The shocking news about Tracy Morgan made me think of a couple of things. You just never know what could happen, such as horrible accidents. The other, thoughts about his time on SNL and other funny moments!

Tracy Morgan spent 8 season on "Saturday Night Live." My favorite of all his SNL skits, is the series "Brian Fellow's Safari Planet." What makes it great, Morgan's character is the last person who should be hosting an animal show on TV. He doesn't have any special training and actually gets really annoyed by the animals. The host is more concerned about the self-promotion of announcing his own name, "I'm Brian Fellow." All of this clears the path for the comedy train.

In one episode, A talking parrot visits Brian Fellow! The handler is so excited to share the trick of the bird saying, "I'm Brian Fellow." The real Brian is not amused by this! He tells the bird to leave, as the next guest of the show enters the room. Quickly, the host losing his attention span to the latest guest as his minds drifts to thoughts of that bird. Brian Fellows imagines the bird using his identity to purchase stuff over the phone. Great stuff!
