Key Points:
- CNN’s documentary "I’m Chevy Chase and You’re Not," premiering January 1, revisits controversial incidents involving comedian Chevy Chase, including a disputed episode with former SNL castmate Terry Sweeney.
- Chase denies making a homophobic AIDS joke toward Sweeney, who was SNL’s first openly gay cast member, and incorrectly claims Sweeney is deceased; Sweeney strongly refutes these statements.
- The documentary explores Chase’s troubled childhood as a factor in his difficult behavior, a characterization Sweeney dismisses sarcastically.
- Yvette Nicole Brown, Chase’s former Community co-star, indirectly addresses the documentary on Instagram, criticizing those who speak about her or her relationships without her consent or knowledge.
