This past year has proven to be one of the most intriguing in Saturday Night Live‘s history, as not only did Jason Reitman helm a biopic of the comedy sketch show’s first-ever episode, but it also celebrated its 50th anniversary with an over-three-hour-long special to commemorate the occasion. Featuring a mix of reprised sketches, new ones, and looks back at the show’s past, it proved to be a mostly charming and funny celebration of the show’s legacy.
