On Thursday , BrunsonandBoonewere get together by SNL starSarah Shermanfor SNL ’s on - stage promos . Except that this week ’s promos were a bit unlike … remember of it more as a three - turn tragical play involving backflips and broken dreams ( we kind of care the sound of that ):

On Friday , Brunson force a " Tonight Show Timeout " when she " interrupted"Jimmy Fallonto promote this weekend :

Season 48 Episode 16: Quinta Brunson/Lil Yachty Highlights

" Bridesmaid Cult Documentary " show a mystifying hold for the popularity of wedding ceremony realism shows and honest - crime docuseries , proving once again why we should all be grateful that a strike involving post - production editors ( the sept who make things like these possible ) was avoided . " Traffic Altercation " has me wanting a fixed storage - com with Brunson andMikey Daystarring ( with bonus pointedness toChloe Fineman ’s girl & her chemical reaction to being the " gripe " in the central – and Day ’s reaction to it ) . Brunson demonstrate the different things that Day can " run through " got the best laughter out of me .

" Street Eats " found Please Do n’t demolish ( Ben Marshall , John Higgins&Martin Herlihy ) went the thespian route this calendar week , playing hosts of an NYC - based traveling show where they tender viewers a whitewashing of all of the various penchant that make up NYC . The trio aim bonus points for making my spine chill over how they pronounced " bodega . " But the weekend ’s top honors go to " Weekend Update " anchor / Centennial State - head writerMichael Chefor the smashing on - air April Fools ' Day prank that he was able to pull on his WU conscientious objector - anchor / carbon monoxide gas - read/write head writerColin Jost – with some serious helper from the lively studio audience . And airplane propeller to Jost for his oh - so - tangible reaction to it and how he stayed with it through the remainder of thesegments .
