The Bad Boys of SNL, also known as the Slap Pack, is a group of actors who often performed together on Saturday Night Live. The members of the group were in what is considered to be the second generation of the show's cast since Lorne Michaels returned as producer in 1985. Where the first generation was more prone to the use of a more subdued form of humor, the second was known for a wilder, more outrageous and fast-paced brand of comedy. There was a compilation episode released based on the group's most infamous moments, and they continue to appear in movies together to this day, with the exception of the now-deceased Chris Farley. Recently, many of these movies have been released under the Happy Madison label.
