'Saturday Night Live': Jack Black, Colman Domingo to Host in April

Black was first joined by his Don’t Worry, He Won’t Get Far on Foot co-star Jonah Hill, who sported a Five-Timers robe. “It is so good to see you. What have you been up to, man?” Black said, to which Hill joked, “Well, I’ve actually been working on Superbad 2!”

The two walked through a door to the Five-Timers lounge, which prompted Hill to tell Black, “Jack, we need your help. There’s something wrong with the Five-Timers Club. You see what I mean?”

“Yes, you’re right, it feels like there’s evil lurking around every corner,” Black said, before Tina Fey popped up. “Oh no, it’s just me! It’s just regular Tina Fey,” the 30 Rock star said.

“I wanted to congratulate you on a historic night,” she said, before joking, “You’re officially the first Black in the Five-Timers club.” Black questioned what had become of the club, which Fey explained that “it’s seen better days.”

“What started off as a one-off joke in a Tom Hanks monologue has been brought back so many times that it has literally been run into the ground,” Fey said. “For example, and this is true, this is my fifth Five-Timers club stint.”

“A double five-timer — is that why you’re wearing that special jacket?” the Minecraft Movie actor asked.

“No, this is actually my First-Timer’s jacket from SNL UK,” Fey replied, referencing her becoming the first person to host the British iteration. “I think it’s made out of Paddington,” she added, which led to Candice Bergen, who is notably the first woman to join SNL‘s Five-Timers club, joining in on the fun.

“You know, I spent a night with Paddington back in 1700. Let’s just say we found something that he likes way more than marmalade,” Bergen said. “What? A bitch can party!”

Behind the bar was Melissa McCarthy, who replied, “Speaking of party, does anyone know where I can just get a drink? I can’t find one. All they got is warm cans of John Mulaney’s beer.”

“Those are non-alcoholic, right?” Fey added, to which the Bridesmaids star offered, “Not if you fill them with vodka!”

Jack White, who served as the night’s musical guest, also appeared in Black’s monologue. Hill jokingly referred to him as “my hero, Professor Snape,” to which the Anaconda actor corrected him: “It’s five-time musical guest and my partner tonight, Jack White!”

White himself joined a different Five-Timers club on Saturday night, with his April 4 appearance marking his fifth time as a solo SNL musical guest. “Thank you, but, unfortunately, I have to be going,” he told Black, who jokingly added, “Well, the five-time musical guests only get their parking validated for 15 minutes. So, I have to move my hearse.”

“Enough is enough,” Black proclaimed. “It’s time to fix this place the only way I know how: With the power of rock.” He then launched into a rendition of “Seven Nation Army,” the White Stripes (which is made up of Jack and Meg White) track.

“We’ve got Melissa, Candice Bergen, Jonah Hill and Mrs. Tina Fey, it’s my nightmare blunt rotation, and I think it’s gonna save the day,” Black sang, before being given his own Five-Timers club jacket. “And when I put this jacket on, you know, I feel like I am ready to host!”
