As many of you know, Saturday Night Live is on broadcast TV. That means you cannot say the word shit without getting fined, even the show is broadcasting after midnight on a Sunday morning.
However, yesterday that four-letter word was heard during Weekend Update, and not by any of the Not Ready for Primetime Players.
So what happened? Ego Nwodim was pretending to be the host of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. Therefore, she was working the audience by roasting the food served at DC’s prom.
Miss Eggy said to the audience, “Cory Booker out here with his filibuster. Shoot, I’ve had my fill of busters. Because these men ain’t what?” And without hesitation the audience replied in unison with, “SHIT!!!”
Michael Che stood up and was like, Oh no, they didn’t. Colin Jost looked in shock and nervously laughed. While Nwodim saw her career flash before her eyes, then she went on with the show. “We’re gonna get fired for that. It’s ‘Worth a damn’, sucker. Y’all gonna pay for that. Lorne [Michaels] goona be mad at y’all,” she lectured them.
There is no word yet on how he reacted. I am sure that in public, he will condone their actions, but behind the scenes, he was laughing with them.
When they go in front of the FTC, all NBC needs to say is that president Donald Trump says it all the time and you don’t fine his fat ass. What is good for the goose (which they will be serving at this year’s White House Correspondents’ Dinner) is good for the gander.
