Updated with video: Maya Rudolph returned as host on Saturday Night Live, reminiscing about her days as a cast member on the NBC late-night sketch show, while looking to the future.
“It makes me so happy to be here in the place that I love, I can’t tell you, especially after a year that has been, shall we say, a real kick in the clam,” Rudolph said in her opening monologue. “But it feels like we’re starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel. People are getting the vaccine. My parents got theirs; I’m really happy to report that. It’s Spring, so goodbye sweater weather and hello leather weather?”
Some viewers might know her, she said, because of her nine seasons on the show, between 2000 and 2007. “Some of you may know me by the name ‘Mommy’ because I gave birth to you,” she added.
