Bill Hader Jokes His Way Toward the Exit in ‘SNL’ Finale Promos (Video)

"I loved 'Fargo,'" Bill Hader tells "Argo" director-star Ben Affleck

Bill Hader might be on his way out at "Saturday Night Live," but he's not quite done wisecracking just yet.

Hader, who announced earlier this week that he's leaving the late-night comedy institution after its current season, appears in a series of promos for this week's season finale with the episode's host, Ben Affleck, to drum up a few laughs in the name of publicity.

The dominant butt of Hader's jokes? Affleck's Oscar-winning film "Argo."

"We hope there won't be any 'Argo'-ment about it," Hader cracks in one promo, after Affleck announces that Kanye West will be the musical guest for the finale.

In another, Hader makes a comically failed attempt at flattery, telling Affleck, "Hey, uh, I loved 'Fargo.'" Which, uh, Affleck didn't direct, or star in, lest there be any confusion.

Will "SNL" be the same without Hader? Share your thoughts in the comments, after drinking up the Hader-ade by watching the promos.
