Martin Short brings holiday joy (and roasts) to his musical SNL monologue

Martin Short’s “Saturday Night Live” monologue is a musical ode to needing drugs to getting through Christmas anxiety.

Martin Short celebrated his fifth time hosting Saturday Night Live with a monologue brimming with musical holiday cheer.

The Only Murders in the Building star kicked things off with a conventional monologue, roasting everything from Cybertrucks to his co-star Steve Martin.

“He would have been here tonight, but he had a conflict with me not wanting him to be here,” Short said. “And besides, it’s rehearsal week for The Masked Singer.”

But when SNL‘s cast members beg Short to cure their holiday anxieties, the host is all too happy to oblige — in song, of course. He bursts into a parody of “We Need a Little Christmas,” telling the audience they “need a new prescription” to get through the holiday season.

Come for Short’s boundless energy and singing, stay for him throwing a child off of Santa’s lap and roasting Lorne Michaels. (“You smell wonderful, I didn’t know Jack Daniels made cologne.”) Plus, after a week of fighting with Jimmy Fallon, the pair reconcile with a passionate makeout session. It’s a Christmas miracle!
