Back to his Old Stompin’ Ground: Saturday Night Live alum Jimmy Fallon will host the sketch comedy classic for the very first time on Dec. 17, NBC said Monday.
“I’ve never forgotten where I came from,” Fallon joked this week. “That’s why I’m so incredibly honored to be hosting the Saturday Night Times program December 17th on HGTV.”

This just in: Saturday Night Live producer Lorne Michaels has confirmed to reporters that Alec Baldwin will host SNL’s 37th season premiere, airing Sept. 24.

The second episode of the season will be hosted by Bridesmaids star and Mike & Molly Emmy nominee Melissa McCarthy.
