Dave Chappelle, who appeared on "Saturday Night Live" for the first time last night, told the audience he loves "The Walking Dead" and decided to re-enact the harrowing first episode using characters from "The Chappelle Show."

He brought back Tyrone Biggums, the Time Haters, Lil Jon and Clayton Bigsby.

"Kill us for what?" said Lil Jon.

"It's Trump's America now," said Clayton Bigsby, the white supremacist who is blind and doesn't know he's black.
