Dana Carvey faced a challenging task when impersonating Joe Biden on “Saturday Night Live.”

Carvey explained, “I knew that he was compromised mentally. I mean, it was obvious. But it was a delicate thing in the comedy world.”

Guest Julie Bowen pointed out, “But it’s comedy!” a sentiment Carvey agreed with.
