Morris's tenure on ''Saturday Night Live'' is rather infamous, as his treatment on the show at the time (in which he did not get enough screentime or roles that weren't stereotypical) led a lot of people to believe that ''SNL'' doesn't treat its African-American cast members well; despite Creator/EddieMurphy becoming one of the show's breakout stars, and later black cast members like Creator/ChrisRock, Creator/TimMeadows, Creator/TracyMorgan, Creator/KenanThompson, Creator/MayaRudolph, Creator/JayPharoah, Creator/LeslieJones, Creator/SasheerZamata, Creator/ChrisRedd, and Creator/EgoNwodim getting just as much screentime as the white cast members, other cast members, such as Creator/DanitraVance, [[Creator/TheWayansFamily Damon Wayans]], and Creator/YvonneHudson sadly also fell into the same situation as Morris -- something that fueled Damon Wayans to [[StartMyOwn create his own sketch show]] in the 1990s akin to ''Saturday Night Live'', but catered more to African-American audiences: ''Series/InLivingColor''

Sadly, Danitra Vance, Damon Wayans, and Yvonne Hudson also fell into the same trap as Garrett Morris in not getting enough screentime or roles that weren't stereotypical -- something that feuled Damon Wayans to [[StartMyOwn create his own sketch show]] in the 1990s that was like ''Saturday Night Live'', but was catered more to African-American audiences. That sketch show: ''In Living Color''[[/note]]), ''Series/TheJamieFoxxShow'', and ''Series/TwoBrokeGirls''.
