Catch up on the headlines with this roundup of 'Weekend Update' clips from last night's SNL: Seth Meyers weighed in on this week's big issues including President Obama's 'controversial remark' towards California Attorney General Kamala Harris. Charles Barkley and Bar Mitzvah Boy also make an appearance. Check out the clips below!

Comedian Melissa McCarthy returned to host last night's episode of SNL for second time, alongside alt-rock group Phoenix, who served as the show's featured musical guest.

Since its inception in 1975, "SNL" has launched the careers of many of the brightest comedy performers of their generation; and, as The New York Times noted on the occasion of the show's Emmy-winning 25th Anniversary special in 1999: "In Defiance of both time and show business convention, 'SNL' is still the most pervasive influence on the art of comedy in contemporary culture." At the close of the century, "Saturday Night Live" placed seventh on Entertainment Weekly's list of the Top 100 Entertainers of the past fifty years.
