This will be awful. It won't work over 30 minutes.

One of SNL's handicaps is that they're once a week and WU deals with timely news. By the time they get to the jokes, every punchline has already been used on the daily shows and on social media.

At least this gives them a chance to hit some of the news of the early week before it gets stale.

They'll have to have an actual interview, which I'm not sure how these clowns will pull this off. The only 4 I would trust with that are Miller, Norm, Fallon, and Meyers. Fallon and Meyers won't do it for obvious reasons, nor would I really want them to. Miller and Norm I think would be your only rational options there because they are the only two as far as I know that can hold down an interview and do well.
