So far, NBC's Saturday Night Live Season 49 has given us SNL alum Pete Davidson (Peacock's Bupkis) & musical guest Ice Spice for the season-opener, followed by host/musical guest Bad Bunny during the second episode. That means we have a third episode on tap for this weekend – with first-time host/stand-up comedian Nate Bargatze and musical guest Foo Fighters taking over Studio 8H for the Halloween weekend.
