We should start getting a better idea of how this weekend's shaping up, beginning with tomorrow's SNL midweek sketch & read-thru check-in But for now? Well, it's Tuesday, so that means… Image: SNL Screencaps Here's a look at SNL's welcome video, rolling out the red carpet for Driver & Rodrigo ahead of this weekend's show: Last week, we[...]

And while it's not a competition, Stone, musical guest Noah Kahan, and SNL's cast & writers definitely set a high bar for Adam Driver & Olivia Rodrigo to clear next weekend and Kate McKinnon & Billie Eilish to clear before wrapping up 2023 So let's jump into what worked (a lot), what didn't work (nothing), and[...]

Finally, in a shift away from SNL's news desk, Kenan Thompson, Mikey Day, James Austin Johnson, Devon Walker & Molly Kearney's Fox Sports hosts interview "Santos" – and can't seem to get rid of them. And in this clip from NBC's Late Night with Seth Meyers, Yang shares with Seth Meyers the difficulties of portraying Santos: [...]

In the first SNL promo, Sherman proposes a fashion swap with Stone – which leads to a fashion truth for Sherman Following that, Sherman goes the pun route with Kahan's name – to mixed results Finally, Sherman reveals to Stone that they're both "five-timers"… but that's definitely where the similarities end. Image: SNL Screencap And don't forget[...]

Following that, midseason wraps on December 16th with host & SNL icon Kate McKinnon and musical guest Billie Eilish And that brings us to Wednesday night and our chance to check out Stone in the middle of read-thru with the SNL cast.

Instead of making us wait until this weekend when host Emma Stone (Showtime's The Curse) and musical guest Noah Kahan take the stages of Studio 8H to let us know who's on tap and when fro the remainder of the year, SNL confirmed earlier today that Season 49 has two more shows after this weekend before[...]

Of course, if you're an SNL fan, then you know that means that we get a look at Stone and the cast during read-thru But before that happens, we have a midweek sketch that finds Stone going solo as she reveals the secret to comedy Well… she tries? Image: SNL Screencap Now, here's that look at Stone[...]

But before SNL left for break, we learned that Emma Stone (Showtime's The Curse) and musical guest Noah Kahan would be taking to the stages of Studio 8H on December 2nd Well, it's the Tuesday before a new show, so it's time to roll out the red carpet for Stone & Kahan – with this[...]

But it didn't quite work – and a large part of that falls equally on the shoulders of host Jason Momoa and the SNL cast & writing team One thing that I've touched upon in the past is how the show works best when the host gives themselves over to the creative team behind the[...]

With Thanksgiving week coming up, SNL will be off next weekend – but the late-night sketch comedy/music series returns on December 2nd with host Emma Stone (Showtime's The Curse) and musical guest Noah Kahan Here's a look at the official index cards: Image: SNL NBC's Saturday Night Live Season 49 company includes Michael Che, Mikey Day, Andrew Dismukes,[...]

Thankfully, Momoa made our lives a little easier by sharing his own personal SNL diary from the past week Following that, we look back at his first run at host – and how he was in a ton of episodes during that show. Image: SNL Screencaps Here's a look at Momoa's SNL week – followed by two[...]

One of his stops was The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon – where the superstar & SNL host had some interesting things to say about his run as Aquaman – and what sounds like a very warm & cozy future home in DC Studios heads James Gunn & Peter Safran's new DCU. Image: Instagram Screencap/Warner Bros[...]

And this week, host Jason Momoa ("Aquaman" film franchise), musical guest Tate McRae, and SNL cast member Chloe Fineman team up for a trifecta of fun First up, the trio is in a "giving" mood as they try to appeal to Gen Z Following that, Momoa proves to be a man of facts – and[...]

On Tuesday, SNL formally welcomed host Jason Momoa ("Aquaman" film franchise) and musical guest Tate McRae with an intro video And then, earlier today, we were treated to a really fun midweek sketch with Momoa and SNL's Ego Nwodim and Marcello Hernandez That brings us to Wednesday night (a little later than the past few weeks),[...]

As in, "no-pants-dance" excited to be back – as SNL's Ego Nwodim and Marcello Hernandez quickly learn.

Between the fourth-wall-breaking cold open to the SNL cast, Chalamet & boygenius taking their well-deserved final bows once 1 am ET hit, there was a whole lot to like about what went down Now, here's a look at a pretty solid selection of visuals from this past weekend – and don't forget that host Jason[...]

Once again, Chalamet has fun without making it all about him – and that kind of vibe allowed the SNL cast to shine in an impressive run of sketches this week Even more impressive was the fact that this weekend came off of an "off-week," with returning shows having the reputation of being a little[...]

That meant that Thursday brought us the on-stage promo – where Chalamet and the band were joined by SNL star Bowen Yang And a lot was covered in a very short period of time – from Yang's age issues and Chalamet being really glad the SAG-AFTRA strike is over to Baker, Bridgers & Dacus not wanting[...]

Earlier today, we had a chance to check out NBC's Saturday Night Live Season 49 host Timothée Chalamet (Wonka) enjoying the sights, sounds & smells of Studios 8H (despite SNL stars Mikey Day's and Sarah Sherman's best efforts to explain to him why that's not such a good idea) Well, it looks like he "recovered" because[...]

First, we're going to get a chance to check out host Timothée Chalamet (Wonka) and the SNL cast at the read-thru later on today But before we get to that, we have the new-ish tradition of the midweek sketch In the following clip, Chalamet takes in the sights and sounds of Studio 8H ahead of[...]

Nearly three years later, Chalamet is set to make his return to Studio 8H with musical guest boygenius (Julien Baker, Phoebe Bridgers, and Lucy Dacus) – so you know what it's time for, right? Yup, we have SNL's official intro video for this weekend's host and musical guest as the promo cycle for this weekend's episode[...]

A solid single (possibly a double) with SNL alum Pete Davidson & musical guest Ice Spice in the opener, followed by a triple with Halloween weekend host/stand-up comedian Nate Bargatze and musical guest Foo Fighters (though it was a strikeout with host & musical guest Bad Bunny) But now, we're only days away from Timothée Chalamet (Wonka)[...]

After a strong season-opener with SNL alum Pete Davidson & musical guest Ice Spice, the show took a step back the following week with host & musical guest Bad Bunny Thankfully, Halloween weekend host/stand-up comedian Nate Bargatze, musical guest Foo Fighters (Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Chris Shiflett, Rami Jaffee, and Josh Freese), and the[...]

He spoke to Bleeding Cool about why his versatility to young and older audiences in sketch comedy allowed him to act as Nintendo spokesman, why his partnership allowed him to work with his daughters for their latest ad campaign, why he has more pressing concerns than the 50th anniversary of SNL.
