His most recent work in TV comedy was his four-season run of “The Last O.G.,” which aired on TBS from 2018-2021.
He later teamed up with “SNL” castmate and writer Tina Fey on the Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning NBC sitcom “30 Rock,” which scored Morgan an Emmy Award for the character role Tracy Jordan, an impulsive movie star. In 1996, Morgan joined “Saturday Night Live” after television writer and film producer Lorne Michaels picked him over Stephen Colbert. Before landing major roles, he appeared on the sitcom “Martin” and the sketch comedy show “Uptown Comedy Club.” The 54-year-old Brooklyn, New York native began his career in stand-up comedy by performing at various clubs throughout New York City and made it onto the “Def Comedy Jam” stage, which helped launch the career of several stand-up comedians in the ’90s.
