Sterling K Brown has reached a point in his career that Saturday Night Live came a knocking at his door. When he heard that knock, he did not say, “Who’s there?” Because that would be a really bad childish joke. Instead, he ran to it, flung it open and kissed the feet of the poor singing telegram guy that was there to give him the news.
In other words, his words, he said, “This is truly a dream come true. I’ve watched @nbcsnl since I was a baby. To finally get to host is one of the more surreal moments of my life, but it’s gonna be awesome. #SKBSNL.”
So mark your calendars for March 10th because that is when he is going to be hosting SNL. It should be interesting because this is the closest we have seen him do comedy since FX’s Starved and not many people laughed with that show besides me.
Seriously, I have never seen someone as excited to host the show as he is to do it. Which means he will nail it just like he does with every scene of American Crime Story: The People v OJ Simpson and This Is Us.
