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

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

[@a.i.1823]

Everyone on SNL is crazy talented. But man, Cecilly, Kenan, Bobby, Che, Colin, Kate. Aidy and that entire generation will forever be my favorites.

[@taylorb2001]

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

All of Bowen Yang’s weekend update segments are THE BEST. Jafar, lantern fly, titanic ice berg

[@tabaxikhajit4541]

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.

[@carmensandiego7749]

What backstory?

[@BattleStar_Yolettica]

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

[@goonerizm]

USED to be awesome, THIS shit is extremely cheesy and corny asf. SNL is a fkn JOKE now, and not a funny one either.

[@goonerizm]

@@carmensandiego7749 There is no "back story", dude is just talkin out his ass cus Jost and Che are the only people he's ever known of on Weekend Update. Weekend Update was 1000 times better before Jost and Che, so was SNL as a whole.

Of all of Cecily’s characters, I miss Cathy Anne the most… JAJ’s British accent was spot on, even down to the subtle inflections. But the whole edit was filled with so much humor and passion so it’s as much a shout out to the writers as to the cast and the guests! Thank you!

[@PeacefulPariah]

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.

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.
