Celebrities Who Ruined Their Careers In A Matter of Seconds

Charles Rocket

We don’t like to talk about the 1980-81 season of Saturday Night Live. New producer Jean Doumanian was a train wreck with casting, and the sketches were painfully unfunny. A historic low was reached in the 11th episode of the season, when cast member Charles Rocket decided to let the F-word fly in the closing moments. The studio, no matter how desperate times may have been, was not pleased and promptly got Rocket off the show. SNL was in the process of purging all of its cast members anyways, so I suppose it was only a matter of time.
