@@glh7728 I think they both admire each other a lot more that that, its difficult being in a band with your best mate, it's too intense, that's a different kind of love, but thank god we had almost 10 years out of it with the beatles.

[@kovvvas]

No one does this like Steve Martin. Never nervous, always funny.

[@hojaseca13]

He is the best host of anything, next to Martin Short. On the other hand also Billy Crystal improvised perhaps the best joke of the bit: "Steve, is it Steve right?".

[@nomimalone7520]

His style is effortless.

[@satyajitrathod5836]

Chris Rock admiring Paul McCartney is everything.....

[@gramajomd]

Singers named "Paul" for the win

[@MariaLuisa-vv4ug]

I do like Miley Cyrus, but you'd think they'd get a more significant person to deliver the "What about musicians" piece

[@SureFeelsGood]

She's not any good. But they did get the two legend pauls..would have loved sting up there.

Why in the blue hell did they include Miley Cyrus in this.

[@Steve27775]

The clue is in the title - because she was a host.

still...

[@lisagonzales5044]

She completely ruined this experience for me.

"told you we should have done sound of silence" hahuuhea LMAO

[@jasonfernandes2197]

I'm so happy to see so many faces, that brought me so much laughter, tears and memorable phrases, from throughout my life. The reality of time being a limited resource is quite striking when I look at the cast and various hosts. I remember when I first saw Chevy Chase. And i remember Burt Reynolds from his movies though. I just looked him up and he did host SNL once. Thanks to watching Norm Macdonald playing him in the Jeopardy skits. I remember the greats who have fallen according to time-running-out. A great thank you to all of you behind the scenes and to those who tickled us all the way to our diaphragms. For the hosts who have enamored us through their gifts of entertainment, we salute you! Much love to all of you from Malaysia.

[@svetoslavkrastev228]

Wow - I didn't know THE George Carlin was a host and the first at that - what a great way to start a legacy. 👌😍👌 3:44 - Tom Hanks was sooo like: Shots fired, shots fired!!! 😂🤣
