The Writers Guild of America 2023 strike lasted from May 2 to September 27, while the SAG-AFTRA 2023 strike went from July 14 to November 9. Since “SNL” does not fall under the purview of the Screen Actors Guild, that is why the show’s actors were allowed to work during October of 2023 while picketing was still going on in other parts of the industry.
“Saturday Night Live’s” Weekend Update was once again anchored by Colin Jost and Michael Che in Season 49, just as they had done every week together since September of 2014. As of “SNL’s” 47th season two years ago, Jost and Che are officially the longest-serving duo in the history of Weekend Update.
