Last week, Lorne Michaels said that Saturday Night Live was going to go through some casting changes, and he was not kidding.
So far this week, Devon Walker, Emil Wakim, and Michael Longfellow have announced that they will not be back. Personally, I didn’t care because I didn’t know who they were.
However, today, there was one more name added to the list, and it is one I have heard of. Heidi Gardner will not be back for her ninth season, according to Vulture.
We don’t have to worry about her because she is very busy with Shrinking and Homes.com commercials.
In honor of her leaving, let’s watch and laugh with her as she breaks in that infamous Beavis and Butt-Head skit.
Seth Meyers takes questions from the audience during tapings of Late Night, and a woman wanted to know what was the favorite joke he told from his time on Saturday Night Live.
He did not answer that question. Instead, he told her about “the joke that bombed the hardest during dress [rehearsal].”
What is it? He put his head down in shame and said, “A man in Washington state was arrested for animal cruelty after he was caught having sex with the family dog. Even worse, it was makeup sex.” And then he giggled in his cute little way as the audience moaned.
“The thing I always love about it is how you all groaned at the end,” he explained. “But you kind of like waiting after. After ‘sex with the family dog’, let’s hear him out. We don’t know his reasons yet.”
This was his worst joke, but it was not his only one. His co-anchor, Amy Poehler, would try to tell him not to do certain jokes. He didn’t listen, told them, the audience hated them, and then she would say, “I told you so.”
I would love to know what some of them were. Someone should write a book or release the videos from dress telling or showing all the awful things that didn’t make it all the way to Saturday Night Live, they can call it Saturday Night Dead.
Before Chloe Fineman was doing weird impressions on Saturday Night Live, she debuted her peafowl impression on The Late Show with David Letterman. How cute was the 16-year-old doing whatever that was on that 2004 episode?
Scarlett Johansson hosted the final episode of Saturday Night Live’s 50th season. Even though it was the first time we saw her host this season, she has been a big part of the show this year. That is because she is married to Colin Jost, in case you didn’t know.
Back in December, Jost and Michael Che exchanged jokes during Weekend Update. And the person who paid the biggest price during their jokes was Johansson. Che made his co-anchor say that his wife’s vagina looks like roast beef after giving birth to their son Cosmo.
It was something that shocked her and everyone else who watched. But the Josts stayed quiet. That is until yesterday.
Once again, the two men exchanged jokes that they wrote for the other one, and it was finally time for the couple to get their revenge. So, Scarlett was called out and sat next to Che, so that he could read the apology that Jost had written for his partner to read.
While I laughed out loud several times, I thought the jokes could have been a lot meaner. Maybe next time! Who knows? Maybe someday Che will have a wife that Jost can say something disgusting about. Who am I kidding? That will never happen.
Back in 2022, a very stoned Colin Jost and Pete Davidson bought a Staten Island Ferry for $280,000, and the two Staten Island natives have regretted ever since.
Therefore, they have tried selling it, but so far, there are no buyers. So, Jost has gone to drastic measures to find the boat a new home. Mr. Scarlett Johannsson appeared in a Saturday Night Live sketch, which he never does, begging the cast members to take it off their hands.
It did not work. But maybe someone will see it and take pity on him! Because we have all regretted buying something while we were drunk or high on Amazon! The difference is that we might have spent $280 at most, and not $280,000.
Maybe someone can tell Elon Musk that it can take him to Atlantis so that he will take it off their hands!
