SNL: Check Out Who's Who at SNL50 Anniversary Special Read-Thru

With Sunday a big night for SNL 50, check out who was around the table and in attendance for the SNL50: The Anniversary Special read-thru.

Just because this weekend is the huge three-hour primetime celebration SNL50: The Anniversary Special doesn't mean that NBC's Saturday Night Live isn't still keeping some of its traditions alive. While we might not have gotten a midweek sketch, and there's a very good chance that there won't be on-stage promos, we did get a look at the table read for the big event. We won't deprive you of the fun of trying to figure out who everyone is, but we will start you off with Lorne Michaels, Colin Jost, Kenan Thompson, Kate McKinnon, Seth Meyers, and John Mulaney…

Here's a look at the table read for this weekend's big 50th anniversary primetime event, set to hit screens on Sunday, Feb. 16th:
