Should we take bets on when Roxy stopped watching?
When his colostomy bag was full, right around Weekend Update?

All I know is that if Aidy Bryant isn't on next season, I'm going to picket NBC.

It's funny how articles still refer to them as the Not Ready for Primetime Players when the show hasn't called them that in decades. I think Aidy's pretty much set. For once it's the boys who haven't gelled. I would be up in the air about Colin Jost, too, were I a power that be.

I want Beck Bennett to stay because I've got a crush on him, but I can live without the others.
I think Aidy will be back. She's my current favorite on the show. Here's her appearance on Late Night the other night.

She could be their next big breakout performer.
Have to agree, I would imagine the biggest changes are with the featured players - and especially the new(ish) men, most of whom have been dull and and forgettable. Lorne needs to work his magic and find another Kate McKinnon - someone you just know will rocket from featured to repertory player in just 1 season.
I like Colin and my personal favorite is Kate.
Kate, Bobby and Taran are the highlights of the show for me right now! Jay. after being given a rather long gestation period, is starting to show really great promise! Perhaps taht is because they finally got a few black writers that can give hin a voice!

I'm so excited about this. He'll be awesome.

Rumor has it he will be followed by Bill Murray then Sarah Silverman. Nice way to start off season 40!
I'm thinking Racoon puppets with |Tree costumes may appear in the shop. But I'll tune in to see of course.
That was our first thought too. Though I can definately see them dress Bobby up as a Raccoon and green screening him in.
Ok I did like the Marvel Can't Fail Bit. The earlier stuff seemed half baked. Hope things improve.
So glad to see Cecily back as The Girl You Wish You Hadn't Started a Conversation With at a Party.
Actually all of Update was pretty good. Let's hope the spiral upward continues.

Has Update ever been anchored by a featured player before, let alone two featured players? I thought that was automatic A-Team. I thought the news was great. Michael Che will be perfect.
Oh, and LESLIE JONES!
That 90's sitcom skit was one of the best things I've ever seen in my entire life.
"The fight is over"
EPIC.
addendum- Last sketch was ok- certainly not as stiff as the 1st half hr. Solid B.

As far as I'm concerned, the Good Neighbor shorts are better than the Lonely Island shorts ever were. The sitcom sketch was brilliant from top to bottom.

Cialis Turnt. The bar pick-up scene.
That Pete Davidson newbie is a dang funny 20 year old.

I KNOW! and the fact he looks 12 helps him with that 'my age group" thing he's got going on.

Plus he has that rubbery face like Laurie Metcalf, Don Knotts and Steve Buscemi all combined.
I LOVED Leslie Jones' segment. Laughed my butt off!
