This made my heart so happy. I love his expression at the very beginning that pretty much said "I'm a grown-ass man, let's do this shit."

This made me laugh and cry... Truly cry... Seeing Mr. Sandler reprise his character, Opera Man... One of the very few SNL moments that made me feel I was back in the good olde days... Thank you, Adam... Even if it was just for a brief moment in time taking me back home, I thank you...

Opera man was delightful! Only thing missing was Kevin Nelan

Operaman is one of the best characters ever in SNL history.

Where I live would be 100 times better with Operman

I love how Operaman is always showered with red roses at the end :)

Wow we really missed out on 24 years of Sandler on the show! All other major cast have come back to promote their movies or shows multiple times. Even if he just came back 5 times during the last 24 years it would be like an extra season of material from him. This was gold to me though cuz I would watch his Best of DVD on repeat when i was a teen and I forgot how much I loved Opera Man.

At this moment, this is the best video on Youtube.

Bro he predicted that Kyrie and Durant would come to New York!!! (Although it was the nets)

[deejohnston]

One of my favorite characters!! So glad he did it!!!

[gregorpeterson]

Cannot believe it's been four years!

[shak]

Its rare that a staple character gets to have an official final goodbye skit. Even if it took 24 years lol. They did Opera-man justice.

I can’t be the only one who’s listened to this 40 times 😂

[davidjameschamberlain]

Who's here after realizing that Opera Man called the Democratic Primaries

[coosoorlog]

I had no idea I loved Adam Sandler this much.

[jiwonyissobored]

I lost it at *Gropa gropa, Sniffa sniffa* 😂😂😂

[suzylux]

Best of the night, barring his tribute to Farley which was another thing altogether.

[DragonMasterSubo]

Sandler was, and always will be, one of the best cast members of SNL

This episode was magic.

[sunurchins]

I guess I shouldn't be this impressed, Sandler's been at it awhile, but that was SO good! He's a great performer!

It’s hilarious watching this after Biden won 😂😂
