Alec’s look of true shock and delight was priceless. And McCartney swatting him to keep the sketch going was the cherry on top.

Everyone's big until a Beatle walks in.

When you only have one line in the skit but you still get tons of laughs and applause throughout. Martin Short is so good.

[slapmyfunkybass]

When Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin are star struck, you know you’re a star.

[SCARFACE]

“I’m sorry Maya I did what I could” *Walks away* LOLLLL

[jgrn]

I’ve never seen Alec Baldwin speechless. I think he was genuinely star struck. That was cool!

[ddburrows]

I think they were told that Paul Simon was going to show up at the end, but they snuck in Sir Paul, as a surprise. Baldwin’s and Short’s reactions were priceless.

[schallrd]

McCartney only has to stand there and steal the scene with pure awesomeness.

[ilonabologna]

Martin Short is priceless in this...smiles for the camera..walks away. The audience goes nuts!😁😊😊😊🥰

[PiCheZvara]

I love how Martin Short sticks his hand in the scotch glasses. That stole the sketch.

[Paul McCartney appears]

Steve: It IS Paul Simon!

[Rcity]

All martin short has to do is walk on stage, and I’m instantly laughing, and filled with joy. His energy is completely unmatched.

[roman]

fifty years later and if your a Beatle you're still that notch above all other stars

[jayspencer]

Steve martin is one of the only people alive who can pull off such a good mixture of cleverness and slapstick.

[tigersfan]

Judging by Alec's genuine shock, I don't think Paul McCartney was in this skit at the dress rehearsal hahaha

[markzappasodi]

There's Paul McCartney and then there's everybody else. 😁

[silverpslm]

Martin Short walking in is like Spongebob mopping the floor.

[ericm]

Steve has looked the same for 30 years

[jaadkins]

Martin Short and Steve Martin must be protected at all costs

[katiebohan]

Alec Baldwin fangirling over Paul is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen
