With host Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, The Mandalorian) and musical guest Coldplay leading the way this weekend, NBC's Saturday Night Live headed into its three-week break on a strong note Over the course of 90 minutes, there were a ton of highlights, with a special surprise cameo appearance from none other than American[...]

This week, NBC's Raymond Lee-starring Quantum Leap leaps back onto our screens with a very special episode, as Ben (Lee) leaps into the life of Gia (Josielyn Aguilera) & the Mendéz family as they help the transgender young woman looks to realize her dream of playing on her high school basketball team[...]

And as for Chris Martin and the crew, "The Astronaut" and "Human Heart/Fix You" left us wondering if the band had found either a time machine or the secret to immortality because both performances looked and sounded like they were plucked out of time, yet with more than enough of the "new" them to not[...]

That means it's time for "all your favorite wacky racers" to be "reimagined as complex, dramatic HBO characters" – and that includes Luigi, Yoshi, and Toad.

In what's been an excellent episode of NBC's Saturday Night Live, we were treated to a special surprise cameo appearance from none other than American Horror Story great Sarah Paulson, who appeared to support their friend & SNL host, Pedro Pascal (who was accompanied tonight by musical guest Coldplay) In the sketch "Fancam Assembly," a[...]

Here's hoping that host Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, The Mandalorian) and musical guest Coldplay are having a great show to send us out on because we learned during NBC's Saturday Night Live that the long-running late-night sketch comedy/music series will be taking the next two weeks off But when the show returns on[...]

Some great news this week for fans of series star & EP Melissa Rauch, co-star/EP John Larroquette & writer/EP Dan Rubin's Night Court, with NBC giving the sequel spinoff series the green light for a second season after only its first four episodes So before we share a look at the overviews and preview images for[...]

Okay, we had a slight change of plans when it comes to NBC's Saturday Night Live This time around, SNL host Pedro Pascal (The Last of Us, The Mandalorian) and musical guest Coldplay are being joined by cast member Ego Nwodim on a Friday instead of a Thursday for the on-stage promo In the first promo,[...]

Toward the end of January, we reported on how the union representing postproduction workers (approximately 20 part-time film editors, editors, assistant editors & media managers responsible for pre-taped segments) at NBC's Saturday Night Live had authorized a strike with the hope of accelerating contract negotiations with NBCUniversal's labor team The move came a little more[...]

Series star & EP Melissa Rauch, co-star/EP John Larroquette & writer/EP Dan Rubin's Night Court will be back in session for a second season, with NBC renewing the series sequel to Reinhold Weege's classic popular sitcom "The verdict is in, and the 'new-boot' of Night Court is a hit! The series' razor-sharp humor makes the show[...]

Or, as you're about to see, we not only get a double dose of Pascal during the SNL read-thru via Instagram, but he even found a way to show up in the SNL cast photos- here's a look: Image: SNL Instagram Stories Screencap Image: SNL Instagram Stories Screencap Image: SNL Instagram Stories Screencap Image: SNL Instagram Stories Screencap Image: SNL[...]

If you had a chance to check out this week's midweek sketch from NBC's Saturday Night Live, then you know that Sarah Sherman and Molly Kearney saved the newest SNL cast member/clicker "Matt" from a hammer-beating from host Pedro Pascal, who was clearly channeling his time playing Joel from HBO's The Last of Us[...]

On February 26th, it's the beginning of the end for James Spader's Raymond "Red" Reddington, with NBC confirming earlier today that the long-running thriller/drama The Blacklist will be ending its run with its upcoming tenth season Joining Spader for the final run (with the show celebrating its 200th episode on Sunday, March 19th) are Diego[...]

But based on the midweek sketch posted by NBC's Saturday Night Live earlier today, it looks like this weekend's host, Pedro Pascal, is having some issues letting go of "Joel" from HBO's The Last of Us Thankfully, Sarah Sherman and Molly Kearney were on hand to save newest "cast member" Matt from a fate worse than[...]

Jordan and Lil Baby last weekend, NBC's Saturday Night Live hopes Pedro Pascal can do for the late-night sketch comedy/music series as host what he did for the image of single dads caring for kids in really f***ed-up environments (Disney+'s The Mandalorian, HBO's The Last of Us) Joining him as SNL's musical guest is Coldplay,[...]

Offerman spoke to TV Line that Ellie and Bill crossed paths on the TV series, how it would be similar to his Parks & Rec character Ron Swanson's bond to Aubrey Plaza's April Ludgate, his assistant.

There's hardly any shouty conflict or melodrama here, a respite from the anti-corruption legal thrillers, military thrillers, wuxia fantasies, and cop shows that pepper Chinese television. When a low-key show like Meet Yourself gets one billion views in China alone, does that make it the biggest show in the world if people in the West don't[...]

So with that in mind, I've got some thoughts on our host & musical guest, how "weirdness" won the day for this weekend's episode (we're calling it "Sarah Sherman-ification"), and how SNL probably could've dialed back a bit on objectifying & sexualizing Jordan because after while it was tough to argue that it was being[...]

Jordan hosting NBC's Saturday Night Live tonight (with musical guest Lil Baby), we have something very cool to pass along to you, courtesy of the fine folks at The Saturday Night Network Offering podcast and other media coverage of the long-running late-night sketch comedy/music series from a number of hosts, serious SNL fans, and journalists,[...]

Riding high off the news that it will be returning for a second season, next week's return episode of NBC's Raymond Lee-starring series revival of Quantum Leap vibes like a cross between Happy Death Day, Groundhog Day & 13 Days in all the best ways possible Except there's one destructive difference because it looks like[...]

So it made all of the sense in the world to check out Jordan when he visited Jimmy Fallon on NBC's The Tonight Show What we weren't expecting was the creepy connection that Jordan has had with SNL for nearly a decade One that even he didn't know he had until this week One that[...]

But there's still a lot more of the season to go, so with that in mind, we have a look at the newest preview images for the next two episodes- enjoy!

Well, NBC's Saturday Night Live definitely got folks to sit up and take notice when they announced that Pedro Pascal (The Mandalorian, The Last of Us) and Coldplay would be taking the stages of Studio 8H for the February 4th show That's a pretty impressive follow-up to a line-up this weekend that finds Michael B[...]

So we've been noticing that with the midweek sketches now in play on Wednesdays, NBC's Saturday Night Live read-thru check-ins have been landing later and later So our look at host Michael B Jordan (Creed 3), who's joined this weekend by musical guest Lil Baby, is a little later than usual But to make up for it,[...]

Jordan (Creed 3) & musical guest Lil Baby set to take the stages of NBC's Saturday Night Live this weekend, the week has been rolling along pretty steadily (so far) Yesterday, Jordan & Lil Baby saw their SNL promo week officially kick off, and now we're back to check out Jordan's midweek schedule (a very cool tradition[...]

After kicking off 2023 with a strong start (thanks to host Aubrey Plaza & musical guest Sam Smith), NBC's Saturday Night Live returns this weekend with a new episode, a new host (Creed 3's Michael B Jordan & musical guest Lil Baby) Of course, as we learned last night, negotiations between NBC management and the union representing[...]

Unless NBC management can come to terms with the union group representing the long-running late-night sketch comedy/music series' postproduction workers (approximately 20 part-time film editors, editors, assistant editors & media managers), NBC's Saturday Night Live might have to go back to being "live" like back in the old days Earlier today, reports surfaced that the[...]

While NBC's Law & Order fans have the returns of the main series (S22E12 "Almost Famous"), "SVU" (S24E12 "Blood Out") and "Organized Crime" (S03E12 "Partners in Crime") to look forward to this week, we have much more important business to address today And we mean literally today… as in, January 23rd[...]
