It was Justin Timberlake's fifth time hosting Saturday Night Live last night, and the singer brought his Suit & Tie to knock it out of a star-studded park, notes the Hollywood Reporter, which calls the episode "the biggest of 2013." In his opening monologue, he was joined by fellow five-time hosts Alec Baldwin, Tom Hanks, Chevy Chase, Candace Bergen, Paul Simon, and Steve Martin—with the latter chiding Timberlake for not being able to play the banjo. Dan Akroyd and Martin Short also appeared in the sketch. Hilarity, Andy Samberg, and an appearance by the Three Amigos ensued during the show. TMZ notes, meanwhile, that Timberlake took a shot right back at Kanye West after the rapper dissed Suit & Tie. Over at Huffington Post, Mike Ryan has his scorecard for the evening.
