He will appear on the show this weekend, 15 months after surviving a deadly highway crash. The legendary comic and former cast member has recovered enough from his traumatic brain injury (suffered in an automobile accident that killed one of the passengers) to be able to be back on the stage, and he is rather amusing in this promo with Bobby Moynihan. Or, as he teases with one of his favorite jokes in the just-released trailer for the episode, he’s “gonna get everyone in this building pregnant”. “Did I used to work here?” Replying to his signature line, Moynihan let out a sigh and said, “That’s our Tracy”.

Tracy Morgan will host SNL this weekend with musical guest Demi Lovato. He joked about his speech therapy during the gigs.

The funnyman’s return to stand-up comes less than three weeks after he made a surprise appearance at the Emmy Awards, held at the Microsoft Theater, in Los Angeles to present the Outstanding Drama Series prize.

“I’m messing with you Bobby”, the star laughs.

As the Inquisitr reported, Tracy Morgan was involved in a limo accident while on the New Jersey Turnpike.

The New York-born actor tweeted his return to the stage, writing on October 12: ‘My first time on stage in 16 months at the #ComedyCellar! The shock live stand up performances took place in NYC at The Comedy Cellar & The Stand Up. He and Moynihan reflect on the 30 Rock actor’s past with the show, which Morgan more than remembers well, including the money Moynihan (or Horatio Sanz) owes him.
