Legendary comedian Eddie Murphy is scheduled to host Saturday Night Live for the first time in 37 years.
Murphy, 58, was a cast member on SNL from 1980 to 1984, where he was credited by many with revitalizing the show with characters like “Buckwheat,” “Gumby,” and “Mr. Robinson,” a spoof of Mister Roger’s Neighborhood. He was 18 years old when he joined the cast. The only other time he hosted the show was in 1982, when he became the first regular cast member to host before leaving the show.
