As Amy Poehler and Maya Rudolph took the stage for a reprisal of their "Bronx Beat" sketch, there appeared to have been some mic issues.

At one point, viewers at home could also see a shadow of what seems to be a boom mic.

Live television!

Tonight's special will now end at around 11:15 p.m. ET, about 15 minutes later than expected, according to LateNighter.

The outlet said NBC alerted its affiliates of the overtime.

John Mulaney and friends returned to the "SNL" stage to sing about New York City again, this time poking fun at everything from former Mayor Rudy Giuliani to "Pizza rat."

As he mans a hot dog and heroin cart, he tells Pete Davidson and David Spade about the city's transformation across decades.

Maya Rudolph and Adam Driver, dressed as heroin and hot dog, respectively, then took the stage to sing.

Next Nathan Lane, who sang a song about cocaine and vodka to the tune of the "Lion King" song "Hakuna Matata."

As Mulaney talked about the '90s in New York City, he noted how Times Square went from "pimps to cartoon mascots." Dressed as the aforementioned pimp, Jason Sudeikis began singing in the crowd, alongside Will Forte, who was dressed as Elmo. Kristen Wiig also appeared in a M&M costume, signing a rendition of "I Dreamed a Dream" from "Les Miserables" to a confused Larry David.

Actor Jack Nicholson was once known for his courtside appearances at Los Angeles Lakers games, but those have become rare lately.

The 87-year-old had a two-year gap in game appearances when he returned to see the Lakers play in October 2023. Then he disappeared again, until 34-year-old daughter Lorraine posted an Instagram photo of Nicholson relaxing at home last month.

If there's one thing that will bring the star of "Chinatown" out, however, it's the celebration of "SNL's" 50th season. He appeared in the audience and made an on-air introduction, welcoming a musical performance by Adam Sandler.

Adam Sandler graced the stage with a guitar to perform a song dedicated to 50 years of "SNL."

The song included many inside jokes, including ones about how cast members couldn't use Lorne Michael's "little bathroom in the office" and asking the interns to get their laundry without realizing the intern was "Martin Scorsese's kid or Nora Ephron's kid or Randy Newman’s kid or whoever Lorne had dinner with on Wednesday night’s kid."

He mentioned cast members past and present while also shouting out behind-the-scenes folks, including Nurse Theresa (who provided Pepto Bismol to Sandler and cast) and "drunk Wall,y" who holds up cue cards (sometimes backward).

“Fifty years of the best times of our lives,” Sandler said at the end of the song. "Thank you, Lorne."

Sandler was introduced by Jack Nicholson.

Laraine Newman, who was part of the original cast of "SNL," appeared in a digital short to meet Pete Davidson's "Chad."

Newman asked him to put a spotlight on her so she could feel what it's like to walk on the "SNL" stage one more time.

It didn't go great.

He eventually got it, and Newman made sure he knew how lucky he was to work there.

He offered his usual answer: "OK."

The Rev. Al Sharpton has been at the center of some serious matters of race and justice in the United States. He's also a longtime friend of one of the country's engines of laughter, "SNL."

He mentioned cameos he's made on "Saturday Night Live" during his show, "PoliticsNation with Al Sharpton," earlier today on MSNBC. (Sharpton has also been portrayed on "SNL" by Kenan Thompson.)

Tonight he's in the house for the celebration, and he posted a shot with former cast member Eddie Murphy to X, calling the star "my friend."

Kate McKinnon, Meryl Streep, Pedro Pascal and Woody Harrelson brought back the popular "Close Encounter" sketch.

The group tried really hard not to break while getting questioned by Aidy Bryant and Jon Hamm about being abducted by aliens.

Bill Murray, a "Weekend Update" alum, joined Che and Jost to list off the top 10 anchors from the show's history. On his list:

1. Brian Doyle-Murray (Bill Murray's brother)
2. Norm Macdonald
3. Jane Curtin and Dan Aykroyd
4. Chevy Chase
5. Tiny Fey & Amy Poehler

Notably absent (and very much part of the bit): Jost.

Murray mentioned Che on a separate list of top Black "Weekend Update" hosts. (He was the lone one on the list.)
