“Certainly, I’m still surprised and sort of moved by the reaction and some private messages people have sent me,” Strong said on The View of her viral "Weekend Update" sketch from November, according to The Wrap. “A lot of women who say I’m the only one they’ve ever told or will tell. So that still really moves me. And I think — I had so much anxiety and frustration, and it was like ‘I’m either gonna write every night, essays for nobody, or I can finally just put this on the show.'” Strong noted that everybody on the SNL writing staff was supportive and nobody gave notes.
