There were rumblings that Colin Jost would announce during the Season 50 finale, and everyone and their mothers over-analyzed Bowen Yang's emotional reaction during the season finale's "goodnights." In fact, SNL even had some fun with all of the rumors and gossip during Scarlett Johansson's opening monologue by having Sarah Sherman learn during the musical[...]

Maybe NBC's Saturday Night Live realized that a whole ton of SNL fans were suffering from the post-Season 50 blues, realizing that it's a long road between now and when the long-running late-night sketch comedy and music series returns this fall To help us process, SNL released a compilation of some choice bloopers from the[...]
It's that time when the press starts speculating over who will and won't be returning, with Season 51 expected to see some cast changes. Scarlett Johansson was tasked with the responsibility of hosting this season's final run, and it was one that never took its eye off the prize, even with the SNL family clearly recognizing[...]
And with that, the 50th season of NBC's Saturday Night Live has come to a close, with SNL host Scarlett Johansson (Jurassic World Rebirth), musical guest Bad Bunny, the cast, Mike Myers, and more taking to the main stage for the official "goodnights." Shortly after Johansson began to speak, husband, writer, and "Weekend Update" co-anchor Colin[...]
After Johansson teased "retaliation" in a recent interview that dropped before she was officially announced as the season finale host, we couldn't wait to see what would be unleashed (and by whom).

After a run of killer headlines from the past week and the return of the amazing Miss Eggy (Ego Nwodim) talking[...]
With NBC's Saturday Night Live wrapping up Season 50 tonight with host Scarlett Johansson (Jurassic World Rebirth) and musical guest Bad Bunny, we were wondering what SNL would be targeting with its final Cold Open until the fall Donald Trump (James Austin Johnson) apparently found love in the Middle East with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman[...]
If you're new to the twistedly hysterical tradition, the writers and WU co-anchors abuse each other for our enjoyment by making each other read some truly brutal and over-the-top "news stories." And if tradition continues, we should have another round tonight, which means now might be as good a time as any to look back on[...]
With host Scarlett Johansson (Jurassic World Rebirth) and musical guest Bad Bunny set to take to the stages of Studio 8H for NBC's Saturday Night Live Season 50 finale, we're getting a chance to look back at last weekend's show with a newly-released SNL Cut For Time sketch In "Amazing Anna," Walton Goggins, Chloe Fineman, and Bowen[...]
By now, we're all very familiar with Che and co-anchor Colin Jost's "joke swaps" where the writers abuse each other for our enjoyment by making each other read some truly brutal and over-the-top "news stories." With Johansson being married to Jost, she's been a choice target of Che's, including the infamously funny "roast beef" line[...]
Setting that aside, we have host Scarlett Johansson (Jurassic World Rebirth) and musical guest Bad Bunny, joined by SNL great Kenan Thompson In the first promo, Johansson plans on ending the season in a big (and very unrealistic) way Following that, Bad Bunny plans on having an "awesome summer" (whatever that might mean) Finally, Thompson makes[...]
After being saved from a kiss-starved Colin Jost by Sarah Sherman and Michael Che earlier today during NBC's Saturday Night Live's midweek sketch, host Scarlett Johansson (Jurassic World Rebirth) is back with the SNL cast and writers for tonight's read-thru Of course, this one's a bit bittersweet since it's also the final Wednesday read-thru for the[...]

By now, we all remember the drama that went down between NBC's Saturday Night Live and musical guest Morgan Wallen regarding how he exited the show during the "goodnights." As if exiting via the front of the stage while the show was still on the air wasn't questionable enough, Wallen's subsequent "Get me to God's country" post[...]
We're going to chalk up the penultimate episode of NBC's Saturday Night Live Season 50 as a combination of a bad case of the nerves and the SNL writers taking some big and very random creative swings this week It wasn't that it was a bad show; far from it, in fact (which I'll get[...]

That means that it's time for the SNL midweek sketch (which you can check out above), with Marcello Hernandez catching up with Goggins to see how he's feeling about hosting Maybe its a bit of PTSD from filming The White Lotus, but Goggins seems to have some "theories" on how the season will end Michael[...]

With only a few days to go until NBC's Saturday Night Live resumes Season 50, upcoming host Quinta Brunson (ABC's Abbott Elementary) and musical guest Benson Boone were joined by SNL star Sarah Sherman for Thursday's on-stage promos Except that this week's promos were a bit different… think of it more as a three-act tragic play[...]
