"i loved working at SNL, and most of all i loved the people,"
"i was there at a time when many things in the world started to seem futile, but working at 30 rock taught me the value in showing up anyway when people make it worthwhile."
"i'm grateful for every minute of my time there,"
"i learned about myself (bad with wigs). i learned about others (generous, vulnerable, hot). i learned that human error can be nothing but correct. i learned that comedy is mostly logistics and that it will usually fail until it doesn't, which is the besssst."
Bowen joined SNL in 2018 as a writer for Season 44, became a featured player the following year, and became a mainstay by Season 47. He announced his mid-eighth-season departure via a Dec. 20 Instagram post, expressing love for the show and its people and gratitude for his time there. He reflected on lessons learned about himself, others, and the logistics of comedy. He thanked coworkers, audiences, and hosts—singling out Ariana Grande—and praised Lorne Michaels for the opportunity and standards. He previously discussed leaving with Lorne, who encouraged him to pursue more opportunities, and his exit followed other recent cast departures.
