Michael Longfellow is leaving "Saturday Night Live" after three seasons. His departure follows the exits of other cast members and writers before Season 51. Longfellow, known for his "Weekend Update" segments and stand-up comedy, joined the show in Season 48. While his exit is somewhat unexpected, given recent screen tests, the news comes as "SNL" prepares for its 51st season premiere on October 4th.
