“Thank God I’m not George Santos” said George Santos 😂

[@codiserville593]

Great line. good to remind ys

[@Flickawho]

I love the extended Weekend Updates. Could stay this long weekly and I don’t think anyone would be mad about it.

[@RyanRuark]

Weekend Update could spin out into its own show

[@egyptiansushi]

@@RyanRuark there are 11 episodes of the Weekend Update spinoff

[@TheWinterscoming]

The only thing I bother watching on SNL most nights

[@billpool1217]

I was going to suggest just making the show 80 minutes of Weekend Update. After the cold open, of course.

[@danicajohnson2664]

I just wish they would upload it immediately instead of waiting a few days!

[@OscarLangleySoryu]

God the makeup crew is GENIUS. That Dilbert... you literally couldn't do better.

[@chriscarter8593]

Just wish it had been funny. That bombed hard

[@micahbush5397]

​@@chriscarter8593 But then, the comic isn't really funny, it's more that people relate to it.

[@OscarLangleySoryu]

@@chriscarter8593 well, have you ever been a reader of Dilbert? It was very very funny to me but I've read a ton of the strip

Always gets an LOL from me, many times over….until Sarah Sherman’s unfunny segment.

[@valerie2827]

@J Ramsey Agreed 👍

[@lemon-xh9rw]

These guys have gotten more comfortable and okay with taking risks and it’s really payed off

[@calisongbird]

*paid

[@steveconn]

What risks? Laughing at each other's jokes and how lucky they are?

[@joshuapinkston9314]

it's called actual comedy when no one worries about offending someone. novel concept.

[@JakeKoenig]

🤣 What risks? 1) They do the jokes that SNL writes for them. They aren't risking anything themselves, especially because... 2) Parroting Regressive-Left narratives is the furthest thing from "taking a risk." Name anything in this video that goes against the status quo in America.

[@revdj]

@@JakeKoenig They are writers on the show.

[@silverXnoise]

Mikey and Punkie ignoring their assignment is the most wholesome and incredible funny thing I’ve seen in a long time. Pure joy.

i found that segment very enjoyable

[@valeriepark9444]

They are so adorable!

[@katietoole8345]

Usually I'm disappointed when Colin and Michael are interrupted by their "special guests," but Mikey and Punkie's bit was adorable, and I love Sarah roasting Colin.

[@sierra4766]

I loved Punky and Mikey, but I hate this Sarah bit. Idk why I just cannot get into it, and it isn't a love of Colin. 🤣🤣

[@jramsey9690]

@@sierra4766 She absolutely sucks. I cannot stand her and have really, really tried to like her, but she’s just bad and her humor is infantile and sometimes gross without being funny. It’s pitiful. Note Ché shaking his head at the end of the segment. I feel you, dude.

[@wiredforstereo]

​@@sierra4766 Yeah, she has replaced Kyle as my least favorite cast member.

[@nikkimiddlekillsday5161]

In her defense she DOES look like a Claire 😂

[@btrswtluvltr]

It was disgusting normalizing mis-naming/re-naming based on looks and super unacceptable. I'd expect Saturday Night Live to be better than normalizing mis-naming/re-naming people.

[@valerie2827]

@ROTMetro Calm down snowflake ❄️

[@btrswtluvltr]

@@valerie2827 Exactly the response I'd expect from someone cool with mis-naming. For those of us with trans friends who get hurt by it all the time it's just basic human compassion to not normalize it but whatever I guess it's totally cool with the Saturday Night Live crowd. I'm kinda shocked everyone's cool/casually approving it. Different mindset than I thought Saturday Night Live had but it's all good. Keep devaluing how another person identifies themself so you can get a laugh at (not with) them.

[@meghanphillips3495]

I totally thought is was going to be Cate Blanchett.

[@jeromethemechanic6871]

[@arthurdurham]

I think Collin is funnier. Che is great but he flubbs a lot of his jokes

[@batgurrl]

Weekend Update in it’s entirety is the best thing about Monday Mornings.

[@darnellfort7821]

this is racist

[@mao2233]

So nice to see Punkie get the spotlight. She makes me laugh so hard when she is in sketches. LOVE. HER. EYEROLLS! Much love to all of the current SNL cast, especially Punkie and James. And Colin and Michael. And Sarah and Chloe. And Marcello and Kenan. Okay, let's face it, they are all great and doing great jobs. Thank you all for lots of hearty laughs.

[@runway313]

Dilbert's jokes falling flat is so perfect for that unfunny strip

[@calisongbird]

It was supposed to be bad - it was part of the satire of commenting on how corny and unfunny the Dilbert cartoon is. It was meta.

[@felleroerdere3351]

@@calisongbird I think they might've tried to clip out the audience laughter, actually. That weird audio glitch after the second joke of laughter cutting in might've been a failed attempt to do so

[@canaisyoung3601]

Probably one of the few times where SNL being unfunny is intentional and germane to whatever they're mocking. And here's me thinking SNL wouldn't be good after Cecily Strong left. It's getting by okay, even if it's just Weekend Update pushing the envelope further.

[@batmangeek91]

@@felleroerdere3351 I thought the same thing! 😂

[@HopkinsIsNotAVictim]

​@@calisongbird SNL has been "meta" for like 20 years.

[@lemon-xh9rw]

I love how every episode has become joke swap

[@icebergmays]

The joke swap is literally the best part..

[@SonofTuscon99]

How can you tell?

[@TheDancerMacabre]

​@@SonofTuscon99 the little eye rolls they do after a particular self deprecating joke. There is a dress rehearsal for the most part to hit all the beats and to deliver it with a straight face and move on to the next joke. So when you see them corpse or an aside glance to the other person, its most likely that the other person wrote the joke for them

[@LindaC616]

​@broncosfan1852 for example, the "ok to be white" joke was surely written by Che

[@meghanphillips3495]

3:32 when Che says "that's what the card says." He's reacting to Jost swapping out the original joke.

[@aarushicrystalis7998]

the punkie and michael bit is so cute. ive fully had that conversation with friends, and it was adorable to see here

[@btrswtluvltr]

It was gross normalization of mis-naming/re-naming other humans based on your personal dehumanization of them to something other than who they are. It was really really gross. Mis-naming/re-naming is not cool and not funny.

[@valerie2827]

I love Punkie!! I'm glad they seem to be using her more often. She's hysterical 🤣

[@miggy44]

idk if it was a laugh track i just think the crowd mic was glitched

[@ellenburke7497]

[@burgermind802]

Why would a bad audio cut indicate a laugh track? That doesn't make any sense unless your already convinced of it.

[@sakuradaidouji6526]

anyone notice the sudden cut-in of laughter at 4:24 ? otherwise hilarious stuff as always~

[@chriskrentz2300]

Yeah that was really strange. I wonder if it was hard to hear his lines over the audience so the isolated his voice tracks during those parts? Either that or it's really poorly-added canned laughter

[@JoJo-ei6lc]

Somebody in sound department missed the cue.

[@TakingLosses]

Maybe someone in the audience cursed aloud and a mic picked it up? Or they were piping in laughter 😅

[@JohnnyJohn1]

The audio sounded weird at 5:30 too like either mic was cut or edited

[@xxxafterglow]

The Dilbert bit is so great. His lame office jokes that don't land closing with the race war bit is fantastic.

[@calisongbird]

A lot of other commenters here are not getting that the bit was intentionally bad as satire - poking fun at the lame/corny humor of the Dilbert comic strip.

[@jonathandutcher]

Did anyone else hear the laugh track go off in the Dilbert bit before the audience started laughing????? 🤣

[@ryano913]

Yeah Wtf I didn’t know it was a laugh track

[@turtlemusic1509]

Must be a problem with the upload, the video where just this bit was uploaded didn't have it and I'm pretty sure neither did the live broadcoast. So it's an error syncing the audio and video, no laugh track.

Thank you for putting this all together in one video. The "separate it into 4/5 YT videos with no idea which video goes first, second, third, etc." is a really poor way to upload what is one segment on the show.
