Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, and Seth Meyers Return to Weekend Update for “Joke Off”

As host of this week’s SNL, Amy Poehler couldn’t resist returning to her old Weekend Update desk, where she reunited with former co-anchors Tina Fey and Seth Meyers. The trio made a surprise appearance to challenge current anchors Colin Jost and Michael Che to a “Joke Off,” a rapid-fire punchline battle inspired by a recent news story about a Tennessee woman who broke a record by giving birth to a 13-pound baby.

Earlier in the episode, Poehler and Fey played Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem during SNL’s cold open.
