Later on in the episode, the comedian joined SNL‘s coveted Five-Timers Club and was initiated in a hilarious sketch that featured a host of comedy greats including Conan O’Brien, Paul Rudd, Tina Fey, Steve Martin and more.
Referencing how his fifth time hosting the show was limited due to coronavirus concerns, Rudd shared that Mulaney’s celebration was not only about the comedian, but also about him “to a degree as well because, you know, my party was cancelled due to laziness.”
Rudd joked, “Not to be a total b–ch, but my Five-Timers show in December was going to be a lot better. That is, until the whole cast decided to call out sick.”
In the end, the Anchorman actor had to surrender his Five-Timers Club velvet jacket to Mulaney, adding, “Oh well, it was fun while it lasted!”
