During Saturday Night Live‘s last episode of its 50th season, the show welcomed another star into its highly coveted “Five Times Club” — Martin Short! The comedian and Only Murders in the Building actor has officially hosted the show five times, and he got a hilarious welcome from several fellow Five Timers Club members in the December 2024 episode.
Previously, Martin was a cast member on SNL. During the December 2024 episode, Martin was joined by several Five-Timers club members, including Alex Baldwin, Emma Stone, Melissa McCarthy and Kristen Wiig. His long-time buddy, Steve Martin, wasn’t there for the episode, but he is too a member of the group.
Even Jimmy Fallon was there to welcome Martin with his honorary Five-Timers Club jacket. The late-night host joked, “I’d like to present to you the official five-timers club jacket, in exactly your size: a women’s small.”
