Ty SNL for keeping the entire Weekend Update in ONE clip. Much appreciated. You do listen to your audience.

I can already see that Bowen Yang is having so much fun this season, and I am all for it! We need more of him

[ShiningEyeBrigade]

I love how Che reacts to audience groans: the louder the groan, the louder he laughs. And the giggles… love it.

The new guy (Michael Longfellow) had a very strong intro in this bit! I think he’s gonna be a keeper. Super funny. You can search for his stand up, too.

"Keep stompin biiitch, keep stompin"
I’m in TEARS 😂😂😂😂😂😂😭

That was really fun. And, thank you for posting the whole Weekend Update in one clip, so much nicer to see in one piece.

Seeing Bowen Yang fighting a man in a giant corn costume is one of the funniest things I ever saw in my life!

Keenan doesn’t do impressions. He’s Keenan pretending to be someone and that’s part of the joke and is hilarious.

[Kaibasgirl]

These two need their own nightly show doing the news. They are the most honest and informative out there...

Spotted lantern fly was fantastic! Way to go Bowen Yang! I felt like Michael Longfellow did a fantastic job! I like his style and rhythm to which he delivers his humor.

Thanks so very much for posting it as one piece., your ‘Monday tradition’ which you started last season. The comedy flows much more easily🥲

Thank you for showing the whole Weekend Update. And also thank you for utilizing closed captioning.

Enjoyed every moment. Longfellow was so natural and fun; the bug killed me!

[PaullyMiller]

Lantern Fly bit was everything I needed today.

[RSRye]

I’ve watched so many of Longfellow’s bits online and on his insta; I feel so proud to seem him do so well!

[MakerOfChase]

Aidy will be so proud of Bowen, he did right by her with that accent

[tessmoniques]

PLEASE keep Michael & Colin on Weekend Update.
Best part of the show to me for years!!

[coolboss]

Cant wait to see what these 2 come up with this year. There better be a joke swap this year! Weekend Update is always the highlight of each Saturday 😁

[mattpierard]

Longfellow has that Bill Hader / Jim Carrey vibe. Handsome, irreverent. Hope he can maintain it without cracking up, like Freddie Prinz. Curious how his dad reacted to this. Yang consistently creative and out there.

[kalindatchev]

The new guy Longfellow is awesome and Bowen and JAJ are already legends!
