But everybody's always been like, 'You'll know when you know and it'll be all right.'"He continued saying, "I personally think I should be done with that show because they make fun of me on it. ... I don't know whose team they're playing for, really -- if I'm the joke or I'm in on the joke."He further noted, "They think I'm f-king dumb. Like, I'm literally painted out to be like this big dumb idiot. Like, even all my sketches are just me being like, 'OK, sure.' ... I think everybody outgrows it and I think for what I could do on the show -- which is just barely anything and it's just 'Weekend Update' and I feel like I've done, like, 30 of those and I just feel like, yeah, I've done as much as I can over there but happy to be there as long as [creator] Lorne [Michaels] likes me."The 'Saturday Night Live' star further shared that he considers the series creator Lorne Michaels a father figure and he has treated Davidson with nothing but love.Us Weekly confirmed a few days later that the comedian skipped the 'Saturday Night Live' cast party.
