“Now the past 12 months have quite literally changed my life in so many ways, both good and not-so-good. Some good: People finally started watching our showSchitt’s Creekand were fortunate enough to win nine Emmys this year. Beyond a dream come true,” Levy said.

The star added, “But in all seriousness, for all the good and not-so-good, somehow I have found myself here on this iconic stage, standing in front of all of you and trust me when I say this, it has only been good here atSNL.”

“Dad? All the way from Los Angeles?” Dan said as his proud dad replied: “Son! Wow look at you! No, I flew in to wish you luck tonight but because I traveled, I’m now in this isolation box.”
