During the 2021-2022 "Saturday Night Live" season, both Colin Jost and Michael Che bumped Seth Meyers from the number one to the number three spot. While they've spent most of their time co-hosting together, Colin Jost sat down behind the "Weekend Update" desk a little bit earlier than Che, with the two clocking in at 173 and 164 episodes, respectively, which beats out Seth Meyers' 154 and Tina Fey's 118.

"Weekend Update" is a "Saturday Night Live" sketch and satirical news program that comments on and parodies current events. It is the show's longest-running recurring sketch, having been on since the show's first broadcast, and is typically presented in the middle of the show immediately after the first musical performance.

Historically, one or two of the players are cast in the role of news anchor, presenting gag news items based on current events and acting as hosts for occasional editorials, commentaries, or other performances by other cast members or guests.

In modern times, dedicated anchors are chosen among writing staff, often lead writers, in lieu of cast or featured players. Chevy Chase has said that "Weekend Update" – which he was the first to anchor in 1975 – paved the way for comedic news shows like "The Daily Show" and "The Colbert Report".
