This will be awful. It won't work over 30 minutes
I mean, Weekend Update is basically a 20-minute uninterrupted commercial free segment each show. Which is the equivalent of a half hour show with commercials. It'll be more than able to fill that quota.
That being said, you're usually jonesing for entertainment that late in summer with literally nothing on TV and a month til football and new cable and network programming returns to the air so I'm ok with this.

I'm pretty sure it's closer to 10 and 12 tops. They'll need a lot of padding.
Really, why not cycle out some of the old Weekend Update anchors. A new one every year? Just seems like this is a bad idea all around just doing those two that no one cares about. It's just "Bash Trump" for 30 minutes, which there are a half a dozen people who do better than them at that.
