Dave Chappelle Returning as Host of The Series ‘Saturday Night Live’

Dave Chappelle Returning as Host of The Series ‘Saturday Night Live’

Dave Chappelle will once again host “Saturday Night Live” as part of NBC’s midterm elections coverage. It has been nearly four years since the Emmy Award winning comedian last hosted the show in succession to Saoirse Ronan, but now he is returning to take over hosting duties ahead of next week’s midterm elections. It’s the late 90s and comedy is in a state of flux. Reality TV is on the horizon, but in the meantime you’ve got a bunch of great comedians waiting to make it big while they wait for their shot. Dave Chappelle is just one of these comedians and he’s got an idea that could change his fortunes: a sketch series on Comedy Central that pays homage to classic black sitcoms like “The Jeffersons” and “Good Times.” Chappelle’s sketch comedy series, “The Chappelle Show,” was critically acclaimed for having a unique hip-hop sensibility but was cancelled after one season due to controversy and the absence of a second season. Chappelle has since retreated to the comedy stage, but his main focus is comedy theory. Now, it looks like “The Chappelle Show” is back on the horizon.

What is the series ‘Saturday Night Live’ about? 

The series is a sketch comedy show that aired on NBC in 1975. It is one of the most successful and influential shows in the television history. The show’s skits and characters have had a huge influence on humour and pop culture all over the world. It was one of the first shows to feature an African American cast and it aired right after registering with America’s changing attitude towards race and stereotypes. The show has been honoured as one of comedy’s greatest shows ever to grace the small screen. “Saturday Night Live” casts a variety of big name celebrities in comedic sketches that are full of unexpected twists and turns making each episode a unique experience from beginning to end. The show is famous for its recurring characters and skits like the “Coneheads,” “Garth and Kat,” “The Church Lady,” “Wayne’s World,” “The Blue Brothers” and the ever-popular and controversial sketches that poke fun at politicians and U.S. government policies and politics.

Why should you watch this series? 

“Saturday Night Live” is a great show. It has something for everyone who enjoys a laugh or a good parody. The celebrities and cast members are all hilarious, making each skit more hilarious than the last. The show’s recurring characters and skits create an immediate familiarity with the audience, allowing us to watch the show not just once but over and over again because it never loses its appeal. Listening to the dialogue between sketches has become an art in itself as audiences have waited with baited breath for their favourite characters to make another appearance on the show.

Who is the creator of the series? 

Lorne Michaels is the creator of “Saturday Night Live.” In 1975 Michaels got NBC to agree to air his show, but he wanted his show to have a live audience. That is why the doors open in front of us and the live audience is right there on the other side. Michaels was also instrumental in the casting of his new show and has often been credited with making huge contributions to comedy in general.
