Summary at a Glance

During the special, Martin was joined by SNL cast member Short, who said he thought he was co-hosting the event – before Martin called a pair of faux Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to haul the Canadian actor out of the studio.

Several cast members from the 50th anniversary special of Saturday Night Live have tested positive for Covid-19, Steve Martin has said.

Rudolph, who appeared on SNL from 1999 to 2007, was one of many former cast members to return for Sunday’s anniversary special, reuniting with Amy Poehler for their “Bronx Beat” sketch.

‘The SNL 50th Covid curse is real,’ said Steve Martin.

Last Sunday (16 February) the star-studded special featured appearances from Meryl Streep, Emma Stone, Sabrina Carpenter, Aubrey Plaza and Pedro Pescal, as well as performances from Miley Cyrus, Paul Simon and Lady Gaga.
