Sat Dec 21 06:00:00 UTC 2024: ## Martin Short to Host Hilarious Final SNL Episode of 2024
**New York, NY** – Martin Short will host the final *Saturday Night Live* episode of 2024 this Saturday, December 21st, and a new promo video promises a night of laughs. In the clip, Short playfully gifts the SNL cast empty boxes, revealing his “special” present is the task of wrapping gifts for his famous friends. His comedic jabs included a “How to Develop a Personality” book for Colin Jost, a baby rattle for Al Pacino, and “SPF infinity” sunscreen for his *Only Murders in the Building* co-star Steve Martin, quipping that Martin is “whiter than a Coldplay meet-and-greet.” The promo culminates with Short comically rejecting the cast’s Christmas hugs, declaring “Merry Christmas from a distance!” Irish singer-songwriter Hozier will serve as musical guest. The episode airs at 11:30 p.m. ET on NBC and will be available to stream on Peacock.
