How fake dog food saved Eddie Murphy's job at SNL
.youtube[data-uri="www.vulture.com/_components/youtube/instances/ck5fhxsgr000x3g67b34v5ix0@published"].border-top:before { content: 'Watch'; } Saturday Night Live released the first episode of its new web series today titled Stories From the Show, which features interviews with former and present cast members reflecting on their time on the NBC series, and they’re starting big with Eddie Murphy.
Murphy recaps how head writer Michael O’Donoghue eventually “came in and fired everybody” from the show except him and Joe Piscopo, only because O’Donoghue was a fan of a “Weekend Update” bit Murphy did where he ate dog food — well, it looked like he ate dog food. “When O’Donoghue fired everybody, he came in and he said, ‘The only reason Murphy didn’t get fired is because he ate that dog food!’” Murphy says.
SNL isn’t back with new episodes until Adam Driver returns to the show to host on January 25, but between Murphy’s dog-food story and upcoming Stories From the Show episodes with Aidy Bryant and Will Ferrell, there’s plenty of SNL content to tide us over while we wait.
