Sudeikis was originally hired as a writer for the show in 2003 before being brought on as a cast member from 2005-2013. Saturday marked the first time hosting for the Horrible Bosses star, right on the heels of his double Emmy win for Ted Lasso.

During his opening monologue, Sudeikis remarked on his journey from the writers room to being an Emmy winner.

“It’s so neat to be a small part of this show’s amazing history,” he said. “A history that was fueled for its first 25 years by cocaine and adrenaline, it’s next 15 years by Starbucks and unhealthy comparisons and the last six years by Adderall and fear.”
