Here’s the complete list. The ones I HATE are in bold letters.
**Morwenna Banks **
Beth Cahill
Ellen Cleghorne
Jane Curtin
Joan Cusack
Rachel Dratch - Untalented and butt ugly as well.
Nora Dunn
Christine Ebersole
Siobhan Fallon
Janeane Garofalo
Ana Gasteyer
Mary Gross
Jan Hooks
Yvonne Hudson
Melanie Hutsell - Worse EVER!
Victoria Jackson
Laura Kightlinger
Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Gail Matthius
Laraine Newman
Cheri Oteri
Gilda Radner
Ann Risley
Maya Rudolph
Molly Shannon
Sarah Silverman
Pamela Stephenson
Julia Sweeney
**Danitra Vance **
Nancy Walls
I’m not a big fan of Victoria Jackson. She’s probably the worst. I actually quite like Ana Gasteyer…kind of surprised she’s on your list. Julia Sweeny is pretty annoying too.

Your list is not complete, Uniball. You left out at least two:
Robin Duke
Denny Dillon
…both of whom are pretty bad, but Denny Dillon was the hands down worst. Much much MUCH worse than Melanie Hutsell, who at the very least had a faintly amusing Jan Brady shtick going for her.
I feel certain you left out others from the brief Jean Doumanian era of the show and part of Dick Ebersole’s time, but those two are the only ones I can think of offhand.
I simply can’t stand Molly Shannon. All her characters seem so similar. Which wouldn’t be so bad, if they were actually funny.
Nora Dunn. Blechhh.
That’s what I got, with a little help from IMDB (no mention of Jean Doumanian, tho)

Molly Shannon ruins damn near everything she’s in. Sadly, she seems to be in it for the LONG haul.
I always hated Victoria Jackson, too. Was glad when she shipped out.
I like Victoria Jackson. She used to be hot IMHO (shes gotten fat now though). But I absolutely HATE Molly Shannon.
Molly Shannon is quite irritating. I didnt used to care for Julia Sweeny either, but after watching God said Ha! and blocking the whole Pat mishap… I dig her alot more.
I’m not familiar with each and every one of those, but of the ones I am familiar with, I’d have to say Victoria Jackson was the worst.
The “I’m a stupid bimbo” schtick was funny for exactly one nano second.
I used to really like Molly Shannon but must agree with others who have said that all her characters are alike. Everytime she does a new character, Mary Catherine Gallagher and the “I’m 50” character bleed into it way too much.
If Cheri Oteri is the cheerleader, that is the most useless act on TV.
Yep, that’s here. IMHO, any combination of Cheri/Will Ferrer/Chris Kattan is enough to make me sick.
I have to say that the only names I recognize on here are the original cast members plus Julia Louis-Dreyfuss and Janeane Garofalo (and these last two I don’t remember from the show but from their work afterwards), and I don’t really feel like I’ve missed out on that much entertainment.
Who the HELL used to do the irritating “Jan Brady”? All I remember is “Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!” and wanting to vomit repeatedly!
You know, even though I’ve liked her other work, I never liked Joan Cusak on SNL. She was just wrong for live sketch comedy. I feel pretty much the same about Laura Kightlinger and Sarah Silverman; they just didn’t work with the format.
Melaine Hutsell.
I could not stand Garret Morris as the token woman. She was completely unconvincing. In fact, I believe that Curtin fellow could have done a better job as an impersonator.
I always thought Mary Gross was lame. I saw her in some movies and didn’t like her in those either.
