Sarah Sherman Says Her ‘SNL' Residual Checks Went To Gilda Radner's Estate In 'Crazy Coincidence'
Following her fourth season of Saturday Night Live, Sarah Sherman recently revealed a strange connection to one of the show's most beloved alums. The comedian recalled finding out that her SAG residual checks were going to the estate of Gilda Radner, who was a castmember on the NBC sketch comedy show from its inception in 1975 until departing after Season 5 in 1980. More from Deadline 'Saturday Night Live' Wraps Season 50 With No Cast Goodbyes In Finale As NBC Series Prepares For Departures 'SNL's Sarah Sherman Feels 'Terrible' About Offending Aimee Lou Wood: 'She's So Iconic' 2025 Premiere Dates For New & Returning Series On Broadcast, Cable & Streaming 'I got a giant envelope in the mail with a handwritten letter that was like, 'Hey, I'm Gilda Radner's brother,' she said on Vulture's Good One podcast. 'Weird thing happened where I've been receiving all of your residuals checks for the past few months. … By the way, you're really great on the show.'' Sherman added, 'And I started hysterically sobbing, obviously. Because I'm like, 'Okay, God's speaking to me right now.' The fact that my SAG residuals checks—shoutout, union—had been sent to Gilda Radner's estate?' She also recounted SNL creator Lorne Michaels' reaction to the mix-up, following what sounded like a 'schizophrenic' text. 'I was sobbing. I texted Lorne [and] I was like, 'Oh my God, my checks have been sent to Gilda Radner's estate! Isn't this like a crazy coincidence? I feel like this is like a miracle or like I feel like a spirit is talking,'' said Sherman, noting that Michaels simply texted back: 'That's sweet.' One of SNL's original 'Not Ready for Prime Time Players', Radner was known for her character Roseanne Rosannadanna, as well as her impressions of stars like Barbara Walters and Lucille Ball.

Sarah Sherman learned her 'SNL 'checks were being sent to Gilda Radner's estate: 'I started hysterically sobbing'
Sarah Sherman got a cosmic message from late Saturday Night Live alum Gilda Radner that cinched her place on the legendary sketch series — at least, that's how she sees it. During a recent appearance on Vulture's Good One podcast, the SNL cast member shared how a Screen Actors Guild mixup connected her and Radner, one of the show's most beloved alums who was featured from its 1975 premiere to 1980, before she died of ovarian cancer in 1989. "I got a giant envelope in the mail," Sherman recalled, "with a handwritten letter that was like, 'Hey, I'm Gilda Radner's brother. Weird thing happened where I've been receiving all of your residuals checks for the past few months.'" The mistake left Sherman overwhelmed. "I started, like, hysterically sobbing, obviously," she told host Jesse David Fox. "Because I'm like, 'Okay, God's speaking to me right now.' The fact that my SAG residuals checks had been sent to Gilda Radner's estate?" The experience spurred Sherman to text her boss, SNL creator Lorne Michaels, whom she described as using an "economy of words" in his messages. "I texted Lorne [and] I was like, 'Oh my God, my checks have been sent to Gilder Radner's estate! Isn't this like a crazy coincidence?'' she remembered. "'I feel like this is like a miracle or like I feel like this is a spirit is talking.'" (Which, upon reflection, she felt was a "schizophrenic" thing to text.) And, true to Michaels' famously concise nature, he responded, "That's sweet." Sherman has made a name for herself since joining SNL in season 47. While the surrealist comedian is known for her offbeat characters and ribbing Colin Jost at the "Weekend Update" desk, she landed in hot water in April when The White Lotus star Aimee Lou Wood called out the show for Sherman's parody of her character, Chelsea, sporting a set of very pronounced fake teeth. The pre-recorded parody primarily targeted President Donald Trump and his allies in the wake of tariffs upending the global economy. The sketch starred James Austin Johnson as the president, Mikey Day as Donald Trump Jr., Jon Hamm as Robert F. Kennedy Jr., and Chloe Fineman as Melania Trump. Sherman showed up as Wood's Chelsea, one of only a couple of actual White Lotus characters present in the sketch, along with Lizzo's portrayal of Natasha Rothwell's Belinda. Wood called the parody "mean" and "unfunny" on social media, positing that "there must be a cleverer, more nuanced" and "less cheap way" to poke fun. She later shared that there was no bad blood between her and Sherman, the latter of whom apologetically sent Wood flowers after the entire publicly addressed her controversial parody for the first time her during an April interview, telling Vanity Fair that she felt "terrible" for insulting the season 3 breakout. "I was excited to play her because she's so iconic, her character is so iconic, and I f---ing obviously never meant to hurt anyone's feelings," Sherman said. "Never in a million years did I get into comedy to make anyone upset. I feel terrible that anyone would feel bad." Radner was the first person hired on SNL's season 1 cast — known as the Not Ready for Prime Time Players — that also consisted of Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Jane Curtin, Garrett Morris, and Laraine Newman. She stayed for five seasons, playing characters like Emily Litella, Roseanne Roseannadanna, Lisa Loopner of "The Nerds," and Barbara Walters parody, Baba Wawa. Radner won an Emmy for her work on the show. After leaving SNL in a mass cast exodus in 1980, Radner made several movies with future husband Gene Wilder, including Hanky Panky, The Woman in Red, and Haunted Honeymoon. She was diagnosed with stage IV ovarian cancer in 1986 and underwent chemotherapy and radiation therapy treatment, which took a physical and emotional toll. After a brief period of remission, her cancer returned in 1988, detailing the painful journey in her memoir, It's Always Something. She died on May 20, 1989.

A look at some of the work being done in N.B. to prevent intimate partner violence
Over the last month and a half, Global News has brought you six stories shedding light on intimate partner violence in New Brunswick. We're wrapping up the series by showcasing what some are doing to prevent the abuse from happening. We first introduced Sarah Sherman, an intimate partner violence survivor, whose estranged husband's attack made headlines. She turned her own story of survival into advocacy and support for other survivors. 'It took me 55 years to find my voice and even though it doesn't always go over well and sometimes I feel judged and sometimes I am self-critical, I still think it is important,' she said.

Valerie McMurtry runs a foundation supporting children in Canada's welfare systems. She says there are often generational cycles of abuse. Story continues below advertisement One way her organization, the Children's Aid Foundation Canada, works to reduce this is by focusing on fathers who have already perpetrated intimate partner violence. 'Sometimes people have asked us why we're supporting resources for violent men. I really think that men need help being held accountable for their behaviours,' she said. 'You hear some pretty amazing stories about men who really had no idea how to be fathers, because they've come from their own generational trauma.' Similarly, White Ribbon is a global movement aimed at preventing intimate partner violence by changing narratives with men and boys. The co-chair of White Ribbon Fredericton was formerly the city's police chief and sat on the province's Domestic Violence Death Review Committee about a decade ago. 'If we can prevent it before it happens, that is so much better than having to deal with the aftermath,' Barry MacKnight said. For more on this story, watch the video above.
