Who do you think should be the new "Weekend Update" anchor? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Sitcomwriter · 05-20-2004, 04:34 PM

I say Keenan. There's never been a black WU anchor before.

AKA · 05-20-2004, 04:48 PM

I say nobody. They should just cancel SNL and finally put it out of its misery.

I agree with having Keenan. I think Tina and Keenan would make a good team for WU!

Dean Winchester · 05-20-2004, 06:28 PM

Keenan seems way too nice for Weekend Update

just let Tina be the sole anchorwoman

*Pleasant Tomorrow* · 05-20-2004, 08:58 PM

I honestly have no idea. Whatever is fine, but Tina and Jimmy were kinda like this duo, it'd be weird with one of them missing. But I guess Tina alone would be pretty good. I can't really picture anyone else doing it.

ditto.

And AKA.... I dont think they should kill SNL, maybe itll get a resurgence in 2005.

Parnell or Hammond with Tina. Preferably Hammond.

Chambers · 06-16-2004, 09:23 PM

Tina can handle it on her own.

Orville Kruger · 06-16-2004, 09:34 PM

Go for broke and hire Jon Stewart.

Any Odd Couple fans here?

Can I nominate myself in this category?

I agree that Tina could do it on her own. If she does have to have a partner, though, I wouldn't waste Keenan. It should be someone more bland, saving the actors more adept at wacky characterizations for the guest commentators and celebrity interviews.

Brian Damage · 06-17-2004, 10:39 AM

Wait, what happened to Jimmy Fallon?

Yeah, that's why I suggested Parnell. He's probably the "blandest" of the cast.

But I also think Hammond has a sort of newsman quality to him that could work nicely.

He left the show at the end of this season.
