I watched SNL last night and they started out by explaining that the format was changed at the last minute due to Covid. It was still funny (most of it) and Paul Rudd the guest host got his "Fifth Host" jacket. They're making it a thing now for anyone who hosts the show 5 times, gets to join the "Fifth Host" club and they get a special jacket. Tina Fey and Tom Hanks came on and gave Paul Rudd his jacket.
