Comedy fans are rejoicing this week after Saturday Night Live announced its first three hosts for the 41st season, including fan favorite Tracy Morgan.
Morgan has not performed since last June, when he was involved in a deadly car crash involving a Walmart truck. James "Jimmy Mack" McNair, one of Morgan's comedy writers, was killed in the car crash, and which left Morgan critically injured. Morgan then made no public appearances until this past June, when he made a tearful appearance on the "Today Show." In his interview, he said, "I love comedy, and I can't wait to get back to her, but right now, my goal is just to heal, and get better, because I'm not 100% yet. But when I'm ready to get back out there, you'll know."
Now Morgan has fully healed, because on October 17, he will once again grace the stage of Studio 8H and perform on SNL. It's a moment that I personally will be counting down the seconds to.
