The Early Years of SNL: S05E01 Steve Martin/Blondie (10/13/79)
Tuesday, 16 September, 2025
SNL returns with Steve Martin making history as the first host to kick off a second season premiere! Saturday Night Live holds nothing back as they kick off Season 5 with not only one of the biggest comedy stars on the planet but one of the hottest (and hippest) musical acts in Blondie.Despite being Martin's 7th time hosting, this episode struggles to find its footing. The show is finding it difficult to establish a new identity without the presence of two of its biggest stars and those cast members still there have started to spread themselves thin with outside projects. New writers are searching to find their place and as well as compete for newly available screentime with themselves and someone who may or may not be a new cast member.The S5 premiere may raise more questions than it answers but one thing is clear - the show is back and taking big swings. It is a pivotal moment in the show’s evolution and only time will tell how well they pay off.---------------------------------Subscribe today!
