| Saturday Night Live Season 27 : |
| Saturday Night Live aired its twenty-seventh season during the 2001-2002 television season on NBC. The season started on September 29 2001 and ended on May 18 2002 20 episodes were produced. Eighteen days before the season started the September 11 2001 attacks took place in New York. The season premiere went on as scheduled with a special cold open featuring Rudy Giuliani the Mayor of New York City at the time along with the firefighters and police officers of New York declaring that despite the terrorist attack New York City will run as normal and Saturday Night Live will go on as planned. Three weeks into the season the show faced another scare when anthrax was found in the GE Building. The scare caused most of the cast and crew as well as that week's guest host Drew Barrymore to evacuate the building. Before the start of the season Jerry Minor and Chris Parnell were both let go from the show. However luck was on Parnell's side as he was hired back to the show mid-season in the episode hosted by Jonny Moseley becoming the second cast member to be hired back to the show after being fired the first person being Jim Belushi in 1983. |
