So last weekend's episode of NBC & Lorne Michaels' Saturday Night Live was a strong one with regards to how the Season 48 cast & writers are coming together. Of course, it didn't hurt having Cecily Strong return and guest star Tom Hanks offering us more insight into David S. Pumpkins. But that was then & this is now, with Amy Schumer (Inside Amy Schumer) on board to host this weekend, with Steve Lacy as the musical artist. So with it being Tuesday, that could mean only one thing…

Here's a look at the official intro "welcome video" for Schumer and Lacy, with more SNL previews & updates rolling out throughout the week (like tomorrow's midweek sketch and SNL read-thru):

In the "Cut for Time" sketch "JNCO Longs," Andrew Dismukes, Sarah Sherman, and Bowen Yang are three friends out at a bar who notice their friend, Chuck (Jack Harlow), who they haven't seen in a long time and who now looks quite different. Well, Chuck explains that it all has to do with his new JNCO Longs. What are JNCO Longs? Well, you're about to find out. But just to be clear, this sketch does not go in the direction you think it's going to go. And if you're not p***ing yourselves over Sherman's facial expressions every time Chuck touches her, then you have no sense of humor.

NBC's Saturday Night Live Season 48 includes Michael Che, Mikey Day, Andrew Dismukes, Chloe Fineman, Heidi Gardner, Marcello Hernandez, James Austin Johnson, Punkie Johnson, Colin Jost, Molly Kearney, Michael Longfellow, Ego Nwodim, Sarah Sherman, Cecily Strong, Kenan Thompson, Devon Walker, and Bowen Yang. Executive produced by Michaels, SNL is directed by Liz Patrick, with alum Darrell Hammond announcing. Based out of Studio 8H in Rockefeller Center, the long-running late-night sketch comedy/music series is produced by SNL Studios in association with Universal Television and Broadway Video.
