Father Guido Sarducci
is a fictional character made famous by comedian Don Novello. A chain-smoking
priest with tinted eyeglasses, Sarducci worked in the United States as gossip
columnist and rock critic for the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano
and, later, as Assistant Managing Editor for The Vatican Enquirer. |
| Novello created the Sarducci character
in the early '70s, with several notable TV appearances on the Smothers Brothers
Comedy Hour. Father Sarducci soon became widely recognized and loved
as a result of his many appearances on Saturday Night Live in the late 70s,
during which time Novello was also a writer for the show. |
| Most of Father Sarducci's appearances
on SNL were on Weekend Update. But he also was featured in some memorable
commercial parodies such as Bocce Ball My Way. |
