Props to the sound crew manning the “slurping on brains” button.

[@jspihlman]

She was putting them through their paces!!

[@keithjohnsonYT]

😎

[@brentperez4700]

Since I like a good pun, I would say props to the prob guy.

[@scewston420]

Yaaaa props for doing their job lol

The nervous laughter at Heidi’s part lmaooo 😭😭 she played her role so well everyone got flashbacks 💀

[@ballarddionna]

That lady in the audience is having the time of her life 😂😂

[@DOC231520002]

IKR? PLUS SHE LAUGHS EXACTLY LIKE MY LOUD ASS AUNTIE!

[@ASKTVOfficial]

"he was eventually subdued by a passenger with rock!" 😂😂😂😂😂

[@user-pu4bk7bf1g]

Yeah that was a good one too

[@darryl2542]

I laughed harder at that one than any other joke. My sense of humor is...simple.

[@ASKTVOfficial]

@@darryl2542 not at all, you must be a very subtle person

[@YNGKING01]

Che you killed on this episode, the Ray J joke, the Drake joke, the intervention joke all hilarious lol

[@benoitwaffle5439]

Don't forget, "I don't know you." 🤣😂🤣 With the confidence of a man who has had to say that before.🤣😂🤣

[@justanothergaming2086]

So some of the jokes he made had a positive reaction but the way he reacted was as if the jokes were "too edgy" and people reacted negatively. I think he thought those jokes were going to get a different reaction.

[@kkkanti-n]

get the tree n👨🏿. im 'mixed' btw

[@UncleJimmi_ID]

The Stormi Daniel's movie titles joke was also excellent

[@djfunkgut]

Sarah Sherman's priorities: 1. Be funny 2. Mercilessly dunk on Colin Jost by any means necessary.

[@Persiuskaneohh]

and make sound crew do more work

[@alec57]

She only manages to do one of those things and it's not the first one

Don't worry Che. We loved the title joke.

[@user-uh4xz2gn4u]

I think all his jokes are absolutely something else... so great... 😂

[@AlanTuringWannabe]

Heidi is the best at these characters

[@Snardbafulator]

Angel, Bailey Gismert, one half of the Instagram couple. Heidi does treading the thin edge of nervous breakdown like no one since Cecily Strong.

[@betyerpwet]

She is better than Cecily Strong especially with her voice cracking, it's very unique!

[@noscrubs-dm2hd]

"offered hush money by the jury." LMAO!

[@davesnothere420]

Sarah's appearances at the news desk are always funny as shit, she's fucking amazing

[@Chihweenie]

Also even bettter when she makes fun of Colin 😂

[@Mohmee88]

Heidi's fake leaving/chair bit made my week

[@TheGillhicks]

Please keep “Weekend Update” going all summer long. We’re going to need the laughs.

[@melindamckechnie7042]

Totally agree

[@canaisyoung3601]

I'm not sure if they can do that because of the Olympics, but who knows? They might have a two-episode half hour special that airs a few weeks before the premiere of their 50th season. They did it before for season 35 (2009-2010 season). And even then, it'll probably just be them catching up on any and all craziness that happened during the summer. If you were hoping for it to be a weekly thing from June to September, that's probably not going to happen.

[@Carlos-xz3vi]

Heidi Gardner is up there with the best SNL cast members of all time. She’s hilarious!

[@KittenFairy84]

That WAS a good joke, Michael. Don't let the audience get to you... I laughed my ass off 😂😂😂

[@squee599]

Yeah I've watched it 3 times now and it is flawless!

[@IrishCarney]

It was well written, but delivered with epic incompetence

[@batgurrl]

I have said it before and I will say it again, Weekend Update being posted in its entirety is the best watch to start Monday mornings. The comedy flows much more smoothly and this week was one of the most Hilarious in recent memory

[@DannyBPlays]

Stop saying it

The straight to tiktok out loud was great… too real

[@Alex-zi1nb]

He was on a peloton! In his living room!!!

[@DrLFV]

That was a GREAT joke. I rewound Che's joke three times, initially because I didn't catch it the first time. The other two times was just because it was THAT good. Well done

[@skuffel5405]

Sarah Sherman killed it!😂

[@itswhatever-er9bk]

Sara applied that lipstick so smooth! I was amazed

[@BrBill]

I never get tired of Colin playing into the joke after Che insults him.

[@hopskip1746]

Che got all the insane jokes 😂😂😂

[@jamiew1342]

Che is an absolute legend

[@austinl169]

I swear, Weekend Update's writers just get better and better every week! The crazier things get, the funnier they get! I also think Sarah Sherman is the perfect antagonist for Colin no matter what character she's playing, and that some of the jokes on Colin, he doesn't see before air time! :-)

Mailer Daemon... 😂

Colin starting the joke with the word 'Marvel' was a clear indication to me that I was going to laugh hard once he finishes telling the rest of it. Epic!

[@smileybone3010]

Heidi's Update characters are all some of the best things I've ever seen on the show. 80's Cocaine Wife and Girlfriend in Every Boxing Movie are both just insanely detailed, and the movie review teen who thinks Thanos is hot was killer too.

[@michaelrobinson996]

Lmao, that one ladies laugh 😂

Oh yeah - I've gotten email from that guy too!

[@Content-Lab616]

This is how I get all my news lmao

[@magzdilluh]

Lorne famously hates when people break, but to be fair, when these guys start laughing it's hard not to laugh as well

[@ijustgottasay1281]

I've been thinking about the number of times recently when SNL folks break (it hardly ever used to happen) and have come to the conclusion that reason for so many breaks now is cuz the writing this season is so damn laugh out loud funny that even the actors crack up.

[@erikweston209]

Heidi is on top her game here. What a badass!

[@MsJoiBella]

Lol that must be one of their mothers in the audience laughing so hard.

[@warneverchanges]

The MAILER-DAEMON joke is unusually technical for SNL

[@travisgessler6283]

Heidi just doing whatever she wants. Thats fine.

[@unloveableandre]

Mailer Damon is such a great (nerd) joke

[@WyvernYT]

For those of us who get it, yes. I hope it wasn't lost on too many people.

[@rmb6037]

I didn't get it... I know what mailer daemon is, but I don't understand how she would have misunderstood it as a confirmation, given that it usually tells you explicitly that your email has failed with an error code and everything. I guess she might have just seen her own message bounce back and misinterpreted it, but it didn't seem very ambiguously phrased. "In town, can I host?" doesn't seem easy to read as a confirmation of anything.

[@unloveableandre]

​@@rmb6037nobody reads error messages. Me, IT for 25 years. The error is clearly there. They still call us to explain. "User does not exist" is not enough

[@tw8464]

Sarah Sherman is comedy gold. Can see her making a career out of playing the hilarious disgusting yet bizarrely charming characters.

[@rampolful]

Watching from Zimbabwe, you guys are just good.

[@pyrex-fission]

[@theallmightydef]

This was a fantastic SNL season. They did a great job of turning it around because people were not feeling SNL anymore.
