I keep hearing how horrible SNL was for just about everyone who was on the show.
I hear that things got really bad after the first cast left and they started with a new producer and new cast.
But even the original cast members got into fights.
For example, Chevy Case got in a fight with Bill Murray.
Chevy Chase was such a jerk to Director Christoper Columbus, who at first directed National Lampoons Christmas Vacation. Chris Columbus eventually left the project and took Home Alone, turned it into a holiday classic,....and later directed the first two Harry Potter movies. He says it was the best decision he ever made. Chevy Case treated C.C. like a punk, and it seemed like Chevy wanted to get rid of him.
But this was normal for Chevy Chase. He has become sort of radioactive in the film industry. He really hasn't made a decent movie since Christmas Vacation.
But Chevy pretty much set the tone for the much of the history of SNL. Cast members were constantly back-biting and making fun of each other. Massive egos going wild....drugs....booze. No small wonder that John Belushi died of an overdose and Phil Hartman died in a murder suicide....and just recently Alec Baldwin shot his art director and assistant director.

How Chevy Chase's Dickish Behavior Turned HOME ALONE Into a Christmas Classic — GeekTyrant
If Chevy Chase wasn't such a jerk to director Chris Columbus , the 1990 Christmas movie Home Alone might not have become the beloved holiday classic we fondly look back on now. The film is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, and Chicago Magazine put together an oral histo
