Viewers looking for a new episode of Saturday Night Live tonight will not find an all-new show on NBC. The episode airing on March 28 is a repeat, while the next fresh installment of the long-running late-night series is scheduled for next week.
NBC airs Saturday Night Live on Saturdays at 11:30/10:30c, with next-day streaming available on Peacock. For tonight’s lineup, the network is replaying the December 6 episode that featured Melissa McCarthy as host and Dijon as the musical guest.
Is Saturday Night Live new tonight?
No. Saturday Night Live is not new tonight, and the show is taking a short break before returning with fresh material. The rerun gives viewers another chance to watch McCarthy’s sixth hosting appearance, which included several widely shared sketches.
That December episode drew attention for its mix of holiday comedy and high-energy performances. One of the standout bits was “A Helping Hand,” a dark Christmas sketch that added to McCarthy’s reputation for bold, physical comedy across multiple SNL appearances.
When is the next new SNL episode?
The next new Saturday Night Live episode is set for April 4, when the show returns with Jack Black as host and Jack White as musical guest. Black is expected to join the show’s Five-Timers Club after hosting for the fourth time in the previous season.
Here is the current schedule for the next two upcoming episodes:
| Date | Host | Musical Guest |
|---|---|---|
| April 4 | Jack Black | Jack White |
| April 11 | Colman Domingo | To be announced |
The April 4 episode will be followed by Colman Domingo’s SNL debut on April 11. That gives the series a strong run of spring episodes after this week’s rerun.
What else is airing under the SNL brand?
There is no new Saturday Night Live episode in the U.S. tonight, but the UK spinoff continues its rollout on Peacock. The second episode of Saturday Night Live UK arrives on Sunday at 9:00 p.m. ET and will feature Jamie Dornan as host with Wolf Alice as the musical guest.
The UK version premiered last week with Tina Fey as the first host, and Peacock has said it will continue updating viewers on the lineup for all eight episodes. For U.S. fans waiting for the main show to return, the next live NBC episode will bring back the familiar late-night format with a new host, a new musical performance, and another week of fresh sketches.
