Stu, you really summed up what I've been trying to get my head around. I think it's this sort of meta entertainment where we get to see a small curated look behind the curtain. The pandemic helped humanize Seth as we started to see him broadcasting in the same way I was seeing my coworkers every day. Then couple that with Seth's charming way of breaking from the script and/or ranting in such a funny way and the show really starts to satisfy me on a para-social kind of way. The way he addresses the jackals and builds additional content out of it is pure genius. I love all of this. And if you are reading this far, I suspect you do too.

My favorite part of surprise inspection is how you really do get a feel for which writers write which jokes, and what their personal senses of humor and comedic stylings are. I regularly hear a joke now and think “I bet that one was Ally” or “That sounds like Karen” and I think we all just scoff sometimes and go “yep, Scollins.”

CORRECTION: the “brain-eating parasite” in Ally’s joke about pets is presumably referring to Toxoplasma gondii. However, while this pathogen is found in feline feces and can infect the brain (leading to encephalitis), it wouldn’t be classified as ‘brain-eating’ as it does not cause tissue necrosis, only inflammation.

Truly honest sidebar: I paused the video at the golf joke, and wrote that above comment before Seth even brings up Scollins in the video.

Scollins is on a roll this time. That Woody Allen one is great, too.

Can you imagine how entertaining their daily pitch meetings must be? With all of these hilarious people sitting around a table, each sharing dozens of thse jokes?

Just a minor jackal-note, but I'm pretty sure we've already yapped at you about crossbows shooting bolts, not arrows.

“Yapped at you” funny!

I love how they sticked with the most tacky and low effort intro ever. I guess the graphics department refuses to do one cause he is lately treating them quite nicely..., and we all know that's not what they want... 😂😂😂

That dolphin was A+ I would have loved that in the monologue. Would have got lots of chuckles AND boos

Seth better watch his back, I think Colin Jost and Michael Che from SNL are going to be gunning for Mike with how sharp his sense of humor is in those dark jokes. Maybe a bit too much for Late Night but perfect tone for Weekend Update

I laughed really hard at Mike Scollins' jokes this time. I found the dolphins and 'Hop on Pop' jokes to be hilarious. Allie's joke was quality too. Love this segment!

Jokes are funny, but making fun of jokes is funnier

Yeah, i think Ally nailed it yet again w the cat parasite. Maybe Seth didn't want to get yelled at by PETA folks for the manatee one? I looked up Scollins, and everything makes more sense if you know he's a Mass-hole (including why I like his jokes).

A hidden gem here is the set-up for the McDonald’s joke, “a man from Illinois has gained attention online”. Straight satire of the banality of contemporary news outlets.

This, along with corrections, is my favourite segment.

Seth it is important to remember that crossbows do not shoot arrows, but rather bolts or quarrels. I believe you were already corrected on this. get it together, Man.

He probably knows by now but is just reading the jokes as written, besides, if his writers don't watch the show they may or may not be there for corrections 🤷
