More to the story.
Brian Fellow, played by Tracy Morgan, is the excitable host of Saturday Night Live's animal show Brian Fellow's Safari Planet. An announcer reminds viewers that he has no zoology training and only a sixth-grade education, and his interviews with visiting animal experts tend to fall apart when he takes offense at innocent remarks or drifts into imagined conversations with the animals. The character first appeared on Weekend Update in 1999 before getting his own show, and Morgan revived him when he hosted in 2015.
One great character.
A whole cast to discover.
