[BUtterfield 8 38,289]

NBC's "Saturday Night Live" has added comedians Chloe Fineman, Shane Gillis and Bowen Yang as featured players for the upcoming 45th season.

Yang joined the sketch show's writing staff last season and appeared as North Korean leader Kim Jong Un when "Killing Eve" star Sandra Oh hosted in March. The NYU graduate's casting is also noteworthy as he's the only Asian American series regular in this cast.

Fineman is known for her work with improv company The Groundlings, a noted "SNL" training ground, and for the ace celebrity (and other) impressions that she posts on her social channels.

Glad they changed their mind on that Racist, Homophobic POS.

I'm so tired of Comedians thinking they get a pass to say Homophobic/Racist things just because "It's a joke"
