Biography

Joe Piscopo's remarkable journey began when he was cast on the iconic Saturday Night Live (SNL) in 1980, as part of a comprehensive replacement of the original cast. Although his initial team of fellow players failed to live up to comedic expectations, Piscopo and Eddie Murphy proved to be the standout exceptions, effortlessly dominating the show for the subsequent three years.
