The Israeli Show: Israel's Version of SNL's Weekend Update


One of the most popular features of the US Television Show Saturday Night Live is the Weekend Update segment hosted by Seth Meyers. Taking a page from this very successful comedic weekly survey of the news, David Sidman anchors an Israeli version that has been appearing on YouTube at approximately weekly intervals. 

While the Israeli version has some rough edges, it is getting better with time, and we'll be monitoring the weekly telecasts to bring you some of the better ones. Here's a recent one to start. Enjoy!
