Comedy Central's "Night of Too Many Stars" brought together an all-star lineup of celebrities to raise money and awareness for autism.

Hosted by Jon Stewart, the sixth biennial special event featured performances, sketches and short films, as well as an online auction where the public can bid on items donated by celebrities, props from the event and walk-on roles on some of TV’s hottest shows.

Among the stars who performed and manned the phone banks during Sunday's live telecast were Steve Buscemi, Steve Carell, Paul Rudd, Gilbert Gottfried, Chris Rock and Sarah Silverman.
