In a effort to launch its new Thursday night comedy lineup, NBC will re-team Amy Poehler and Seth Meyers at the Weekend Update desk when Saturday Night Live Weekend Update Thursday premieres on September 17.
Really?! Yes, really.
Weekend Update will lead into the second season premiere of Parks and Recreation, followed by The Office and Community, with Joel McHale and Chevy Chase.
Amy will also co-anchor SNLWUT the following Thursday (September 24). No word yet on whether she’ll continue co-anchoring the show after September 24.
