We discuss Connor Storrie’s hosting debut on February 28, 2026. Although his performance was memorable, we unpack the first sketch, Mr. Fronzi for its ethnic stereotyping and insider humor. We also include an important counter perspective from one of Charisse’s students who loved the sketch. We also debate the controversial cut-for-time sketch Tourette’s, and discuss disability representation, audience responsibility, and comedic framing. Resources include film and television episodes that address stereotyping and discriminatory behavior as well as a flow chart from Charisse on when to embrace or avoid doing ethnic accents.
