@@therealmagicpant Yeah, I agree. Same with Bill Burr. Comedians are best when they don't succumb to political correctness. The best comedy is the stuff that's a bit dark when you really think about it, but on a surface level is just absolutely hilarious.
I'm just gonna say Tina Fey is forever one of my favourite people on SNL. She was a great writer, she did awesome sketches(the weekend updates with her and Amy Poheler were the best). And when she came back as a host she was still super awesome at it.
I kind of feel it’s a bit unfair to include former cast members in this list since they would be familiar and comfortable with the way the show operates.
Eddie Murphy, Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey, Steve Martin, Dave Chappelle, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader, Maya Rudolph, Paul Rudd, Emma Stone, Will Ferrell, Melissa McCarthy, Dwayne Johnson and other celebrities did a very good job as SNL hosts.
The best SNL host of the century is Tom Hanks because he is very cool and a friendly actor and he did many jokes in the show and i like when he acting David S.Pumpkins in Halloween in the Haunted Elevator
When I heard that Adam Driver was hosting I almost didn't watch it I almost screwed up big time for me he's the biggest surprisingly good host ever he's now one of my favorites of all time
Man....they were all amazing...so many laughs just seeing the picks and instantly remembering their iconic skits...so good....Anne Hathaway, Scarlett Johansson and Harry Styles should've been on this list too somehow.
I loved the Pizza Eater! I think PJ doesn't fit in, Arlene, and the Ranch Dressing sketches were also great. It's almost impossible to find a bad sketch she has been in.
Norm MacDonald should be on that list just for his first time hosting after he got fired monologue. Other than that basically I would maybe put a couple people in different places but they would all be on the list. Good job.
20: Zach Galifianakis 19: Ryan Gosling 18: Emma Stone 17: Paul Rudd 16: John Mulroney 15: Will Ferrell 14: Kristen Wig 13: Bill Hader 12: Melissa McCarthy 11: John Goodman 10: Steve Martin 9: Dwayne Johnson 8: Adam Driver 7: Dave Chappelle 6: Drew Barrymore 5: Christopher Walken 4: Justin Timberlake 3: Tina Fey 2: Alec Baldwin Honorbale Mentions: Larry David Donald Glover Natalie Portman Betty White Eddie Murphy 1: Tom Hanks
I was watching last night’s episode with Kristen Wiig hosting when this came in... Solid list especially top 5. When Eddy Murphy hosted last year it was the best show they had in years😎🎄
There should be a surprisingly good hosts catagory, I'd put Harry Styles and Chance the Rapper on it. I almost didn't watch those episodes because I thought they'd be terrible.
These were the BEST hosts! I loved each & every one of them…..its so hard to put just one as my favorite! I would have thought Steve martin as the best…but omg… Adam Baldwin, Dave chapelle….my homeboy Justin, Drew, Kristen, …..they all made my day!! Thank you for sharing!
I wonder what the list would be if it was best snl hosts who were never cast memebers. It’s more impressive if they weren’t members Regardless, this is a great list. I forgot how much I liked Natalie Portman
Tom Hanks is an idol of mine. I didn't really have a dad growing up so.... Tom Hanks was who I looked up to. Always a kind person in movies... Santa.... I mean he is all I had as a dad figure which is probably why I didn't end up more fucked up.
Like David Spade said when asked about Steven Seagal's hosting (worst one in SNL history), hosts need to be able to take themselves lightly and take a joke. Then it will become fun.
IMO the Bills, Murray and Hader, are the best to ever come from SNL. Hader can do just about anything he’s so talented. Murray is obviously one of the best ever and his lore of being the greatest human being ever is legit. You know you’re great when the South Park guys love you. Hader worked on SP and Murray is beloved by Trey and Matt.
HM to Adam Sandler's return: Chad's father Brad, Romano tours, Sandler family reunion, Opera Man at WU, C. Farley's song & "I was fired" monologue Also Scarlett Johansson. Could be great see her at WU or a sketch with Colin
Who's YOUR favorite "SNL" host of the century?
Tom Hanks
nobody in specific
My baby Jake
I don’t have one.
@@nickp2271 that is fair
adam driver always steals the show in all of the skits. he’s definitely the number one for me.
oil barron, science teacher and undercover boss STILL make me laugh after so many rewatches! 🤣 He was a big surprise how funny he was
He's definitely the one that was surprisingly amazing I almost didn't watch it but was shocked how amazing he was
Him and mulaney r my favorites
Could not agree more.. Definitely my #1 that I did NOT see coming but Justin and Jimmy together are my runner ups..
Same! he surprised the hell out of me.. I'm a huge star wars fan and only seen him in that and snl opened my eyes of how amazing he is..
Natalie Portman deserves more than just an honorable mention her 2006 episode was one of the funniest of the century. Betty White was robbed as well
John Mulaney too low this is an outrage reee
#1
Mulaney and Adam driver r my favorites
Agreed!!
Not rly there’s a lot of good hosts
Where would you put him?
I think it should be tradition for Dave Chappelle to host after every presidential election.
I agree
Yessir preach. This mans job is a hostage negotiator for real lol.
I could listen to him talk all day. He's comparable to George Carlin to me. Speaks what he feels and doesn't hold back.
@@therealmagicpant Yeah, I agree. Same with Bill Burr. Comedians are best when they don't succumb to political correctness. The best comedy is the stuff that's a bit dark when you really think about it, but on a surface level is just absolutely hilarious.
It would be great if he could reprise his Rick James skit. Unfortunately Charlie Murphy passed away. Wouldn't be the same
I'm just gonna say Tina Fey is forever one of my favourite people on SNL. She was a great writer, she did awesome sketches(the weekend updates with her and Amy Poheler were the best).
And when she came back as a host she was still super awesome at it.
And not to forget she made a show inspired by it which was so cool itself 🤩
I kind of feel it’s a bit unfair to include former cast members in this list since they would be familiar and comfortable with the way the show operates.
Agreed.
Great point!
Mulaney at 16 is absolutely horrid
Dudes top two and he ain’t two
I think that's pushing it, but to each their own
I love Mulaney. Him and Adam driver r awesome
Mulaney loses points for already been part of the writer's team. He knows the formula and doesn't go into it blind like the other hosts.
Naw he’s too vanilla
Watch pranksters with Christopher Walken and you'll see he's the true #1
Eddie Murphy, Alec Baldwin, Tina Fey, Steve Martin, Dave Chappelle, Kristen Wiig, Bill Hader, Maya Rudolph, Paul Rudd, Emma Stone, Will Ferrell, Melissa McCarthy, Dwayne Johnson and other celebrities did a very good job as SNL hosts.
Justin Timberlake, Adam Driver
I have LOVED Anne Hathaway the times she has hosted. Her Katie Holmes, being interviewed by Miley Cyrus (Vanessa Bayer) was superb.
Those holes are garbage
@@ricardoangel9440 roles
@@paulamra1ify eitherway
The best Melissa McCarthy skit is the one where she plays Michael Che’s step mom on weekend update. Makes me laugh every time 😂
I replay it every month. I always cry at the last bit when she reads the prompter 😭
Yes!! I love that one
Bill is way too low! He needs to be way higher up! Still, I almost cried when they said his name. I love that man so much
The best SNL host of the century is Tom Hanks because he is very cool and a friendly actor and he did many jokes in the show and i like when he acting David S.Pumpkins in Halloween in the Haunted Elevator
@Clips and Tributes i see your videos there are very cool and interesting
It took a few viewings before I began to enjoy David S. Pumpkins!
David Pumpkins showed an almost-"Philadelphia"-level commitment to a role.
Harry Styles was awesome on SNL
I know right, I’m pretty sad that they didn’t even make him an honourable mention
I’m just here to see where Adam Driver landed
it better be top 5 at least
Driver and Mulaney r great
same here
Too God damn low is where!
Actually this whole list just made me smile! So many great talents
I love Christopher Walken, especially The Continental 🤣
Bill Hader is just the best ❤️
My favorite host of SNL is scarlett johansson
Jim Carrey ??
Chris Rock ??
Both times Rock hosted was awful!! His career and Fargo season 4 will meet an ultimate demise soon!!
Steve Martin is the epitome of the term "has hosted so many times you could mistake him as a cast member"
Paul Rudd !!!!! No need to say anything more 💞💞.. also Bill Hader 💕💕💕💛
When I heard that Adam Driver was hosting I almost didn't watch it I almost screwed up big time for me he's the biggest surprisingly good host ever he's now one of my favorites of all time
Tom hanks is the best in SNL and the greatest actor in the world.
Thanks for putting Tom Hanks as top 1
Greatest actor in our time maybe
paul rudd was easily the best host. his rendition of ode to tracking #'s is the best sketch ever
Man....they were all amazing...so many laughs just seeing the picks and instantly remembering their iconic skits...so good....Anne Hathaway, Scarlett Johansson and Harry Styles should've been on this list too somehow.
Melissa McCarthy should be higher on this list! Lulu Diamonds, Coach Sheila, and the Pizza Eater are three of my favorites!
I loved the Pizza Eater! I think PJ doesn't fit in, Arlene, and the Ranch Dressing sketches were also great. It's almost impossible to find a bad sketch she has been in.
Omg, I love Lulu Diamonds!
Ryan Gosling #19????
No freaking way!!!! Close encounters is one of the all time greats
You guys did my boy John dirty putting him at 16. He deserves to be much higher
Kumail Nanjiani was also pretty great
Adam Driver, Bill Hader, Justin Timberlake, Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling are my TOP FIVE
#1 should be Mulaney or Driver
SNL are so weird but truthful acts, lovely, unstoppable amusing and hilarious.
Nah
What u talkin bout ? They skipped jim carrey and put adam driver. Lol
Jim Carrey should have been included. Happy to see Tom Hanks as number 1. He always delivers.
MORE COWBELL! my ex and daughters father used to constantly walk around shouting MORE COWBELL LOL
Adam Driver's Career Day skit is my favorite skit ever!
I agree with most of the choices, but Jon Hamm definitely needs to be here. He's been fantastic all 3 times he's hosted.
17:16 - I was waiting for "The Continental". I love Christopher Walken! ❤️
Adam Driver, hands down.
Personally, I would leave out former cast members as they definitely have an advantage over most hosts.
John Mulaney has taken over the late 2010s-early 2020s on SNL
Norm MacDonald should be on that list just for his first time hosting after he got fired monologue. Other than that basically I would maybe put a couple people in different places but they would all be on the list. Good job.
Your POV: you're the first one here
Reality:There are about 1,000 other people
The Mulaney glow-up is everything to me, from script writer to five time show host
Of course Tom Hanks won, he wins everything, but he also deserves it
Tom Hanks deserves nothing... thank you for giving away the end.
It’s awesome how he constantly pays people to be keep quiet whenever his scumbag son does something wrong.
Adam driver is one of my favorites

Rudd and Fey are my favorite people, in general
Not even an HM for the Sandman? That was one of the best SNLs in recent memory and his Chris Farley song was something special.
Melissa McCarthy by a mile🖤
Yup. My favorite single episode of the last 20 years was one she hosted -- I remember she was in every sketch, & every sketch was laugh outloud funny.
@@tomsinsky5548 was it the one she was Spicey?
I was watching last night’s episode with Kristen Wiig hosting when this came in...
Solid list especially top 5. When Eddy Murphy hosted last year it was the best show they had in years😎🎄
Amazing video watchmojo nice edit
God, Diner Lobster is just so fun
This was a good episode, just needed a little more Cowbell.
Donald Glover deserves more than an honorable mention
These hosts are all awesome but I also loved Bruno Mars' sketches. He's hilarious!
adam driver and the rock better be top 5. they both ran that shit when they showed up.
edit: I A N G R Y
Tom Hanks: Canada's Step-Dad
Depending on when you're born, Mike Myers or Ryan Reynolds will always be our REAL dad.
Jon Hamm and Justin Timberlake have been my favorite hosts-natural comedic timing.
Alec Baldwin is funny, especially his older SNL skits, but I would say Adam Driver is the funniest host and most talented.
How about Benedict Cumberbatch?! He was one of the best!
Timberlake should have been in top 3 imo, but as a die hard SNL fan for 20+ years, I’m not mad at this list at all.
Great video to watch first thing in the morning to get your day started off with a laugh it makes for a better day 😀
Glad to hear it!
There should be a surprisingly good hosts catagory, I'd put Harry Styles and Chance the Rapper on it. I almost didn't watch those episodes because I thought they'd be terrible.
Adam Driver and James Franco are great hosts
These were the BEST hosts! I loved each & every one of them…..its so hard to put just one as my favorite! I would have thought Steve martin as the best…but omg… Adam Baldwin, Dave chapelle….my homeboy Justin, Drew, Kristen, …..they all made my day!! Thank you for sharing!
Adam Driver, Emma Stone and Chance the rapper were my favorite hosts😁😆
Phoebe Waller-Bridge should have at least been in the "Honorable Mentions". From monologue, to every sketch she appeared in, she nailed it.
I think one of the best and a big surprise was Kristen Stewart, I did not expect her to be as funny as she was.
I wonder what the list would be if it was best snl hosts who were never cast memebers. It’s more impressive if they weren’t members
Regardless, this is a great list. I forgot how much I liked Natalie Portman
Y'all forget Jim Carrey?
I haven’t watched the video yet but if Bruno Mars doesn’t show up on this list as the most unexpected comedy goldmine in SNL history I’m suing
Scarlett shouldve been at the least an honorable mention
I just chuckled at Clint Eastwood in Jurassic Park.
I never watched the whole episode, but I feel like Margot Robbie's role in the Librarian sketch should at least earn her an honourable mention.
Usually when people rate other people I disagree on everything but this list was perfect!
The continental is one of my all time favorite sketches!
My favorite is Justin Timberlake. But this was a fun list, thanks!
my two favorite hosts are: Lin-Manuel Miranda and Betty White
I would have hoped for 20 that weren't cast members, seems like they should be separate lists.
Tom Hanks is an idol of mine. I didn't really have a dad growing up so.... Tom Hanks was who I looked up to. Always a kind person in movies... Santa.... I mean he is all I had as a dad figure which is probably why I didn't end up more fucked up.
THE ROCK IS ALSO THE BEST HOST
Great list! But I think Chance the Rapper deserves an honorable mention. He was amazing, and I hope he gets the ...Chance...to host again.
Like David Spade said when asked about Steven Seagal's hosting (worst one in SNL history), hosts need to be able to take themselves lightly and take a joke. Then it will become fun.
Christopher Walken #5. He is my favorite!
IMO the Bills, Murray and Hader, are the best to ever come from SNL. Hader can do just about anything he’s so talented. Murray is obviously one of the best ever and his lore of being the greatest human being ever is legit. You know you’re great when the South Park guys love you. Hader worked on SP and Murray is beloved by Trey and Matt.
The Pumpkins sketch is the last time I’ve cried laughing at SNL
Chance the Rapper was surprisingly great too!
Legendary video as always
Speaking of Ryan gosling, I came from the future to say that he will do a Beavis and Butthead skit that is HILARIOUS
Driver is my personal favorite. He stands out in all of his skits.
good list! Can't argue with any of those!
NICE!
Kim k just hosted last week and I was super surprised how good she did. Her writers and delivery were very funny
Not including Peyton Manning on this list completely takes away all its credibility.
HM to Adam Sandler's return: Chad's father Brad, Romano tours, Sandler family reunion, Opera Man at WU, C. Farley's song & "I was fired" monologue
Also Scarlett Johansson. Could be great see her at WU or a sketch with Colin
THE ROCK IS ALSO A GENTLE BIG GUYYYY
I actually wish Jake Gyllenhaal would just RETURN to SNL. His hosting gig in 2007 was actually pretty good.
Every time I hear John Mulaey speak I keep want to yell “Andrew, Andrew, Andreeeeww”
That Melissa McCarthy Supermarket Sweep clip made me crack up. I would' like to see more of it.
goslings Papayrus skit makes me laugh every single time . I love the Santa one too
