• SNL is launching their 50th season with FIVE episodes in a row!

• The reigning Best Actress in a Comedy winner Jean Smart kicks off the season on September 28 with musical guest Jelly Roll. It will be the legend’s first time hosting!

• Nate Bargatze is back for round two on October 5 (he first hosted back in October of last year). Bargatze’s show happens to fall on the anniversary of the show’s first episode! Coldplay returns to the show for the umpteenth time as musical guest.

• Ariana Grande is also stopping by to host again on October 12. She performed as the musical guest last season, the first time she’s returned to the show since the end of her relationship with SNL alum Pete Davidson. Stevie Nicks will be the musical guest and it will be her first time on the show since 1983!

• Michael Keaton takes the Halloween episode, joined by Billie Eilish. Keaton last hosted in 2014!

• John Mulaney is back for a sixth time as host and takes the “election episode” spot this year, and he will be joined by Chappell Roan!

• SNL does traditionally have a show the weekend of a presidential election, but it appears they might be skipping this year.
