(via Deadline<\/a>)<\/p>\n For Nwodim, this post SNL project represents both a creative shift and a homecoming to her stand-up roots. She has been known for her sharp impressions and original characters during her seven seasons on Saturday Night Live.<\/p>\n In September, Nwodim shocked<\/a> fans by announcing her exit when she was expected to return for SNL Season 51. \u201cThe hardest part of a great party is knowing when to say goodnight,\u201d she wrote in an Instagram post<\/a>. \u201cBut after seven unforgettable seasons, I have decided to leave SNL. Week after week on that stage taught me more than I could have ever imagined, and I will carry those memories, and that laughter, with me always.\u201d<\/p>\n Originally reported by Devanshi Basu on <\/em>Mandatory.com<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n The post Former SNL Cast Member Joins Vir Das & Jerrod Carmichael in New Project<\/a> appeared first on Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nEgo Nwodim to perform alongside Vir Das, Jerrod Carmichael, and Sam Jay in The Comedy Series<\/h2>\n
