    Late to performance

    by Hahachuckles on 10/29/23Silver Creek Event Center at Four Winds New Buffalo - New Buffalo

    Colin’s show was to start at 9:00 pm and he didn’t show up until close to 11:30; 2 1/2 hours late. Once he got there he only performed for about 30 minutes. Very disappointing!!

    Unimpressed

    by Dapenga123 on 10/25/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    I absolutely love Colin Jost and Michael Che but Michael Che was very off this show, he said himself he was “super hung over”. He clearly wasn’t prepared for the show and it showed. Marcello Hernandez was an opener for the show and he was incredible though.

    Funny but issues

    by MMG on 10/23/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    Ok, deducted one star because of two issues: First, the annoying yonder phone bags that caused a huge log jam getting into the venue. Second, while funny at first, I gotta say Michael Che not being able to function because he was completely wasted was not great. I get it, it was the first day after the end of the strike and they had celebrated. We paid good money and he was incapable of remembering his set. What is he Madonna now?

    Messy show

    by Big Che Fan on 10/23/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    I love Jost and Che. But this show felt like a complete afterthought. Openers were stronger than the mains. As a longtime fan, it felt disrespectful -- of our time, money, etc. I've been to a number of comedy cellar type shows with Che/Jost where they test content, play around, etc. so was expecting this to be a more polished show -- given we were at one of the most iconic theaters in NYC. That makes sense for those events -- that is the purpose of them. But I didn't expect that for this one. All to say I was disappointed -- cast was tired, hungover, etc. from the SNL show the night before and the content felt rushed, not fully baked, and overall stale. Sad to say it wasn't a fun use of time and didn't feel valued as a fan whatsover :/

    Jost, Marcello, Alex English and Punkie were great

    by Paul on 10/20/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    The reason I left a mediocre rating is because Michael Che's set was so awful that my wife and I left. I am not sure he was hungover, as he claimed, or still drunk, but not even having Jost come back out could save him. High marks for Jost, Marcello Hernandez, Punkie Johnson and Alex English. So funny. Too bad the show ended on such a sour note.

    Great show, great comedy - what’s not to love!

    by Alex on 10/20/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    Absolutely amazing. I flew all the way from the UK just for this show and I can say that it was definitely worth it. I thought it was weird having to lock our phones away to begin with but once the show started it was definitely better to be in the moment rather than having phones everywhere and the jokes were top notch! I would definitely recommend this to anyone who has watched SNL and loves these two, or anyone with a sense of humour to begin with!

    Disappointing

    by Nikki on 10/20/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    What a disappointment, waste of money and 4 hour round trip for this show. Che was so drunk he couldn’t finish his set or compose a full thought. They went on very late (so late that we missed the last ferry back to our car) and were all over the place, it felt like they were just told 5 mins before that they had a show to put on. I get SNL was back the night before and they celebrated, but to get that drunk/hungover and let it affect the next performance is a slap in the face to the people that bought tickets months ago expecting an actual comedy show.

    Too Long, No Substance

    by nic on 10/20/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    Did not particularly enjoy this show, Colin Jost was the only relatively good part of it. It went on for way too long and I did not find it funny.

    Ahmmazzzing!

    by Meli on 10/19/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    Such a fun night with Colin Jost and Michael Che. I love watching weekend update on SNL so jumped at the chance to go to this. Everyone involved was hilarious. A truly fun night in a great venue.

    Great show until... Che went off the rails

    by CheWasDrunk on 10/19/23Radio City Music Hall - New York

    Great show until Che went off the rails - he was still fun, but energy/pace was rough
