there's just too much bad photoshop going on in that image for me to take it as a given that this supposed Halloween costume is what it purports to be.

I know, right? I'm so used to SNL performers being somebody who's already famous, because that's how it worked, like, three out of 39 years it's been on the air!

well that doesn't seem completely fair. other designated WU hosts such as Brad Hall and Dennis Miller never suffered such indignities.

the room is very important in comedy. laughter is contagious, and not-laughter is equally contagious.

GOOOOOOOOOO FIGHTING FIGHTERS! FIGHT!

they say it's supposed to be mixed comedy arts, but everybody just seems to do a modified form of slapstick.

well UFC fights seem like a terrible place to catch someone's standup act in the first place!

what you're missing is that Cecily Strong, though tapped for the chair, is no Tina Fey. I have seen nothing to indicate that she can carry Weekend Update solo, apparently the producers of SNL share my concern, or else they wouldn't have promoted a writer to take on half the WU duties in Seth's absence.

I don't think you can be the weekend update host or co-host and still be *only* a featured performer. I think that automatically bumps you up to full-fledged cast member status.

as curious as I would be to see Cecily fly solo… something tells me they probably do need a co-anchor.

hey, Mathew McConaughey has been pretty busy of late, they're gonna need all the impressions they can get!

oh, I see how it is: Seth Meyers leaves, so they hire a token white guy to fill his spot. typical PC America!

recording exec: "face it, kid, it's over. sales have dropped off a cliff, and the audience has all moved onto One Direction. sorry to be the one to tell you this, but you can't even get arrested in this town anymore."

"does this mean I'm hard now? does it, does it? I've always wanted to be hard, and now I'm hard! I bet I'll be the guy in prison that everybody wants to be friends with cause I'm so hard! dude, this is gonna be soooo cool!"

wait, janitors are authority?

look at him, he's being arrested, having his mugshot taken, and his eyes are simply GLEAMING! if that don't sell you on the power of Zoloft to overcome life's difficult times, then I don't know what will!

say what you will about him, but the boy sure does pose for squeaky clean lookin' mugshot.

clearly the Asian girl farted.

that woman was sixteen like I am sixteen.

no, Workaholics is a lame ripoff of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia. this, by comparison, is a really good ripoff of Flight Of The Concords.
