Kate McKinnon reveals why she left 'SNL': 'All I ever wanted to do'

Kate McKinnon left "SNL" after a decade of starring on the comedy sketch show. The comedian revealed the decision to leave was "very, very hard" during a recent interview.

Kate McKinnon explained her decision to leave "Saturday Night Live" after a decade starring on the show. 

McKinnon revealed the decision wasn't easy and took a "very long time" during an interview last week on "Live with Kelly and Ryan."

"I thought about it for a very long time, and it was very, very hard," the comedian said.

"All I ever wanted to do in my whole life was be on ‘Saturday Night Live.’ So, I did, I loved it, I had the best decade, and then I was just like, my body was tired, and I felt like it was time."

The "Ghostbusters" star also revealed how she plans to spend her future Saturday nights.

"I don’t know what I will do. I don’t know that I can watch the show yet because it’s too emo because I miss everyone so much," McKinnon said during the interview.

"It’s my family. It’s too emo. So, I think I’m just going to tape ‘The Bachelorette’ and watch it."
