Colin Jost shared his favorite opening scene from Saturday evening live and it goes back to one of the most talked about moments of the series.
Speaking about The summary, he said the 2008 sketch with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler was still the best in his eyes.
In this scene, Tina played Sarah Palin while Amy played Katie Couric, turning a real interview into something very funny and memorable.
“If I was doing a recap and I picked a cold interview, the Katie Couric-Sarah Palin interview, I think I would put it here,” Jost said.
The iconic comedian also said that the skit meant a lot to him personally because it reminded him of his early days on the show.
“It’s nostalgic for me, because it was a start for me as a writer,” he explained.
“[Seth Meyers] wrote it. I’m sure Tina and Amy had a hand in that too.”
Jost also praised the trio and said, “I think they’re two of the best to ever do it.”
Colin, however, added that he always appreciates simple, short introductions that focus on a strong idea and a solid performance.
