How to Watch Colin Jost & Michael Che's Live Comedy Special, New York After Dark
Ahead of SNL's premiere, the "Weekend Update" anchors will host a major stand-up event on Thursday, September 12.
Ahead of Saturday Night Live's Season 50 premiere, Colin Jost and Michael Che will take their "Weekend Update" banter to a New York City stage in a must-see live comedy event.
On September 12, Peacock will stream its first-ever live comedy special, Colin Jost & Michael Che Present: New York After Dark.
The duo, who have hosted SNL's "Weekend Update" together since 2014, will host New York After Dark for an in-person audience at The Bell House in Brooklyn, NY, as it streams live on Peacock. As for the surprise guests who'll be stepping up to the mic, the night is slated to be "drop ins only," so it's anybody's guess — expect some of Jost and Che's favorite acts, up-and-coming talent, and maybe a few well-known names.

Colin Jost & Michael Che Present: New York After Dark will be helmed by longtime SNL associate director Michael Mancini, who has been part of directing team at the late night sketch show since 2012.
