Who do you think was the funniest cast member of Saturday Night Live and who do you think was the most successfull after they left?  I think it was Adam Sandler in both categories, he can do no wrong.

Eddie Murphy in both categories.  Although, Hartman is close in funniest.

Mike Myers for both.  His success is as big as Eddie Murphy and he is a hell of a lot funnier.

Funniest: Eddie Murphy.  Very funny in Cop 1 & 2, 48 hrs, Coming to America, Eddie Murphy Raw, Distiguished Gentleman, etc...

Most Successful: Mike Myers.  $30 mil to do Austin Powers 3 would clinch the title.

Frank Sinancha "Ol Blue Eyes" character by Joe was his one and only funny character....his best skit was the classic Frank & Stevie Wonder song Ebony & Ivory!!!!!!!!  And he did have one funny movie playing a Mafia mammas boy.
