In their new live Peacock special New York After Dark, Colin Jost and Michael Che delivered a tease for what “Weekend Update” fans can expect when Saturday Night Live returns on September 28, with some added political humor about the election.
Though the pair mostly sat back and handed the stage over to lesser-known comics like Aminah Imani and Alex English, before that, however, they explained how their special was being aired live. “We wanted it to be at least the second funniest live event this week, after the debate. I don’t know about you guys, but I thought my guy did great,” Jost said.
“You gonna vote for Trump?” Che joked. “Come on out of the closet and say you’re gonna vote for Trump.”
