Colin Jost's Awkward Interview with Lorne Michaels

[Zouie]

Colin has serious 'boy next door' vibes. He is so natural and down to earth. I wish him and Scarlett a happy life together.

[josie-nvft]

"So what do you think you will bring to this show?"

"RaZzMaTaZz"

[TogetherAtLast]

Hes the only SNL member who doesn't do the Lorne voice when telling a story about him

[rachlync]

They seem to have a genuine conversation, which is rare for Jimmy. I would LOVE to sit down with Colin for a dinner.

[soloseraphimheartsong]

"I love doing it with Che" Phrasing

[A.l.e.x.e.a]

22 seems so young to be a writer for SNL, how the hell did he swing that??

[suzphillips]

Handsome, smart, sense of humor, creative, polite, good team player, great job... total package!!!

[duckhouser]

Jimmy was actually normal for once. Impressive.

[mido]

COLIN JOST: "Try not to say something insane, like "Rasamataz" or "Go CANUCKS!'

[CoolMovieNerdPanda]

That Scarlett Johansson is one lucky lady.

Colin is such a cute grownup chipmunk 🐹

[joshyang]

Lmao, did he just low key throw shade on the Vancouver Canucks at 2:11? 😂

[sybotrybo]

i'm amazed as to how jimmy got his own show. at snl he was always just breaking and didn't seem talented in the sketches... but people love him. dunno why

[landry]

This man is engaged to ScarJo...that tells you everything you need to know about him. ❤

[LS-ellk]

Ditto, I <3 Dana Carvey too. And Jimmy & Colin.

[aranciadicapri]

Imagine if they bring out Leslie Jones 😏

[taylorhall]

ngl i love when snl folks come on jimmy's show

[KarlozVega]

Jimmy what's up with these random breathy whisper responses? Like you randomly whisper some words in ur answers

[stevensamuel]

2:12 Go Canucks!!! Insane or not, that's pretty cool

[calisongbird]

0:43 Colin’s wrong - SNL didn’t miss Scaramucci. This is the hilarious YouTube SNL clip of Bill Hader doing a Scaramucci sketch:
