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.
@@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 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.
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
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.
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.
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
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😎🎄
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!
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
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.
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
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.
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.
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.
I go back every now then to watchThe Donald Glover/Childish Gambino episode he was hilarious. I looked the video up just to see if he made the list. The Jurassic Park lawyer skit makes me laugh regardless how many times I watch it.
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
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.
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
John Mulaney too low this is an outrage reee
#1
Mulaney and Adam driver r my favorites
Agreed!!
i agree wholeheartedly
Not rly there’s a lot of good hosts
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
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 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 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!
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
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
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.
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
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
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
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!
Jim Carrey ??
Chris Rock ??
Both times Rock hosted was awful!! His career and Fargo season 4 will meet an ultimate demise soon!!
I love Christopher Walken, especially The Continental 🤣
Actually this whole list just made me smile! So many great talents
Paul Rudd !!!!! No need to say anything more 💞💞.. also Bill Hader 💕💕💕💛
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.
Kumail Nanjiani was also pretty great
Bill Hader is just the best ❤️
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!
My favorite host of SNL is scarlett johansson
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
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
paul rudd was easily the best host. his rendition of ode to tracking #'s is the best sketch ever
Ryan Gosling #19????
No freaking way!!!! Close encounters is one of the all time greats
MORE COWBELL! my ex and daughters father used to constantly walk around shouting MORE COWBELL LOL
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
Adam Driver's Career Day skit is my favorite skit ever!
You guys did my boy John dirty putting him at 16. He deserves to be much higher
17:16 - I was waiting for "The Continental". I love Christopher Walken! ❤️
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😎🎄
Steve Martin is the epitome of the term "has hosted so many times you could mistake him as a cast member"
Adam Driver, hands down.
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.
#1 should be Mulaney or Driver
Amazing video watchmojo nice edit
God, Diner Lobster is just so fun
Adam Driver, Bill Hader, Justin Timberlake, Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling are my TOP FIVE
Personally, I would leave out former cast members as they definitely have an advantage over most hosts.
These hosts are all awesome but I also loved Bruno Mars' sketches. He's hilarious!
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!
Jim Carrey should have been included. Happy to see Tom Hanks as number 1. He always delivers.

How about Benedict Cumberbatch?! He was one of the best!
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.
This was a good episode, just needed a little more Cowbell.
Rudd and Fey are my favorite people, in general
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!
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?
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.
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
Phoebe Waller-Bridge should have at least been in the "Honorable Mentions". From monologue, to every sketch she appeared in, she nailed it.
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.
Y'all forget Jim Carrey?
I just chuckled at Clint Eastwood in Jurassic Park.
The continental is one of my all time favorite sketches!
Usually when people rate other people I disagree on everything but this list was perfect!
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
Your POV: you're the first one here
Reality:There are about 1,000 other people
John Mulaney has taken over the late 2010s-early 2020s on SNL
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.
Alec Baldwin is funny, especially his older SNL skits, but I would say Adam Driver is the funniest host and most talented.
Christopher Walken #5. He is my favorite!
My favorite is Justin Timberlake. But this was a fun list, thanks!
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.
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.
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.
The Mulaney glow-up is everything to me, from script writer to five time show host
Donald Glover deserves more than an honorable mention
Adam Driver, Emma Stone and Chance the rapper were my favorite hosts😁😆
Legendary video as always
Scarlett shouldve been at the least an honorable mention
I would have hoped for 20 that weren't cast members, seems like they should be separate lists.
goslings Papayrus skit makes me laugh every single time . I love the Santa one too
good list! Can't argue with any of those!
NICE!
That Melissa McCarthy Supermarket Sweep clip made me crack up. I would' like to see more of it.
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.
Kim k just hosted last week and I was super surprised how good she did. Her writers and delivery were very funny
Me watching baywatch then seeing the rock in the thumbnail and in the movie cool 😎
Chance the Rapper was surprisingly great too!
I go back every now then to watchThe Donald Glover/Childish Gambino episode he was hilarious. I looked the video up just to see if he made the list. The Jurassic Park lawyer skit makes me laugh regardless how many times I watch it.
Jon Hamm and Justin Timberlake have been my favorite hosts-natural comedic timing.
THE ROCK IS ALSO A GENTLE BIG GUYYYY
THE ROCK IS ALSO THE BEST HOST
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
Would've put JT as number one with all of his -villes and Lonely Island songs.
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.
"more cow bell"... love it
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.
How is Tina Fey so beautiful? 😻😻😻
Asked Tina Fey
Harry Styles??
Loved that undercover boss skit with Adam Driver
Omg...that lobster sketch...lolololol
The Pumpkins sketch is the last time I’ve cried laughing at SNL
