Bush, Johnny Carson, Ross Perot and Regis Philbin. Carvey's work on "SNL" garnered him six Emmy Award nominations, including a 1993 victory for Outstanding Individual Performance in a Variety or Music Program.

In addition to "SNL," Carvey has appeared on "One of the Boys," "Blue Thunder," "The Larry Sanders Show," "Just Shoot Me," "The Fairly Odd Parents," and his self-titled 1996 series, "The Dana Carvey Show," which also featured fellow comedians Steve Carell and Stephen Colbert, and "SNL" writer Robert Smigel. On the big screen, Carvey starred in "Opportunity Knocks," "Wayne's World," "Wayne's World 2," "Clean Slate," "The Road to Wellville," "The Master of Disguise" and "Jack & Jill." He also contributed his voice to two upcoming animated features, "Hotel Transylvania 2" and "The Secret Life of Pets."
