Watch Colin Jost debut as SNL Weekend Update co-anchor
NBC/Hulu
Saturday Night Live head writer Colin Jost made his debut in the Weekend Update chair this weekend, replacing Seth Meyers to co-anchor with Cecily Strong. Jost looked pretty comfortable in his new role, and he lands some great jokes about Pop Tarts and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. NBC's late-night shifting of the guard is now complete. --Peter Weber
