-"Brooklyn Nine-Nine"
coming back.
Very exciting.
-Season seven.
-Seven and eight.
[ Cheers and applause ]
Seven and eight.
-Yeah.
-This a show that was cancelle
and then came back.
And it must be crazy that no
only did it come back
for sort of its swan song,
it's now multiple seasons.
-Yeah, and we -- yeah, like yo
said, we got picked up
for an eighth that we're gonna
shoot after this one airs,
so we're so stoked.
-That's really awesome, and I'
really excited for this season
Vanessa Bayer
cameoed this season.
-Yeah, Care Bear right there
[ Cheers and applause ]
-One of the best.
-The best.
-What she looks like,
I'm just gonna say it,
like not a good cop.
-What?!
-Yeah.
[ Laughter ]
Alright. So we have to move on
to the real reason
you're here tonight.
-Yeah.
-"Second Chance Theatre."
-"Second Chance Theatre."
It's exciting.
-This is a sketch that went to
dress two times.
-Yes.
-And it is called
"Griff Banks: Sensitive Bully.
-Yeah.
"Griff Banks: Sensitive Bully.
-What was the impetus
for this idea?
-Well, it was written by m
and Colin Jost and Rob Klein
-Yeah.
-And it's sort of pulling from
the '80s and some '90s
film tropes of, like, the bull
that's, like, riding the ner
the whole movie.
But then when the nerd stands up
to the bully,
the bully kind of caves.
-Yeah.
-And you're like,
"Yeah! Go, nerd!"
-So that's what was
sort of the impetus.
-Yeah.
-And both times it went to
dress, do you feel like --
how do you think
it played at dress?
-I thought very well.
-Okay.
-Yeah.
-You think it should have aired?
-Yeah.
-Okay.
-But I thought everything
I did should have aired.
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
-That's very noble of you
to point that out as well.
-For sure.
And you never let me
on "Update," man!
-You were on "Update."
-Oh, no! You always cut me
I had to get celebrities via Nic
Cage so you couldn't cut it!
-No, you were on "Update"
all the time.
-What about Topical Frank?
-Topical Frank was a bad sketch.
-It sucked!
[ Laughter ]
But -- But hear me out.
It was topical.
[ Laughter ]
-Do a quick snippet of
Topical Frank for the people
-Topical Frank would be like -
-He would come on "Update.
-He'd be like, "Yeah, boy.
Something about the caucus
"topical."
[ Laughter ]
-It was your way
of a work-around
when Lorne would complain that
he wanted "Update" feature
to be about the news.
-Well, you and Baze would always
tell me like,
"It's not really topical,
and we want something topica
this week."
-Yeah.
-So we wrote Topical Frank
[ Laughter ]
-There are two things
that I want the audience
to be ready for in "Griff Banks"
that we diverged on.
-Yeah.
-And our tastes overlap a lot.
There's a line about
Griff Banks' dog...
-Right.
-...that I feel
very strongly against
and you feel very strongly pro
-Crushed it dress.
-Crushed it dress.
-One of the two times.
-There's also -- There's a lin
that it might just --
The camera might just cut to m
after that line
so the audience knows that was
a thing that I wasn't --
-That you were maybe against
-I was maybe against.
And I'll try to, like,
with my expression
reveal how I felt
about the line.
-Okay, we'll see how it goes
-I'm very excited about this
-Me too.
-Alright.
