Returning to host SNL for the fourth time, Adam Driver delivers a hilarious Christmas-themed opening monologue where he shares his unconventional wish list with Santa. The segment showcases Driver's impressive piano skills as he accompanies himself while maintaining intense, unbroken eye contact with the camera throughout. His comedic Christmas requests include pointed commentary about Star Wars ("I didn't kill Han Solo, wokeness killed Han Solo"), a darkly funny request about couples who make prank videos ("Can you kill those people?"), and musings about eggnog. The monologue concludes with Driver performing a straight-faced rendition of "O Holy Night" while continuing his signature unwavering stare at the camera. The performance highlights Driver's versatility, deadpan comedic timing, musical talent, and natural charisma that has made him one of SNL's most beloved recurring hosts.
