If it hasn't already been done, it'd be great to have a list of times when only one cast member or performer didn't break (even if they were only a background character) while everyone else around them did. In addition to the ones briefly mentioned in the above video, it could include: 1. Cecily Strong in the "Close Encounter" sketch where Ryan Gosling infamously loses it, but so does everyone else, except Cecily. 2. Fred Armisen in "Debbie Downer" with Ben Affleck. Ben was laughing so hard, he could only squeak out his lines. Everyone was cracking up except Fred, who kept a straight face. 3. Molly Shannon in a Mary Katherine Gallagher Christmas skit with Rosie O'Donnell, Whitney Houston, and Penny Marshall. Rosie and Whitney got the giggles but Molly maintained a dead serious face. 4. Vanessa Bayer in the Price is Right-style skit where Kristen Wiig, Maya Rudolph, and Bill Hader got the giggles.
