9 Moments From Saturday Night Live’s Milestone 50th Season

The latest retrospectives and headlines around Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary put the legendary sketch show right back in the spotlight, with big names and bold moments shaping the conversation. Bill Murray made waves by revealing he got teary during the milestone special, reflecting on favorite memories and honoring lost friends from the show’s early days, while Dan Aykroyd turned heads with his absence. Plus, Steve Martin later spilled the tea that Martin Short caught COVID-19 after the big night — bringing an unexpected “SNL curse” to their comedy tour.

Meanwhile, Scarlett Johansson weighed in (humorously but honestly) about a viral, risqué joke her husband, Colin Jost, delivered on air, highlighting how stars and the public react to SNL’s boundary-pushing humor. Behind the laughs, some celebrities like Aimee Lou Wood called out the show for sketches they found mean-spirited, with SNL offering rare apologies, while other stars — past and present — continue to debate and celebrate the impact of being parodied, reminding Us that SNL’s mix of nostalgia, controversy and unfiltered reactions keeps it a true pop culture phenomenon.
