The comedian capped off his hosting debut with a heartfelt song about his late friend and co-star, who died in 1997.
By Bethonie Butler Bethonie Butler Reporter covering television and pop culture Email Bio Follow May 5 at 6:00 AM Adam Sandler’s “Saturday Night Live” hosting debut was full of callbacks to his time on the show. He sang his opening monologue. He was greeted by SNL cast members and alums attempting some of his most famous characters in an entertaining, if predictable, sketch. And he brought back his beloved Opera Man during Weekend Update.
Sandler and Farley, who died of a drug overdose in 1997, were on “Saturday Night Live" together in the early 90s. They, along with Chris Rock and David Spade, shared an office. And as Sandler revealed in his musical monologue, he and Farley were also fired from the show around the same time.
