Shane Gillis drops a live F-bomb on Saturday Night Live
Gillis stumbled over his lines within seconds, and the sketch only found its footing after an ad-lib.
Shane Gillis stumbled over his lines in the Green Eggs and Ham sketch and dropped a live F-bomb. To the reviewer, the slip looked like an honest mistake, though some viewers may suspect it was planned.
The sketch struggled until Mikey Day ad-libbed a line about the bad word. Gillis was hosting the show for the third time.
Gillis was hired in 2019 and fired a few days later. The firing followed clips of podcast jokes that many considered racist and homophobic.
