11 Oct
Summary
- Shane Gillis returned to SNL and accidentally swore.
- He played a character in a Dr. Seuss-inspired sketch.
- His expletive was called out by co-stars later.
During his recent hosting gig on Saturday Night Live, comedian Shane Gillis experienced a notable on-air blunder. While participating in a sketch inspired by the works of Dr. Seuss, Gillis, playing a character related to the Cat in the Hat, inadvertently used an expletive. The slip occurred during a scene where his character was resisting pressure to consume green eggs and ham.
His on-screen father, played by Mikey Day, confronted him about the language used later in the segment. Gillis acknowledged the mistake, and the show continued. The incident added a memorable, albeit unplanned, moment to his return to the iconic sketch comedy program.
