Which years was he on "Saturday Night Live"? — Jim Aylward, via e-mail A : The late comedian joined the NBC staple in 1993 as both a writer and a performer. He stayed for five seasons, spending three-and-a-half of those as the anchor of the "Weekend Update" segment, but he was removed from that role in 1998. A then- NBC executive claimed it was because of ratings, but Macdonald said he believed it was due to jokes he made about O.J. Simpson, who was a close friend of the executive (who maintained that wasn't the reason). Macdonald and "SNL" parted company soon afterward. In October 1999, Macdon- ald returned to the show as a guest host, and he didn't hes- itate to opine in his opening monologue that the program had gotten "really bad" ... thus his receiving the call to come back to it, supposedly. He also was present for the 40th-anni- versary special in 2015, joining fellow "SNL" alumni Seth Mey- ers, Kevin Nealon and Colin Quinn to present a tribute to Chevy Chase. Q : What was the name of the sci-fi series Halle Berry did several years ago? — Adam Reiss, Buffa- lo, N.Y. A : That was "Extant," which CBS aired during the summers of 2014 and 2015. Oscar and Emmy winner Berry played an astronaut who came back to Earth pregnant ... a major mystery, since she was the only one aboard her 13-month mission in space, and also since she'd had fertility problems before. The show's second and last season also was notable for casting husband and wife Jef- frey Dean Morgan and Hilarie Burton, who have worked together again since on "The Walking Dead." Q : I heard that even though the new show "La Brea" is set in Los Angeles, it's being made in Australia. Is that true? — Daphne Ward, via e-mail A : It is. The pilot for the NBC series was filmed in Vancouver, and then, the coronavirus pandemic meant a long stretch of time between that and the start of work on weekly episodes. By then, it had been determined to move the production to Australia ... and co-star Jon Seda told us recently that though he was surprised, and though it would mean quite some time being separated from his family (with the time difference and quarantines ruling out back- and-forth trips), he decided to stick with the opportunity to do something different that the show is affording him.
