I feel like Che would just end up teaching the kid a bunch of bad words to call Colin. Colin and Scarlett: "Who taught you to say these awful things about Daddy?" Their kid: "Uncle Mikey!"

Man I miss Craig Ferguson. He could have back and forthed with Che about the water bit alone for like 10 hilarious minutes.

[@sarah-qz5oh]

craig ferguson could keep up banter with anyone truly miss his presence

[@terryjames9978]

He was okay but different

[@ThePumpkinToad]

I don't know much about Craig Ferguson, but I believe he would have handled it better than Fallon did. I thought the thing about the water was funny and relatable, but Jimmy reacted as though Che had said something about abortion or some other taboo topic that he wanted to immediately move away from.

[@sarah-qz5oh]

@@ThePumpkinToad jimmy does this a lot with race jokes, which is really weird. of the late night hosts he is definitely the most vanilla when it comes to jokes, but i guess that makes sense considering the show

[@ThePumpkinToad]

@@sarah-qz5oh I agree, vanilla is a good word for it. I've got nothing against Fallon , but I like my late night hosts to have some political edge. Like you said, though, it makes sense. That's why he has over three times the subscribers as Colbert

[@astecklesable]

michael che is grossly underrated

[@hannacook859]

No. He is rated. (As in not overrated nor underrated)

[@kawaiiafangirl]

I agree. As far as stand-up comedians go in SNL, I feel like Che should get more love than someone like Pete.

[@mekero4643]

@@kawaiiafangirl why though Pete is absolutely hilarious

[@kawaiiafangirl]

@@mekero4643 I thought he was funny when I first checked out his work. His early stand-up was pretty good for someone only a few years into the game and his first Weekend Update segment was great. I think he hasn't done much else after that. Most of the talk around him is about the women he dates and his mental health and is hardly about his comedy. It's just my opinion though.

[@debbyfronke3227]

[@HighOnFructose]

I don't understand this interview from Jimmy's perspective, Che keeps giving him all these comedic layups and he just keeps ignoring them and just moving on to his planned notecard questions 😕

[@heatherbraman3326]

@@donnacsuti4980 it depends on the how old the baby is though. We're not born right out of the womb being able to self regulate so to leave a baby for too long is only going to traumatize them. Once they're out of the newborn stage I think is when it's suggested to leave them be sometimes
