Lorne Michaels

30 Rock is still on the air.

Lorne Michaels stands by his team players when others complain about the humorous skits used. Governor Paterson, Newt Gingrich can't seem to take a joke when over thirty years others could. Evans stalks Michaels trying to get into the business.

If you look at all the cast members over the years on "SNL", you'll see that certain archetypes were set with the original 1970's cast and copied again and again. The current cast seem to have the strongest similarities with the Belushi/Eddie Murphy personas living on.
