No Musk, no. You were NOT the first SNL host with Asperger's. THAT would be DAN AKROYD.

[@bleak83]

Dan Akroyd is a douche. And yes, I've met him

[@randiekay4994]

Yeah but I'm funnier. However Dan aykroyd is funnier than me. But I know I'm funnier than Elon musk.

[@XenIsWhen]

[@ashleybrown4754]

I think I can speak for everyone with Asperger's: You can keep Elon, we don't want him.

[@Lbig78]

The title alone, automatically made me think of Steven Segal as number one.

[@dragonweyr44]

Segal had a very brief moment of fame after Under Siege and Marked For Death, but, after that, every other movie flopped HARD Basically, because he was exactly the same in every movie he did. Including the above two movies Including The Expendables

[@thepurrfectionist365]

[@dragonweyr44]

@@thepurrfectionist365 Didn't he only have like 2 scenes in the whole movie? Not only does he not die in his movies, he always survives 30 or 50 to one odds

[@DrSimian]

The Wayne Gretzky episode was funny and endearing, because everyone involved leaned into the fact that he wasn’t a performer, especially Gretzky himself. In almost every sketch he good-naturedly played himself.

[@williamgiesen4910]

He even acknowledged all that in his monologue. And yeah they made it so that he didn’t have to do much heavy lifting. The sketches were funny. I like the one in the Kings locker room post game where celebrities were giving him hockey ideas unsolicited.

[@tanookimarketing]

I saw Eli Manning and was immediately ready to rage in the comments. Eli was actually hilarious in most of his sketches. Glad he didn't make the list.

[@JurassicGodzillaFan]

Everyone knew Steven Seagal was #1.

[@RayMcElroy50]

Considering how hard Steven Seagal tries to make everyone see him as a bad mofo He could've become a funny comedian

[@ChrisOliver4307]

Come on, that Dunkin commercial is hilarious

[@TheFamousFile-US]

Exactly! Dan Aykroyd has openly shared his experiences with Asperger’s, and it’s amazing to see someone as iconic as him use his platform to bring awareness to it. Both he and Elon Musk highlight how neurodiversity exists in every walk of life, even in the spotlight. It's a great reminder that individuality and talent go hand in hand, and there's room to celebrate both!

Changing the Thumbnail from Trump to Elon is wild...

[@dragonweyr44]

This is a little off topic but, why is it that I can never find the premier episode for 2001 when Rudy Guiliani police officers and firefights came on stage to commemorate 9/11 and afterwards, Lorne Michaels comes on stage to ask Rudy if "If it's ok to be funny again?" To which Rudy asks "You were funny before?"

Maybe you also could've mentioned the fact that Will Ferrell has openly remarked that Chevy Chase was the worst host.

[@rig-zag]

To be fair, many of these selections were athletes, musicians and other non-acting celebrities, and too many were deemed bad only in retrospect because of scandal, or controversial skits that don't translate well through a modern lens. But yeah, most of these were bad.

Casey Affleck should get a pass for the Dunkin' commercial alone.

[@jacksonhart5961]

Joe Pesci should be high on the list. Threatening Sinead O Connor live on air.

To be fair, if the material was bad, that’s not the host’s fault; they don’t write the sketches themselves.

[@tanookimarketing]

Did you even watch the video? The sketch quality was rarely the issue. It was the persons acting ability and/or ego. Giving Elon, Paris Hilton, or Steven Seagal banger sketches would not have changed a single thing.

[@joelkweskin8545]

Why single out only the "bad" guest hosts for reading the cue cards? They ALL read the cue cards, every single cast member -- one of the dumbing down tendencies of SNL virtually throughout its existence. Check out most of the early sketch comedy shows -- Carol Burnett, Sid Caesar, Jackie Gleason, etc. -- all pros who learned their lines and delivered sketches in a more convincing, more professional way.

Martin was a great host though. His Stuart Smally skit was hilarious. Controversy isn’t bad at all.

[@pabulum28]

I'm not sure if on earlier videos whether I made this comment because this channel has done this topic in earlier uploads, but IMO Charles Grodin should have been Number One for this list (at least as sketch player here, aside from monologuing). Anyone who brings sketches to a screeching halt and has the other performers break character to complain in real time about him screwing up the skit cannot be worse (and it's not like a meta or fourth wall break thing on purpose with Grodin, and trying to make it into some kind of Andy Kaufman thing is a bad excuse also I think). Even Steven Seagal, Donald Trump, Al Sharpton had all kind of pulled off their sketches without having it crash and burn like Grodin did.
