‘SNL’s Weekend Update Sees Triumphant Return Of Ego Nwodim’s Crowd-Pleasing Alter Ego Miss Eggy (No FCC Slip-Ups This Time)


SNL's Weekend Update saw the triumphant return of crowd favorite Miss Eggy, an ebullient and pun-filled comedic alter ego of MVP Ego Nwodim's.

“You know her, you love her, you got her fined by the FCC,” Jost introduced, as Nwodim’s character quickly got down to brass tacks about the real problem plaguing travel: bad airplane cuisine. Ever the wordsmith and whip-smart as always, Miss Eggy refused the butternut squash ravioli, telling the attendant, “more like, better-not offer me that mess ’till you put some meat in it,” punctuating the statement with her signature “sucka!” Nwodim concluded her time with a truly terrific Eggs Benedict pun, and based on audience response, it seems the midsize bag-carrying problematic auntie comic is welcome to the anchor desk anytime.
