Andy Samberg Said That He "Physically And Emotionally" Fell Apart From The Grueling "SNL" Schedule

Ultimately, it was the grueling schedule at SNL that got Andy to leave. He said, "Physically, it was taking a heavy toll on me, and I got to a place where I hadn't slept in seven years, basically. We were writing stuff for the live show Tuesday night all night, the table read Wednesday, then being told, 'Now come up with a digital short,' so write all Thursday, all Thursday night, don’t sleep, get up, shoot Friday, edit all night Friday night and into Saturday, so it’s basically like four days a week you’re not sleeping, for seven years. So I just kinda fell apart physically.”
