I can't be the only person who finds Pete Davidson's segments on Weekend Update pointless and one note.

Maybe it's an acquired taste. Or, I'm just getting old.

Both! haha


Davidson's got a shtick when it comes to his style. He's into self-depreciating humour.

Liev Schreiber is right, he’s not very funny. But the sketches were ok for the most part.

That last sketch was great with the two boys and the hose. It was even better to see everyone lose it except Schreiber.

He lost it totally in McKinnon' ghost sketch, when she mounted on top of him showing how to upper-deck a toilet. He was giggling loudly through clenched teeth. I mean, how could you not though, that was absolutely berserk. She's truly a wild animal.

Definitely one of her funniest characters. My favorite was the alien abduction skit they did with Ryan Gosling, who can't keep it together, lol. So funny.

Haha yeah that was great. I especially liked that one as it was the original of that bit.

The last few shows have been fantastic. I loved the letter writing in WW1. Dear James, Thank you for the Pocket Watch.

Not to question your liking of them, I did like them too; not sure I agree with hilarious though. These were haha/smirk/funny kinda... WW1 letters - a few chuckles when Henry had appeared, sure. To me, hilarious is not witty; but when you can't stop laughing out loud, when you have tears from laughing hard. Charlie's Grandparents - THAT was hilarious!

Those 3 and the netflix one i thought were very good

The goomah morning show was *this close* to being incredible, but something felt off

Feel claire foy was underutilized though, i think she could have been great but she seemed off to the side

I thought Claire Foy displayed real comedic chops.

I enjoy Leslie Jones on Weekend Update.

Quote:
"Who am I supposed to even date? A guy in his 60s, who possibly might die on top of me? Or date a guy in his 20s, so I'm a child molester now? I have to put out milk and cookies and a PlayStation to have sex? No! My sex days is over!"

"And no one in their 50s looks as good as you do," Jost finishes, but that's one compliment too far for his incredulous co-anchor, Michael Che.

Che mentions Halle Berry, who's 52. Jones leaps from her chair to attack, but Jost holds her back. Then Che throws out the name of Jennifer Lopez, who's just 50s-adjacent at 49. She gets angrier. He closes with Judge Judy, who's 76 and a force of nature herself.
