Not Rami Malek[edit]
The guest host of an episode Saturday Night Live doesn't do the Weekend Up part and the image doesn't look anything like Rami Malek. The hairstyle, the mouth movement, tapping the pen on the desk are Colin Jost signatures. The line isn't that Rami Malek is the guest host, it's "Host, Rami Malek or better." so it's about doing a spot on Weekend Update which is done with Colin Jost and not that week's guest host and the PR plan is appear when the host isn't specifically Rami Malek, but "Rami Malek or better."

- The way the sentence is structured implies to me that Malek is the host of the segment. "Host, Rami Malek or better", yes, "or better" is part of it. But why would he then go and show a clip of someone who is not Malek, with the monkey who was part of Homer and Bart's branding, after mentioning Malek as a host?

- Either way, I've taken to Twitter to ask Al Jean (and any other writers/animators) if they know who it's supposed to be, so hopefully we'll get a confirmation there. The Solar Dragon 08:18, February 3, 2024 (EST)
- Thanks for following up. I guess there's a difference between hosting the overall episode and hosting a segment like Weekend Update which is when that's week's guest host is uninvolved. Celebrities have pop-in appearances on Weekend Update i.e. Jennifer Aniston, Tina Fey, but it's only with Colin Jost while the guest host of the overall episode does other stuff such as the monologue and sketches.

- Al Jean has confirmed that it is indeed Jost, so I have made the page moves. The Solar Dragon 12:22, February 3, 2024 (EST)
