Alec Baldwin got the apology of his dreams on "Saturday Night Live" last night.

A mustachioed American Airlines pilot who looked eerily like the "30 Rock" star stopped by "Weekend Update" to say sorry for kicking Baldwin off a plane on Wednesday for playing "Words With Friends" a little too long.

It was a perfect capper on an absurd week, in which Baldwin inexplicably led off every entertainment news show because he slammed a door shut too loudly on an airplane. Baldwin turned it into the funniest bit of the night on "SNL," calling himself "an American treasure" and lamenting his struggles in the popular "word game for smart people."

Then Stefon, everyone's favorite guide to New York City nightlife, joined "Weekend Update" immediately thereafter. This show got rolling so hard it needed to be retreaded.

It's a little hard to try to explain Stefon to someone who hasn't seen Bill Hader's club-hopping character, so let's just rattle off some facts: Diminutive 1986 NBA Slam Dunk champion

The competition was over last week with the crowning of techno-wizards Pentatonix as champions, but fans of "The Sing-Off" were treated to one last night of their favorite performers when the a cappella talent show aired a special Christmas episode that brought back star contestants from all three of its seasons. The show's signature competitive tension was gone, and the seasonal spirit was apparent as the groups teamed up for feel-good collaborations.

We saw familiar faces from past seasons, including champions Nota and Committed, along with special guest Flo Rida, who brought a touch of celebrity to his performance of his hit single "Good Feeling" with Urban Method and Pentatonix. Past and present contestants brought everything to the table this week, proving that they take pride in performing even without the promise of a prize. Here are our top five moments of the holiday special:

"The Sing-Off's" three surviving groups braved ten weeks of tense eliminations to arrive at this week's live finale, which was a heartwarming, foot-tapping a cappella extravaganza that thrust the judges, host, eliminated ensembles, and a special surprise guest into the spotlight along with our contestants. With the voting closed, the groups took a break from competing and came together for some incredible joint performances.

All the theatrics led up to the announcement we've been waiting for: Based on home viewer votes, Pentatonix, cutting-edge mix masters from Texas, are "The Sing-Off's" Season 2 champions and winners of the $200,000 prize and Sony Music recording contract!

The final four "Sing-Off" groups tackled mastermixes last night (Lewis Jacobs/NBC)
For the four groups that rose to the top of "The Sing-Off's" competitive a cappella battle, tonight was the final push. Only three groups from the original 16 secured a spot in the finale, and each one is now vulnerable for elimination through America's vote (voting closes Sunday, 11/27 at 9am ET). The performers faced their trickiest task yet this week: mastermix medleys. Their challenge was to combine two hits from completely different artists into one seamless, show-stopping mash-up song. Then each vocal band returned to the stage to perform a "judges' choice" tune -- one that the judges felt would showcase their unique talents.

Here's the thing about The Muppets: When they show up, you're always so glad they're around that it doesn't really matter what they do.

That's what happened with "Saturday Night Live" last night. Jason Segel hosted and his cohorts from the upcoming film "The Muppets" showed up immediately. Kermit, Miss Piggy, Gonzo -- everybody. So, of course, you'll spend the whole show with a smile on your face. This is how the Muppets roll.

Vocal Point was silenced last night (Lewis Jacobs/NBC)
Only five superstar vocal bands remained in this week's episode of "The Sing-Off," and the competition is getting tough. Each group is fighting to win the approval of the judges and to get one step closer to the ultimate prize: $200,000 and a coveted Sony Music recording contract. This week, the show paid tribute to one of the most influential genres of all time: R&B.; The contestants took on a contemporary hit, then performed some of the greatest classics in the genre.

The judges weighed both performances in the most difficult elimination yet, and Brigham Young buddies Vocal Point didn't make the cut. Despite the uplifting vibe and stellar choreography that defined their first performance, a disjointed and lackluster arrangement of "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" disappointed the judges and sealed their fate.

The R&B; theme seemed tailor-made for many of our contestants, who embraced the challenge of re-interpreting the rhythmic genre. Here are our top five songs of the week:
