Steve Martin Returns to Host ‘Saturday Night Live’

By Brook Joyner, CNN

Actor and comedian Steve Martin hosted ‘Saturday Night Live’ for the 16th time this weekend, joined by longtime collaborator and former ‘SNL’ cast member Martin Short.

It was the first time Martin has hosted since 2009. He is second to only Alec Baldwin for the most appearances as host.

Martin is the only person to ever host three times in one season, and he became a member of the coveted “Five-Timers Club” less than two years after his first hosting gig in 1976. He has also appeared as a special guest on the show more than a dozen times.
