NBC will also air an episode of “SNL” the following weekend, on March 14, with host and musical guest to be announced at a later date.

“Saturday Night Live” kicked off its 51st season in October 2025 with Bad Bunny as its premiere host. The season was prefaced by a cast shake-up that saw the departure of series vets Ego Nwodim and Heidi Gardner, as well as relative newcomers Devon Walker, Emil Wakim and Michael Longfellow. John Higgins also left the show, while his Please Don’t Destroy castmate Ben Marshall was promoted to the main cast, and Martin Herlihy shifted to writing role.
The cast added newcomers Tommy Brennan, Jeremy Culhane, Kam Patterson and Veronika Slowikowska, and longtime star Bowen Yang departed midway through the season, capping off his eight-year run with an episode hosted by his “Wicked” co-star Ariana Grande.
“SNL” airs on NBC at 11:30 p.m. ET. It’s created and executive produced by Lorne Michaels, whose banner Broadway Video also produces.
