are also one of the funniest parts of the show. Which begs the question – when Samberg leaves, are Digital Shorts leaving with him?
