It also made Ron Howard into a bankable film director.
Happy John Candy Day!

I can name Rick Moranis, John Candy and Catherine O'Hara. The rest are only vaguely familiar.

It's the main SCTV cast, well worth diving into YouTube for, IMO. Every bit as good as the original SNLers
Top- Rick Moranis, Dave Thomas, John Candy & Eugene Levy.
Bottom - Andrea Martin, Joe Flaherty & Catherine O'Hara.
I recognize Dave Thomas now but couldn't place him. I remember him from Grace Under Fire. Eugene Levy is unrecognizable vs. now.

True but with a big disclaimer. They had to operate so differently.
Have heard plenty of SCTV, Monty Python and even Kids in the Hall members talk about how insane it would be working on SNL. That the big difference between what they all did and what SNL did was that they had the luxury of writing then recording and then editing what they did.
Why SNL just has to put it out there live.

These were the two greatest bands of all-time. Right after the Beatles of course.
Five Neat Guys
The Queen Haters.
