Saturday Night Live paid tribute to Rob Reiner, one of the first hosts of the sketch comedy series, less than a week after the iconic director’s death.

On Saturday, December 20, SNL honored Reiner after he was killed on December 14 alongside his wife, Michele Singer Reiner. The director, 78, and his spouse, 68, were found dead in their Los Angeles home after an alleged argument with their son, Nick Reiner. Nick has since been arrested and charged with two counts of murder.
