Unlike most people, Cory Michael Smith actually wanted to meet Chevy Chase. The actor, who portrayed the controversial comedian in Saturday Night, told Entertainment Weekly that he wanted to tell Chase that it was an honor “to portray him at this really pivotal moment in his life.” The two never ended up meeting, as Jason Reitman discouraged his cast from talking to their real-life counterparts, but luckily, Smith found other ways to pour himself into research and bring the show’s breakout star to life. 

Meanwhile, current SNL cast member Ego Nwodim is practicing her poker face. The comedian is joining a growing list of guest stars for the second season of Natasha Lyonne’s mystery-of-the-week Poker Face. Other previously announced guest stars include John Mulaney, Sam Richardson, Giancarlo Esposito and BJ Novak. 

Over on the timeline, these tweets might make your poker face crack. Today’s funniest include those about a coffee shop stuck in the past, the girl who came to a startling realization thanks to some simple arithmetic and the scariest thing for one 17-year-old.
