Morgan became a household name during his seven year run as a series regular on Saturday Night Live and has continued making leaps in his career with another seven year stint portraying the hilariously unpredictable actor Tracy Jordan on the Emmy\u00ae-nominated sitcom &#8220;30 Rock.&#8221; He returned to television in 2018 with &#8220;The Last O.G.&#8221; which he co-created, executive produced, and starred in for four seasons. Tracy has proven he is no stranger to stand-up comedy specials (&#8220;<em>Black and Blue<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Bona Fide<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Staying Alive<\/em>&#8220;) and is delighting audiences with his unique brand of comedy on his No Disrespect tour. Morgan has also been part of some of the most successful animated films in recent years, such as &#8220;<em>Spirited<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Scoob!<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Rio<\/em>,&#8221; &#8220;<em>Rio 2<\/em>,&#8221; and &#8220;G-Force.&#8221; Morgan has been nominated for two Emmy\u00ae Awards and two NAACP Image Awards.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Credits: Written and executive produced by Morgan; executive producer Rikki Hughes for Magic Lemonade; directed by Marcus Raboy.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two-time Emmy\u00ae-nominated actor and comedian Tracy Morgan (&#8220;30 Rock,&#8221; &#8220;The Last O.G.&#8220;) leaves it all on the stage in his first Max stand-up special taped live from the Wilbur Theater in Boston, Massachusetts.
