Molly Shannon called for the maintenance of a positive attitude as she tackled problems facing the SNL cast and Martin Short during her monologue this weekend.

The Saturday Night Live alum proclaimed that it was so great to be back as she kicked off her second time hosting the NBC comedy show.

Shannon, who released her memoir Hello, Molly! last year, said a lot of people were surprised by her candidness regarding her family life before she reflected on her fathers advice: No matter what problems you face, if you keep a positive attitude, everything will turn out OK.

Shannon led into a rendition of the Ethel Merman classic Everythings Coming Up Roses as she probed SNL cast members over their problems.

The host later looped in the shows creator Lorne Michaels , who claimed he didnt have any problems, prior to quizzing Short.

What about you, Martin Short? Shannon asked.

I ran out of Ozempic, yelled Short before he stuffed his face with a burger.
