As a longtime SNL enthusiast with over two decades of laughter and joy under my belt, I must admit that Saturday’s episode was one for the books. The “joke swap” between Colin Jost and Michael Che never fails to deliver a good chuckle, but this time it was the unexpected presence of Scarlett Johansson that truly elevated the segment.
2024’s last Saturday Night Live episode featured the eagerly awaited “joke swap” between Weekend Update hosts Colin Jost and Michael Che. In this segment, they write jokes for each other without seeing them first, resulting in sometimes awkward, boundary-pushing humor. This time, an unexpected twist added tension: Scarlett Johansson, Jost’s wife, was present in the studio.
In the course of the evening’s spontaneous amusement, Johansson, who had previously graced SNL with her presence as a five-time host, found herself becoming an impromptu performer. The cameras were strategically placed to catch her real-time expressions, and Jost humorously highlighted her seemingly anxious demeanor as the segment commenced.
In this rephrased version, the conversation might look like:
Che had more to say. A joke about Johansson, involving a sandwich from Costco, crossed the line and was too explicit for broadcast, leaving her speechless once more.
Instead, In the end, though, it was Jost who had his retaliation. Che, under duress, had to read out a string of jokes, one of which made light of a contentious legal claim involving Jay-Z and Sean “Diddy” Combs. Uncomfortably, he recited, “Jay-Z is innocent. He wasn’t even at those parties, and I know because I was! And Diddy, if you’re tuning in, we’re still the bad boys for life.
One of Jost’s scenarios revolved around the movie Moana 2, where Che playfully quipped, “Much like my old buddy and I would say, there’s no place quite like an island escapade with a young woman.
Johansson’s responses injected a humorous touch into the piece, with her apparent surprise enhancing the comic discomfort. The humor wasn’t just from the jokes themselves, but also from the way Johansson responded to the unexpected moments, and the unique dynamic between the couple.
During the Weekend Update segment, there were lighter moments too, like Jost’s humorous response when the crowd cheered for Luigi Mangione, a man under accusation for murder. With a touch of sarcasm, he said, “I believe you all are expressing your admiration for the pursuit of justice.
