SNL Pays Tribute to the Late Rob Reiner in Last Episode of the Year

During its remaining episode of the yr, “Saturday Night Live” paused to pay tribute to late producer Rob Reiner … flashing a title card with an outdated photograph of Rob earlier than the present’s “goodnight” phase.

The in memoriam gesture comes lower than every week after Reiner and his spouse — Michele Singer Reiner — had been discovered lifeless of their Los Angeles house. Their son — Nick Reiner — is now dealing with first-degree murder expenses after being arrested in reference to their deaths.

Reiner hosted SNL’s third episode again in 1975 through the present’s early days … and in contrast to hosts George Carlin and Paul Simon on the time, he totally joined within the sketches … serving to set the model that might endlessly outline the sequence.

As we reported, the couple’s daughter, Romy, is the one who found Rob and Michele’s our bodies and referred to as 911. She instructed police her brother Nick was “dangerous” and must be thought of a suspect.

Nick was arrested about 6 hours after police responded to the decision. He’s at the moment held on suicide watch at Men’s Central Jail in L.A. with out bond and awaits his January seventh hearing.
