Breaking down the 50th anniversary celebration of 'Saturday Night Live'

We've talked about the 50th season of "Saturday Night Live" previously, but the iconic show finally celebrated with an anniversary special.

Co-hosts Bruce Miller and Terry Lipshetz share their thoughts about the skits, musical guests from Paul Simon to Miley Cyrus to Paul McCartney, returning hosts and cast members like Steve Martin, Bill Murray and Tom Hanks, and special guests like the the surprise appearance of Jack Nicholson.

They also talk about the musical special and the re-airing of the very first episode of the show from 1975.
