Recurring characters on SNL

{{Multiple issues|section=yes|{{overly detailed|date=September 2022}}{{BLP sources section|date=September 2022}} }}

• Mark Payne, a waiter who works at Pizzeria Uno. He wears a black do-rag and a black and blue button-down T-shirt featuring Sagara Sanosuke from the anime Rurouni Kenshin and always complains about inconsequential things around the pizzeria (the smell of pepper on the first sketch on the episode hosted by Michael Phelps; how sticky the bar counter is in the second sketch on the episode hosted by Tim McGraw). In the first sketch, Mark had a child that he left on a bus and did not realize it until the end of the sketch. The child was never mentioned in the second sketch.{{episode needed|date=October 2013}}
• Anthony Crispino, relays the second-hand news report on Weekend Update, where he always inaccurately reports on current events.WEB, Characters {{!, Anthony Crispino |url=http://www.snlarchives.net/Characters/?830 |website=SNL Archives |access-date=January 5, 2022 |archive-date=January 6, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220106031434weblink |url-status=live }}
• Vinny Vedecci Jr, the son of Bill Hader's Italian talk show host, Vinny Vedecci. Wears a black and white child's sailor suit.

• Liam, one of the kids in Gilly's (played by Kristen Wiig) elementary school class. It is often implied that he hates his stepfather.{{episode needed|date=October 2013}}

Supersoak established that Ass Dan was getting a proper burial), making Ass Dan 30 years old at the time of this death.

On the Bruno Mars episode in October 2012, it's revealed that Ass Dan has an identical twin brother named Butt Dave (also played by Bobby Moynihan).WEB, Characters {{!, Ass Dan |url=http://snlarchives.net/Characters/?832 |website=SNL Archives |access-date=January 5, 2022 |archive-date=January 6, 2022 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220106031436weblink |url-status=live }}
