Bill Hader hasn't been off of Saturday Night Live long, but a lot has happened since he left in 2013. Most notorious is the part where the show forgot to have a diverse cast, an issue Hader makes fun of in one of the promos for his hosting gig this weekend. 

In the first clip Hader asks chiseled SNL veteran Kenan Thompson what's changed since his departure, to which Thompson replies, "They renovated the bathrooms; there's spaghetti and meatballs in the cafeteria; and we got a ton of black people now." 

We give it 10/10. 

The rest of the spots are pretty meh—Hader doing an impression of Thompson (3/10); Hader playing the jock returning to his old stomping grounds (6/10); Hader showing off his music "talents" (5/10)—but there's a great inside joke (10/10) referencing Bill never being able to speak in "What Up with That." Hader only manages to get in his plug before Thompson takes up the duration of the spot reminiscing about and adding to all those times Hader had to remain silent. 

Hopefully that won't be the only joke brought back this weekend.
