Marcello Hernández took us on a trip down memory lane this weekend with his Saturday Night Live skit that revived the iconic “Sábado Gigante!” Channeling Don Francisco, Hernández delivered comedy gold almost entirely in Spanish, with dancing, singing, and even the unforgettable El Chacal de la Trompeta making an appearance. For 53 years, “Sábado Gigante” was a Saturday night tradition for Latinx families across the U.S., known for its wild skits and over-the-top humor. Following the SNL episode, even Don Francisco himself gave a heartfelt shoutout to Marcello and SNL for keeping those memories alive. **Correction:** A photo of the late actor and comedian Gilbert Gottfried was mistakenly used while referencing Marcello’s father. #SabadoGigante #MarcelloHernandez #SNL #SaturdayNightLive #Cuban #Dominican #ElChacal #DonFrancisco #LatinxCulture #Fuera #Latinidad #Univision #LatinoHeritage #ThrowbackVibes #LatinxRepresentation #ElChacalDeLaTrompeta #LatinoNostalgia #HLOG
