Baby, Don't Hurt Me

Stories and Scars from Saturday Night Live

De: Chris Kattan

Narrado por: Chris Kattan

You may know him as Mango, Mr. Peepers, the gibberish-spouting Suel Forrester, or one half of the head-bopping brothers in A Night at the Roxbury. Maybe you remember him as the forlorn Gothic kid Azrael Abyss, Gay Hitler, or the guitarist in the “More Cowbell” sketch. Whichever it is, Chris Kattan has earned a spot in the hearts of a generation of comedy fans.

Chris Kattan has defied comparison, expectations, and sometimes gravity with his inimitable style of physical comedy. By creating some of the most memorable Saturday Night Live characters, as well as his many roles in film and television, Kattan has remained one of the most fearless and versatile comedians in the world.

Not long after Chris was labeled one of the improv group Groundlings’ “must-see” performers in the company, he was cast on SNL - and within the first six weeks, Chris’ film career also took off.

Now, for the first time, Kattan opens up about eight seasons on SNL, performing alongside friends and future legends including Will Ferrell, Jimmy Fallon, and Tina Fey, and guest hosts from Charlize Theron to Tom Hanks to David Bowie. He also shares stories of his unusual childhood (involving a secluded mountain with zen monks) with Leonard Cohen and Alan Watts. Baby, Don’t Hurt Me offers an unprecedented look into Chris’ life, from his fascinating relationship with Lorne Michaels to a private Valentine’s Day dinner with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, an unforgettable flight with Beyoncé, and even breaking his neck on live television.

Baby, Don’t Hurt Me is a candid, revealing memoir from a timeless comedian and a window into the world of millennium-era SNL, from the rehearsals to the after-after parties, as narrated by your hilarious and inspiring friend - who just so happened to be there for all of it.

Listen & Be Amazed

Chris Kattan lays all of his cards on the table, and comes up Aces. A tale of success and defeat, and more self defeat. His narration gives a punctuated accent to a great story.

Always wondered…

I always wondered what had happened to Chris Kattan, as I loved him on SNL. Very disappointed that SNL didn’t step up and do right by him. ❤️

So great to understand where he’s been!

What a detailed and humbling perspective. He’s honest about his mistakes, open about betrayals without trashing people, and just an interesting storyteller. Excellent narration.

No forward

Enjoying this a lot so far. If there’s is a “forward by Seth Meyers”, I cannot find it. ;0(

Where did he go?

Insightful courageous account of what happened to Chris and why we don't see him anymore; told in funny enjoyable stories. Thank you Chris, we miss you and wish you well.
