I haven’t bothered much with SNL for years but I gotta say, I love Bowen Yang’s stuff. He is just fearless in the characters he will take a run at, and some of the oddest ones are the best, like the Chinese spy balloon and the Titanic iceberg.
Heidi Gardner just took her talent to another level of comedy. Well done. Bowen Yang does Gay comedy best. And thanks Weekend Update for keeping satire and parody alive and well in the US. Target us all...we need some humbling!
Alot of people probably didn't get her sketch, but yea, i knew some people like that. Always busy, always triple booked for meetings, but no real sense of what they actually did, aside from being triple booked for meetings :)
I love that there are more and more jokes that are based on the fact that Colin didn't write them. Seeing Colin squirm through jokes he didn't write just has some special little pizzaz to it. Live it!
Lol the funny thing is that he's very likely used to it by now, I think the squirm is a show. And he probably did write some, I feel like he's the king of economic punchlines, whereas Che is more of a narrative writer, you can see in his stand up how relaxed he is during the set up, a lot of comics rush thru this part, its hard to pace. I think he writes dialogue and Jost is the "closer," it's just that his persona is perfect for this set up. Just a guess tho.
@@standdownrobots_ihaveoldglory Wow, Maybe you should be Comic Nerd? Nice analysis.They are fun to watch. Knowing the duo are also close friends gives a feel-good vibe as well. (Didn't Jost recommend Che for an interview? I think that's how this magic started.)
Weekend Update in it’s entirety is always a great start to a Monday Morning. Funniest part of SNL - Bowen Yang, stole the segment for me, time to sashay away. Loved the shine box quip.
@atg13. Actually, it was hilarious. Why do you think it was horrible? Did it make you uncomfortable or uneasy? If so, you probably shouldn't watch SNL.
@@MarcosElMalo2 Ron DUH! I love it, but I hope he won't be popular long enough for it to catch. Just long enough to steal votes from the orange insurrectionist.
This update was glourious from Jafar to Michael calmly saying "good", but I might have gotten the best laugh on the Vogue cover. "Beating the previous record of 29" really had me!
I think Bowen has reached a new performance height as Jafar. Heidi's new character Crystal is amazing - I feel like she's taken that Kristen Wiig energy and warped it into something new, strange and fabulous. Really, really well done!
Yup. Totally agree. Bowen Yang has already impressed me; I expect nothing less than perfection from him. But this to me, seems to be Heidi's 'Magnus Opus'. I totally see the Kirstin Wiig commonality in the sense that she has found a unique 'style' that is totally unbridled yet still very aware of timing and intensity. I'm also a bit drunk.
YES, I just paused my DVR to come here in hopes of seeing others praise Heidi's character. _Tooooo legit; I know too_ many people like this. 🤣🤦🏽♀ (As Patrick Teahan LICSW calls them: "Rushing Nowhere" types.🤯) I _love_ Heidi's characters...this now tops my former fave- "Angel: Every 🥊gf...". _"I'm taking the kids to my sistuh's."_ 😂
I am stunned....'Chrystal' is amazing. I wasn't even paying attention to 'her, perse. It was the acting. It was perfect. Not once did she lose focus without making it look as if she was working. There were so many pauses in her lines but none of them felt empty; she filled them all.That was amazing
I have got to save this one. The ending skit with the "Coworker ..." is sooo fun! I don't know how they could write it out and plan it. I bet they kept adding stuff and taking stuff out and putting back in. And going nuts! And then to rehearsals! I bet they gave up! And whatever happens ... Happens! And it did! Heidi had everything moving. Eyes, mouth, head, face, hips and that zany attitude working some type of script. And she wasn't and couldn't stare at no cue cards! I gotta mark this and watch it daily, because I wanna catch every funny piece. U go Heidi!
Still my favorites part of SNL, these two. And so glad the full Weekend Updates are being uploaded as a single video. I will say, I’m feeling called out because I have that exact same water bottle. I DO WORK!
A lot of people have that waterbottle. That's why it resonates with you; it is a relatable prop for an office worker skit. And let me tell you: I hate that waterbottle. I associate it with people who have their sh it together and are very organised. I am the opposite of organised. If I try to be a waterbottle person, it only highlights my inadequacies: I would forget to bring it with me and end up drinking from the machine, feeling like a failure and exposed as a fraud.
Wow! Crystal works remotely in the weeds! Her team always on her back? Clearly, she needs a magnifying glass... Eats Kale salad csar phone but doesn't have time to talk... Ann Taylor work clothes as Che's Assistant! 😮😢😂
Omg you are so right. Makes it even better, altho our sweet baby angel norm doesn't want me tearing up, but I bet he'd love for us to hear his voice in the most tasteless punchlines lol...
I honestly don't find it newsworthy that a woman went on 24 dates in 20 countries. An average looking American female high school teacher could do that in a summer vacation with a little bit of planning and elbow grease.
😂😂😂 Omg I remember the last time I was on AO3 looking at random gay fanfics, I was chuckling because there was a BDSM, noncon, and NSFW Disney fanfic with the pairing between Jafar and Alladin 😅🤣🤣🤣... The premise was so hilarious that I didn't dare to read it because I knew it was supposed to be a dark/angst fic but I would have been rolling around laughing the entire time 😅
RUclips comments every single week: We love the entire Weekend Update in one segment! Please post it like this first instead of broken up! SNL on RUclips every single week: Here's four individual segments, followed by one segment a day later
Seeing as how her performance was live & unedited, we’d say Heidi was Lucy Ball, Carol Burnett, Melissa McCarthy & M.T. Moore perfect! That’s a rare phenomenon! Great fun!
Between Jafar, Crystal and the ‘Last Supper’ cold open, this is one of the funniest episodes of SNL in a long while. After the recent exodus of talent, good to see the newer guys stepping up and killing it.
Omg they finally uploaded the whole but in one video!!! Thank YOU! This week was 🔥🔥🔥Bowen’s Jafar was amazing! I don’t know why I thought I could sip coffee watching this too funny😂😂😂
Michael Che is such a great straight man. In comedy, the Straight Man, questions the joking more seriously than the Joker. This team is great with balance.
I don't know if anyone is reading this but please bring Rachel Bloom as a host one day. She's created and starred in one of the most brilliant shows of our time, has wonderful comedic talent, she would add too much to this show even with one episode. I really would like to see her.

Bowen looked like he was having so much fun playing Jafar, such a wonderful performance!
Yeah. And you have to give it up to him. It takes a lot of guts to try something like that.
Better than the Jafar from the live action version
I haven’t bothered much with SNL for years but I gotta say, I love Bowen Yang’s stuff. He is just fearless in the characters he will take a run at, and some of the oddest ones are the best, like the Chinese spy balloon and the Titanic iceberg.
With regard to the eyelashes and the Snuffleupagus's, shouldn't the plural be Snuffleupagi?
@@oracleofdelphi4533 whoa, keep it PG in the comments
Wow. Bowen's Jafar was BRILLIANT. The voice. The delivery. The expressions. "The Boy". So perfect!
And as always, I love Colin and Michael together.
Michael’s delivery of “Good” for the youtube prank joke was absolutely golden
That was great
Relatable.
Time stamp please
@@YourMomSaysHi_Jinx 10:56
YES! Talk about a joke that just gets funnier the longer you think about it!
That one laugh after Michael said "not the way I do it" lmaooooo
His smile there is killing me 😂
She returns after the sex traffic joke and I swear the crowd starts laughing at her laugh.
And he followed it up with "Am I right Colin?" That made me start laughing all over again.
7:34
Is it just me, or does that sound like Sarah Sherman?
I’ve laughed out loud so many times at this segment, and Bowen Yang KILLED IT as Jafar!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Bowen is such a phenomenal addition to SNL , he always knocks it out of the park.
Nah!!!
He is the only one on there that i don't like!
Bowen and Heidi are both so expressive i forsee them coming up with some recurring skit duo characters that will be epic
I love Bowen and Heidi too! They’re so talented!
I would love to see an entire movie about that busy frantic employee!!!
Heidi Gardner just took her talent to another level of comedy. Well done. Bowen Yang does Gay comedy best. And thanks Weekend Update for keeping satire and parody alive and well in the US. Target us all...we need some humbling!

i dont think he ever wrote all the jokes, they have a writing staff and che and just head the whole writing team

Bowen’s Jafar is on point 😂😂😂😂
And informative! I did not know Ron Duh had a gay wedding at Disney World.
Bowen has been one of the best casting choices in decades, he's just so perfect.
Yeah he nailed it. Voice was spot on.
@@MarcosElMalo2 Ron DUH! I love it, but I hope he won't be popular long enough for it to catch. Just long enough to steal votes from the orange insurrectionist.
This needs to be a recurring character. I think he’s the best performer on the show since Kate left.
This update was glourious from Jafar to Michael calmly saying "good", but I might have gotten the best laugh on the Vogue cover. "Beating the previous record of 29" really had me!
I just love Bowen Yang. That bit was so funny, I played it over and over like a good song laughing just as hard every time.
"Mulan just had top surgery. Congrats to them!" Love it !!
how I yelled out loud fr tho lmao!
Bowen's delivery was fantastic. Can we also give a shout out to SNL's costume department? Wow!
I think Bowen has reached a new performance height as Jafar. Heidi's new character Crystal is amazing - I feel like she's taken that Kristen Wiig energy and warped it into something new, strange and fabulous. Really, really well done!

There's a Crystal on every nursing unit 😂

"Miss DeSanté" I love it!!!
Love this cast. They are all having their moments to shine.
Heidi's busy co-worker was so perfect. She needs to bring it back, it was so real 😂
Colin: "Where do you work?"
IN THE WEEDS
oh man that was too real hahahhaa
Bowen's best yet. And that's saying A LOT. He just keeps getting better. "I don't know what THAT is, but it ain't straight." Dyin here.
Tina Turner was on the cover of Vogue at 73, but that "previous record of 29" was still hella funny. 😂
"Yeah, it was called England." Thank you for being real and telling it like it is.

@@oracleofdelphi4533 Yes absolutely but for some reason that feels a little racist XD
Holy crap Heidi!!!! I cant stop laughing!!! BRAVO! So forking funny!!!
Bowen Yang and James Austin Johnson are the best additions to the cast in a decade. That Trump cold open and Jafar had me cackling.
I agree but EGO?!?!? She’s bad also
Agreed 100%!!!
Heidi is the best one on snl! She can do it all!!!!! She is sooooo funny!!!! Love her!!!
Wow! Crystal works remotely in the weeds! Her team always on her back? Clearly, she needs a magnifying glass... Eats Kale salad csar phone but doesn't have time to talk... Ann Taylor work clothes as Che's Assistant! 😮😢😂
The sex trafficing joke had big Norm vibes and I'm here for it.
Omg you are so right. Makes it even better, altho our sweet baby angel norm doesn't want me tearing up, but I bet he'd love for us to hear his voice in the most tasteless punchlines lol...
About the only solid laugh the entire show--everything else on update or the rest of the show was mid at best
I honestly don't find it newsworthy that a woman went on 24 dates in 20 countries. An average looking American female high school teacher could do that in a summer vacation with a little bit of planning and elbow grease.
I had to pause so many times to hold in laughter at work. This was a golden segment
Everybody was in their element on this one. Solid work all around.
I almost spit out my drink when he said “I’ve had it up to here!”
😂😂😂 Omg I remember the last time I was on AO3 looking at random gay fanfics, I was chuckling because there was a BDSM, noncon, and NSFW Disney fanfic with the pairing between Jafar and Alladin 😅🤣🤣🤣... The premise was so hilarious that I didn't dare to read it because I knew it was supposed to be a dark/angst fic but I would have been rolling around laughing the entire time 😅
What this tells me is that Bowen Yang understands Jafar much better than the guy who played him live action
The fact that he brought that costume from home might have been a clue
@@PhillipTheBrandon costume? That's his bathrobe.
So glad to see Bowen Yang getting more screen time this season. he's so funny!
That one woman in the crowd’s laugh though! 😂😂😂 She got me!
I love Colin Jost still lowkey being traumatized from being ignored from last time, he literally braced himself
I could watch a 15 minute segment of Che’s office assistant, Crystal. 🤣🤣🤣
The 3 of them were hilarious. 😂 Wish the news was really this entertaining lol. Was a really good show. Loved seeing Molly back.

Thanks Punkie - I was bent over, having to rewind it because the jokes and delivery kept coming... The whole news skit was funny as hell!
Bowen's Jafar killed it 👏👏
More Jafar! That was fantastic 😂😂
Bowen's Jafar was his best bit since jointing the cast HYSTERICAL!!
Heidi killed this. That’s an Old school style character.
Seeing as how her performance was live & unedited, we’d say Heidi was Lucy Ball, Carol Burnett, Melissa McCarthy & M.T. Moore perfect! That’s a rare phenomenon! Great fun!
Now I wanna see Bowen as Jafar 😂😂😂
Hahahaha oh I have been around WAY too many of Heidi’s “always busy” worker. And they are EXACTLY that ridiculous LOL 😂
This was an extremely solid WU ep I'm gonna need to watch Bowen twice though that was incredible
Bowen Jafar Yang calling Ron DeSantis "THE BOY" and "Swamp Rat" was the highlight of this EXCELLENT Weekend Update for me!
Bowen Yang deserves all of the awards for this performance.
That was so hilarious 😂 throwing things ...yes 🤣
Probably the best episode ever! Love Jafar so much.
We’ve all had that exact same coworker, she killed that
There was a co-worker who would come over and spend 40 minutes telling you how swamped he was.
Nothing will ever top the Titanic Iceberg but Jafar is a close second 😂
that OJ joke was priceless!
I am that coworker. No one understands what I do but I am constantly swamped with work
Heidi as the Co-Worker = This Casts Drunk Uncle... and it's FANTASTIC :)
Heidi has never once whiffed on Weekend Update. She has an amazing streak
Bowen Yang is incredible!😂😂😂
Bowen had the Jafar voice PERFECT!
Mondays are for full Weekend Update uploads!
Why does Bowen Yang not have his own show
Bowen and Punkie were funny; Heidi had me in tears.
Bowen's delivery of Jafar slayed
Bowen is a great actor.
Between Jafar, Crystal and the ‘Last Supper’ cold open, this is one of the funniest episodes of SNL in a long while. After the recent exodus of talent, good to see the newer guys stepping up and killing it.
My jaw dropped during bowmen’s segment- can this get an Emmy or something?! Amaaaazinggg
Omg they finally uploaded the whole but in one video!!! Thank YOU! This week was 🔥🔥🔥Bowen’s Jafar was amazing! I don’t know why I thought I could sip coffee watching this too funny😂😂😂

Please make Jafar a regular character. Bowen is excellent!
Heidi's coworker sketch is so relateable. The workers that makes the most noise and complaints usually yield the least. LOL
Outstanding Jafar performance
Great writing this week for the weekend update.
Punkie hilarious and charming as always
Punkie as Angel Reese had big Kenan as Big Papi energy
Bowen is what keeps me watching SNL every week!
O.M.G so darn funny, Bowen nailed Ron good
Just give Bowen an Emmy, c'mon!
Great segment, and Bowen was perfect!
since the captioning failed, jafar's "final form is a yoked [buff] genie with gorgeous nails and a high micropony."
Heidi Gardner never breaks and I love her for it
Bowen Punkie and Heidi 😂😂😂
Weekend Update literally cures my depression for a little 😂😂
Bowen, Punkie, Heidi killing it as those characters!
Bowen nailed that shit ❤
Bravooooooo🫰🫰🫰🫰🫰the whole segment as usual is great. Jafar took the cake honey.
Me taking a drink..." In the weeds"..... that drink was a mistake. 😂😂😂
Bowen is one of my favorite actors on SNL. He is so versatile, talented and hilarious.
Punkie had me 😂😂😂 with the lashes and ‘purrr’
Jafar everyone!!M 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Punkie is a perfect Angel Reese. That bit was SO funny
love these in a solid block!! THANK YOU SNL! !
