Martin Short Roasts Colin Jost, Steve Martin and Al Pacino in ‘SNL’ Teaser

No one is safe during the final Saturday Night Live show in 2024.

In the first promo for the December 21 episode, host Martin Short is getting into the Christmas spirit with some generous gift giving – but only his “famous friends” made the cut.

As Ashley Padilla, Michael Longfellow and Devon Walker walked into Studio 8H as the teaser began, Short, 74, stood in front of an impressive Christmas display and offered a gift to each of the cast members.

“I’ve given each of you something special,” he told Padilla, Longfellow, and Walker, who opened boxes only to find them empty. “And what’s special is a job wrapping all my presents for all my famous friends, which of course you three aren’t.”

Short then went through a few of the gifts he needs help wrapping for some of his A-list friends, including Colin Jost, Steve Martin and Al Pacino.

“Now this book is for Colin Jost,” Short said, holding up a self-help style book called How to develop a personality. Jost, 42, needs it because, in Short’s words, “Cocaine calls him ‘the challenge.'”

Pacino, 84, was next, and Short had a baby rattle for him. “Now this baby rattle is for Al Pacino. Not his baby,” he said, referring to the 18-month-old the actor welcomed with ex-girlfriend Noor Alfallah in June 2023 at age 84. “It’s actually for Al.”

For Martin, 79, Short got sunscreen. “It’s SPF Infinity because let’s face it, Steve is whiter than a Coldplay meet and greet,” he teased. “His blood type is mayonnaise.”

Short’s three children Katherine, Oliver and Henry, who he shares with his late wife Nancy Dolman, received the final round of gifts when Short held up a pair of glossy photos of himself and revealed they were for his children.

He then wished Padilla, 31, Longfellow, 30, and Walker, 33, a “Merry Christmas,” but when they tried to go in for a hug, he freaked out and told them, “Relax!”

“Don’t touch me,” Short demanded as the campaign ended. “It’s Merry Christmas – from a distance.”

Saturday’s show will mark the third time Short has hosted SNL solo, and his fifth time as host overall.

Hozier will be the musical guest for the episode, marking the Irish singer’s second appearance.
