NBC aired the three and a half hour 40th Anniversary special for their beloved late night sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live last night, and it was surely an affair to remember, with memorable appearances by comedians who got their start on the show, such as Eddie Murphy, Bill Murray, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake kicked off the show with a memorable cold open, which is just one of many video highlights you can watch below, in case you missed the special or just want to relive it all over again.

Saturday Night Live's 40th Anniversary Special was watched by 23.1 million viewers last night, making it the network's most-watched primetime program in over 10 years, excluding post-Super Bowl programs. The ratings were the highest since the 2004 series finale of ER, which was watched by 23.9 million viewers. Also, excluding the Super Bowl and major awards ceremonies, 40th Anniversary Special was the most-watched program on all of the major networks since a September 2011 episode of CBS' Two and a Half Men, where 28.7 million viewers watched Ashton Kutcher's first episode.

Take a look at the video highlights below, which includes a reunion of The Californians, a new Wayne's World sketch with Dana Carvey and Mike Myers, a special Weekend Update with Tina Fey, Amy Poehler and Jane Curtin, a new Digital Short entitled "That's Where You Break" starring Andy Samberg and Adam Sandler and the return of Celebrity Jeopardy with Will Ferrell.
