‘SNL': ‘Weekend Update’ Says Harvey Weinstein Should Be in Prison. “SNL” nailed embattled Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein during its “Weekend Update” segment this week, joking about his reported plan to enter rehab for sex addiction.
After two weeks of stories about women coming forward to accuse Weinstein of sexual assault and harassment, Colin Jost opened “Weekend Update” by discussing the situation.
“Weinstein, who has been accused of multiple counts of sexual assault is going to Europe for sex rehab,” Jost said. “He doesn’t need sex rehab. He needs a specialized facility where there are no women, no contact with the outside world, metal bars, and it’s a prison.”
“You know, this is a tough spot for a comedian, because it’s so hard to make jokes about sexual assault, but it’s so easy to make jokes about a guy that looks like this,” Michael Che continued, indicating a photo of Weinstein. “He looks like chewed bubble gum rolled in cat hair.”
“Weinstein told reporters that he was seeking help, and added ‘We all make mistakes,'” Che said. “Nah, man, a mistake is me walking into the wrong bathroom and using it anyway because I was crowning. But you, you assaulted dozens of women. That’s not a mistake. That’s a full season of ‘Law and Order.’ It’s a verb now. As in, ‘If this guy tries to Weinstein me I’m going to cut off a little Harvey.'”
