Comic legend Betty White will guest host the May 8, Mother's Day weekend edition of SNL. At age 88, Betty White probably becomes the oldest guest host of the program ever. Betty White has had a seven decade career in entertainment. She has won seven Emmy Awards as well.
Betty White has hosted parades as well, as was beloved for her funny ditsy role on NBC's GOLDEN GIRLS back when the networks made a serious attempt to offer up fresh and top quality shows on Saturday night, and not just make Saturday evening a dumping ground for canceled TV shows or inexpensive crime story shows.

Betty White is like the cool mom to middle-age Hollywood.
(Though a bit younger, Marion Ross has been attempting to horn in for years, to limited effect, despite her studied non-judgementalism.
After all, Happy Days can't compare to The Mary Tyler Moore Show (White's finest showcase).)
