Dave Chappelle Made SNL Funny Again

Also featuring: Sarah Sherman and Chloe Fineman

Happy National Pie Day! Hi, I’m Geoff Plitt, and welcome to What You Need to Know, the brief, weekly newsletter where I share the best comedy videos I’ve seen all week. It will always be free, and you’re welcome to become a friend by following me on Twitter, Instagram, or TikTok, where I share my own jokes every week.

And now, the videos you came for:

1. Dave Chappelle hosted SNL last weekend, and it was the best I’ve seen the show in a while. His monologue about Donald Trump and the Los Angeles fires was outstanding! Enjoy:

2. Several of the SNL sketches felt like they were plucked for Chapelle’s Show. I loved this one where a family rushes to gather essential items after they receive an evacuation alert:

3. Sarah Sherman is hilarious. She did a character for Weekend Update where she played the original Nosferatu discussing the new Nosferatu film, and you’ve just gotta see it:

4. Finally, this John Mulaney SNL sketch is several weeks old, but I wanted to share it anyway. Superman does an interview with Lois Lane (Sarah Sherman) while getting interrupted by Lois’ roommate (Chloe Fineman):

Thanks for reading! Have a great weekend.
