Chevy Was Banned for Life
When Chevy Chase bid adieu to the show at the dawn of season two, the charismatic Bill Murray stepped in to fill the void. However, when Chase decided to make a comeback years later, he returned not as a beloved cast member but as the show’s first host. Unfortunately, his re-entry was marked by a surprising and unpleasant change in demeanor, as he was discourteous and harsh to everyone around him.
Chevy Chase, the legendary comedian, once refused to share the stage with fellow cast member Jane Curtin. Despite this, he was invited back to host Saturday Night Live in 1997. His return was marked with controversy as he slapped Cheri Oteri playfully on the back of her head, relentlessly teased a female writer, and let loose a tirade on the rest of the crew. This tempestuous behavior has now earned him a lifetime ban from hosting.
