In his opening monologue, first-time SNL host Edward Norton talks about his 13 years of preparation - plus, Alec Baldwin and Miley Cyrus make a surprise appearance to provide their hosting advice. Check it out below!

Norton hosted Saturday Night Live for the first time last night, with the electric lady herself, Janelle Monae, serving as the musical guest.

Since its inception in 1975, "SNL" has launched the careers of many of the brightest comedy performers of their generation; and, as The New York Times noted on the occasion of the show's Emmy-winning 25th Anniversary special in 1999: "In Defiance of both time and show business convention, 'SNL' is still the most pervasive influence on the art of comedy in contemporary culture." At the close of the century, "Saturday Night Live" placed seventh on Entertainment Weekly's list of the Top 100 Entertainers of the past fifty years.
