Alec Baldwin is again returning to "Saturday Night Live" and this time he gets the coveted spot. The actor, who had run the show 14 times before, announced to a group of reporters at White House Correspondents' Dinner on Saturday, May 1 night that he will be hosting the season finale.

That would be the episode airing May 15, one week after Betty White makes her debut as a host of the show. The last time Baldwin was seen on the show was during 2009 Valentine's day celebration where he did a sketch with the Jonas Brothers. In one of the skits, he acted as a long-lost sibling of the brothers.
