I'm crossing my fingers for Jost and Che's exit. Hoping for Longfellow to take over Update.

 

Heidi’s been expressing sketch fatigue of late and has already had 3/2.5 seasons without Kate, Aidy, and Cecily to run the gauntlet as the go-to female performer during her 8 year run.

I’m not sure how much more she can grow and/or mold the show with Jost/Che likely leaving since they are strictly Weekend Update and haven’t been head writers since season 47.

But I’d be happy if she ends up sticking around. She’s my personal MVP.

 

Ego seems the most likely to return of the three cast members hitting 7/8 years. Ego does seem like she could still grow since she didn’t hit her stride as quickly as Heidi did, and she could lead the next generation alongside Kenan, Dismukes, Squirm, and JAJ, if the big four of the old guard (Kenan excluded) do leave. Between those five, Marcello, and Longfellow, that‘a a very solid base to build upon for a new era.

Chloe’s screen time has been lacking and she seems primed to breakout elsewhere. Bowen has graduated to leading and supporting film roles. It’s a toss up on how much of a commitment he wants to make to SNL and his near guaranteed yearly Emmy nominations vs building his own career elsewhere. If he stays that’s an even easier transition for the show to make.

Not sure if Devon Walker will make Lorne’s cut for 51. He didn’t seem to make the leap necessary once graduating to repertory.

 

My current prediction is Jost, Che, Mikey and Heidi leave with Bowen and Ego staying another season or so

 

Che made multiple posts on his IG about the Jost leaving rumors so it’s probably not happening lol

 

Sarah Sherman seems like a good person who was pitched a shit role and maybe didn't have the foresight in the readthrough to realize how it was gonna come off. Somebody wrote that sketch and Lorne signed off on it. It seems unfair Sherman got all the heat for it.

 

Hoping for a PDD

 

as am i

 

YES

Can’t believe we went through an entire season with only like, 4 PDD sketches.

 

Another banger from PDD. The Channel 4 one was decent too.

 

oh they're doing bowen's straight again

 

How many times can they run this premise back

 

Okay it was worth it for “Oh Scarj”

 

mike...

 

why isn't devon playing kanye

 

my kids? my kids are safe

 

Family stability is important

 

Kanye one was very random. I doubt many people know about the song about him and his cousin.

 

Come to think of it, I’ve never seen Colin Jost and Robert Smith in the same room….

 

Bad hair good face you have mental problems

If a lesbian was born in a lab with no human contact would they still dress like that

 

lolololol they cut off midway through whatever scarlett was gonna say to lorne
