Weekend Update: Pete Davidson & John Mulaney Review Clint Eastwood's The Mule - SNL

[@sockruhtease]

That part makes me so happy inside!

[@onestubbornway]

Yes - I love that John will pause to say something sincerely if it’s important, and then go back to being funny, instead of glossing over it and keeping everything a joke. He’s had several of these moments that I’ve seen

[@beberivera7011]

He seems like such a genuine person and it makes me happy that Pete has him as a friend.

[@broadwaymelody33]

It’s moments like that where I’m stunned that John thinks he wouldn’t be a good parent.

[@TS-qq7vr]

Then appreciated that he used a condom.

[@aiberlane3390]

I like how there's a certain sincerity behind the humor here. I feel like John probably joined in here because Pete was a little nervous doing this alone.

[@tejaswoman]

Fearless as Pete can be in his comedy, I had that same feeling.

[@MrAaronWomball]

Yeah it was exactly that. They’re best friends and John was an alcoholic in the past, so he had some experience of Pete’s world of depression. And he helped him back on his feet, and came on the show for him so Pete would feel more relaxed about being there. It’s a lovely story that seems to be inspiring a lot of people. It’s amazing what a good friend can go :)

I'm super glad to see Pete getting back out after that scare. You can tell John isn't joking when he looks at him, he's genuine.

John is such a naturally funny guy and I really like Pete. I don’t understand all the crap he gets. He’s troubled. But I got a mental illness too. It’s not easy but he’s able to laugh at himself. He seems like a sweet guy. He’s cute in a way too. I hope he keeps healing.

Yes, and they led the seated crowd to finally stand at the concert for "My Old School". Also, Pete thought Steely Dan was a comedian when he agreed to go.
