NEW YORK -- Kate McKinnon and Pete Davidson are among those departing from “Saturday Night Live," leaving the sketch institution without arguably its two most famous names after Saturday's 47th season finale.Aidy Bryant and Kyle Mooney will also leave the cast after the episode hosted by Natasha Lyonne.The departures represent one of the biggest cast shake-ups in years on a show that has seen unusual steadiness in recent seasons.McKinnon, 38, won two Emmys and was nominated for nine in her 10 seasons on the show, during which her impressions included Hillary Clinton, and former Attorney General Jeff Sessions. Her comic chops with characters like alien abductee Miss Rafferty frequently drove castmates and guest hosts to lose it live on air.McKinnon opened the show with an out-of-this-world skit, and said her final goodbyes on “Earth.”“I love ya, thanks for letting me stay awhile.

Kate McKinnon is one of several longtime cast members leaving, fans were anticipating some truly memorable sign-offs -- and they got it right off the bat with a special «Cold Open» sketch.In the final episode of the season, McKinnon appeared as her recurring character Colleen Rafferty, a woman who has been frequently abducted by aliens and then interrogated by government agents.Joined by Cecily Strong and host Natasha Lyonne as fellow abductees, the trio answer questions from two agents — played by the departing Aidy Bryant and longtime castmember Mikey Day. And, as fans have come to expect from Colleen Rafferty's tales of alien encounters, things got really dirty really fast.The «Close Encounters» series of sketches was made famous back in Season 41, when the sketch featured host Ryan Gosling, and McKinnon's flawless performance as Rafferty made him break down into fits of laughter throughout nearly the entire sketch.This time around, Colleen's tale was particularly vulgar, but ended on a sweet note when the agents informed the interviewees that the aliens are looking to take one of them permanently in exchange for some advanced technology.«Well, I can read the room.
