Dave Chappelle returns to SNL with a explosive monologue, pushing comedy boundaries and sparking intense conversations about fame, politics, and culture.

Even Los Angeles isn’t safe from Dave Chappelle’s comedy. The Emmy winner, 51, mocked the wildfire evacuations during his second skit hosting “Saturday Night Live” this weekend. In the sketch, Chappelle plays the dad of a family that receives an alert telling them they have to flee their home due to the blaze.

The first episode of 2025 was heavy on references to Los Angeles, with the fires leading Chappelle's monologue and the first skit centered on an evacuation.
