10. Robert Blake
In 1982, well before he was charged with murdering his wife, Robert Blake hosted SNL. The gig didn’t go well.
According to SNL writer David Sheffield, “Blake was not a fan of what the writers came up with for him during a read-through of a sketch called ‘Breezy Philosopher,’ about a rough and tumble biker-type who quoted Kierkegaard. Allegedly, Blake crumpled up his script, turned to writer-actor Gary Kroeger, and said, ‘I hope you got a tough a**hole pal, ‘cause you’re going to have to wipe your a** with that one.'”
Blake’s highly inappropriate tantrum earned him a lifetime ban from the show.
