.nbcsnl will re-air Betty White's episode as host tonight to pay tribute to the beloved actress and comedian.
Following the New Year's Eve passing of actress and comedian Betty White, the long-running sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live has announced that today they will remember White in their own way. In the absence of a new episode to air on New Year's Day, they will instead reair the May 8, 2010 episode, which White hosted alongside musical guest Jay-Z.
White appeared during the show's 35th season as part of their Mother's Day episode, which also featured guest appearances from former cast members Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch, Ana Gasteyer, Maya Rudolph, and Molly Shannon.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Another, fondly-remembered sketch she appeared in was a reprisal of Shannon and Gasteyer's "Delicious Dish", where the two play the hosts of an NPR cooking program. "Delicious Dish" is probably better remembered as the "Schewddy Balls" sketch featuring Alec Baldwin, some holiday treats, and an entire conversation loaded with innuendo.
The late 00's launched White back into the public eye in a major way. Her SNL gig was preceded by an appearance in a Snickers commercial and by her role as Grandma Annie in the Ryan Reynolds and Sandara Bullock rom-com The Proposal. Incidentally, Reynolds himself hosted SNL in season 35 as well, alongside Lady Gaga on October 3, 2009.
Saturday Night Live airs on NBC Saturday nights at 11:30 pm ET/8:30 pm PT, and can be simultaneously streamed on Peacock.Read Next Share Share Tweet Email Related Topics About The Author Arezou Amin Arezou Amin is a writer for Collider.
