SNL the Rebirth?

So every few years Lorne Michaels revamps SNL. This usually means he fires the writing staff and dumps a bunch of performers who never got a chance to show what they were made of ( Rob Riggle it seems has been dumped). This while sort of sad has lead to at least two rather fruitfull seasons. However the idea of SNL sans Tina Fey (pregnancy is a cancer) is rather scary to me.

Also there has been no attempt to curb the trend of teeny bopping hosts, in an attempt to court press. Ashley Simpson will jig across the SNL stage again this season.
