  "summary": "Shane Gillis accidentally used a profane word during a live broadcast of Saturday Night Live. The incident occurred during a Dr. Seuss-inspired sketch. Gillis was playing a character who was defending his father from questioning.\n\nThe sketch involved Gillis' character being pressured to try \"green eggs and ham\". According to Variety, Andrew Dismukes' character repeatedly asked Gillis' character to try the food.\n\nThis is not the first time a host has used profanity on SNL; Sam Rockwell used the same word nearly a decade ago, as reported by Consequence.",
