CHERI OTERI exits ``Saturday Night Live'' Cheri Oteri has decided to leave ``Saturday Night Live'' after five years of playing sketch characters from Barbara Walters to Ross Perot, Judge Judy and the Cheerleader. Oteri was part of the ensemble in the Dimension hit ``Scary Movie,'' and recently got an Emmy nomination for guest starring on ``Just Shoot Me.'' Sources said she's had overtures from studios and networks to go the sitcom route for some time, so it's likely she'll be shopped for a deal right away.

"Meanwhile, questions surrounding the current cast loom as well. In a recent CNBC interview, "SNL" boss Lorne Michaels said, 'The contracts are up for a good many of the cast, and I think alot of them....are looking to move on.' The likely evacuees: Will Ferrell, Chris Kattan, Cheri Oteri, Colin Quinn, and Molly Shannon. The good news: their losses, assuming they happen, will affect the 2000-2001 season, and only indirectly this one."
