I love when Bobby called Colin “Seth” and was so deep into the character he didn’t even realize it

[@dylansickinger545]

Its also great because it was totally in-character for him to mess up like that so it totally fit

Kate and Cecily carried those seasons on their backs. Kate is the GOAT of SNL

Weekend Update has always been awesome, but the brotherly chemistry between Che and Jost feels like a joyous family reunion every time. And their back story just adds to it.

What backstory?

[@BattleStar_Yolettica]

I wish I had caught them when they performed at radio City Music Hall together

[@MeloniousThunk]

If everyone cancels their streaming services and cable on the same weekend it might affect the studios’ bottom line enough for them to negotiate in good faith. Their current strategy is to wait out the industry until we default on our mortgages. It’s really ugly. The larger public could help by writing the studios, supporting the strikes by canceling their services until the strikes are over.

I didn't know that, but it tracks. Have to admit, I groaned when I saw that he had joined the cast. I associated him with Goodburger, and of course, with Snick. After about a season, I had to give him his props. He lays it all out there, and often he saves the skit.
