10 TV Shows That Were Disrupted By Behind-The-Scenes Feuds

2. Years Of Oddity - Saturday Night Live

Saturday Night Live is a show that's been on the air for over 40 years and is filled with people who do live entertainment for a living. Of course there were going to be backstage feuds. With a large ensemble cast and a new celebrity host every week, it was inevitable. And over the years, there have been some whoppers.

Back when the show was young, there was the legendary stand off between Chevy Chase and Bill Murray. Chevy left the show at its peak to pursue a film career, and when he came back to host for the first time since leaving, there was understandable a little bit of tension between him and his jilted ex-cast. The two actors came to blows backstage, in what Murray recalls as a very 'Don't touch my face!' kind of fight.

There was also no love lost between John Belushi and many of the female writers and performers. John didn't rate female comedians very highly, and several of the women who were on the show with him have accused the actor of sabotaging sketches that were created by female writers. Allegedly, he would give half-hearted performances in the read-through for any of their skits.

But perhaps most bizarrely, there was the odd relationship between Victoria Jackson and her fellow cast. Many of the people she worked with took exception to her strange voice and ditzy act, while Victoria responded by deciding that it was her mission as a Christian to help her castmates find Jesus. And as you could probably guess, her Bible audio books distributed as Christmas presents and repeated warnings about going to Hell did not go over particularly well with her fellow actors on the show.
