Kevin Nealon SNL: Comedienne Never Forgets About Former Flame And Co-Star, Jan Hooks; Nealon Will Terribly Miiss The SNL Alum!

Kevin Nealon's SNL gigs are made even more memorable as the actor relives memories he and the late Jan Hooks had on the show.

Kevin Nealon's SNL stints stood out as he shared the stage with former co-star, Hooks. Nealon and Hooks were also once an item.

People reported the SNL alum making these comments to remember Hooks. The magazine had a chance to talk to Nealon in the AOL Fall Programming Premiere Event that was held in Los Angeles:

"I was friends with her for a long time, and then we started dating for a while, and then we were on SNL together. I think the whole experience of going to New York to be on a show like SNL, I think about that a lot," 

"She was totally amazing as a sketch player. She so immersed herself in her characters, and her timing was amazing. She got it from some crazy stratosphere, and I was so attracted to that talent in her, and I don't think she ever knew how well respected and admired she was for her talent." 

Kevin Nealon's SNL stints with Jan Hooks brought lots of laughter on a regular basis.

Nealon further remembered:

"Just hard, long laughs at the weirdest, oddest things,"

"She had such a bent look on things, and she taught me about the whole world of kitschiness. I remember how much she loved watching the Princess Di wedding. It was like the Super Bowl for her." 

Nealon was particularly fond of one funny encounter he had with Hooks, as reported by People:

"She had a cat door in her apartment in Studio City."

"And a possum would come in every once in a while to eat out of the cat bowl. And she would let it, and it became a friend of hers. She called it Uncle Joe, because it was 'moving kinda slow.' " 

Jan Hooks passed away at 57 years old on Thursday.
