Though Chase had never been friendly with most of the cast (a rivalry with John Belushi went all the way back to their work on "The National Lampoon Radio Hour", and by the time he left, he couldn't even get along with Lorne Michaels), Chase returned to host the show several times over the next two decades. Relations were often strained; the cast (whatever their own personal conflicts) would usually unite in opposition or disgust towards him, even hiding so that they would not have to share an elevator with him.
