At the Emmys, Kate McKinnon has been the most successful “Saturday Night Live” cast member by far. She has been nominated seven times for Best Comedy Supporting Actress for her various roles on the sketch comedy. Our odds say she’s a pretty safe bet for her eighth nomination this year. If we’re right, that will put her one step closer to the all-time record in her category.
The record is shared by two women: Loretta Swit (“M*A*S*H”) and Rhea Perlman (“Cheers”), both of whom were nominated 10 times. That’s a tough number to reach since there aren’t many shows that last a decade on the air, let alone retain that much goodwill with the television academy. The only other actress who has been nominated eight times is Megan Mullally (“Will and Grace”), who only got her eighth bid after her show had gone off the air and been revived.
