Appearing during the dedication ceremony to Shannon's new star on the Walk of Fame, the 58-year-old Ferrell spoke about how important Shannon's comedic capabilities were in securing SNL's, essentially "saving" the show from potential cancelation (via People magazine).
"The date is October 28, 1995," Ferrell said. "It is the fourth episode of the 1995-96 season of SNL. We are a brand new cast. It's only our fourth show. No one knows us, or if we're any good, or if anyone even likes the show anymore."
As longtime viewers are sure to remember, Mary Katherine Gallagher was Shannon's infamously off-beat teenager: a shy, accident-prone, cringe-inducing young woman with dreams of becoming a "superstar" in spite of her socially awkward personality.
"The character was funny, was real. It was dark in moments. It was an outsider who dreamed, which I think is what you bring to so much of your work," the actor continued, turning his attention to Shannon. "It was in that moment, I'll never forget, but it literally was a catalyst for us to continue on. And it was a catalyst for you, and you've gone on to have and continue to have the most amazing career and everything you do."
