“Saturday Night Live” co-stars Colin Jost and Michael Che are close friends on and off screen, so Ellen asked if Colin’s romantic relationship with Scarlett Johansson made Michael feel like a third wheel.

tty.a Colin and Michael are equals. They oversee the writing department and make decisions about what sketches are in the shows, who is cast as which character, etc

[@kaiasmith5404]

tty.a they have the highest writing role so they really get to control a lot of the skits. And they are the weekend update anchors who are only in one segment but the most well known segments. Like Jimmy Fallon was a weekend update anchor

From one guy trying to read another, Michael was uncomfortable being asked and naturally used his comic talent to deflect Ellen *three times*. She was trying to be fun and maybe genuinely help him out, but she was borderline trying to force a real name drop out of him. Personally, I think Michael is the lonely type who finds it hard to reach out and make connections. Maybe there's a lot of self-consciousness involved, some feelings of inadequacy. He said, on national TV, to his close friend Colin, "Maybe you have better things to do."
