A leading voice of alternative comedy in the ’90s, Janeane Garofalo had a brief and unhappy stint as a cast member during the 1994-95 season. Her smart, cynical, and politically-charged humor often clashed with the show’s more frat-boy-centric tone at the time. She frequently voiced her frustrations with the material and left mid-season. Despite the poor fit, Garofalo’s career thrived. She was a star of The Ben Stiller Show, had a memorable role on The Larry Sanders Show, and starred in iconic ’90s films Reality Bites and The Truth About Cats & Dogs. She proved that her comedic voice was better suited for projects where she had more creative control.
