- The producers of Saturday Night Live (1975) would almost always include a Samurai sketch when he hosted. On one episode, John Belushi accidentally cut him near the eyebrow with his samurai sword. As a tribute to this on-air injury, the rest of the cast wore bandages over their eyebrows.
- Only son of Paul Steinberg Zuckerman (1899-1966), a retired US Air Force Brigadier General who became a Wall Street broker, and actress Ruth Taylor (1905-1984), a Mack Sennett "Bathing Beauty" who starred as Lorelei Lee in the original silent version of Os Homens Preferem as Louras (1928).
- He is the founding member of Saturday Night Live (1975)'s "Five Timers Club", and has hosted the show 10 times.
- Went to boarding school at Choate Rosemary Hall and graduated from Dartmouth College, where he worked on the Dartmouth Jack-O-Lantern humor magazine.
- Directed three actors in Oscar nominated performances: Warren Beatty, Jack Warden and Dyan Cannon, all of them in O Céu Pode Esperar (1978).
- [about President George W. Bush] We need a president who's fluent in at least one language.
- [about writer Edward Adler, a longtime friend] He was the most lovable guy I guess I ever met in my life. I don't know anyone who knew Eddie that didn't want to protect him, because he always seemed like an innocent. Eddie was a great example of someone who always lived close to the ground, so to speak. He wandered through life with his eye and his ear on a kind of New York that doesn't exist anymore.
- [on his short-lived career as a stand-up comic] I never liked working in places where people drank and yelled at me.
- I don't like to write with people because if they aren't as funny as me I hate them and if they are funnier than me I hate them.
- [on Charles Webb's original novel of "The Graduate"]: It's an absolutely first-class novel with great characters, great dialogue, a terrific them. Who could resist it?
