Is โ€˜SNLโ€™ New Tonight, April 19?



โ€œSaturday Night Liveโ€ is heading into the home stretch of its 50th anniversary season with more laughs up its sleeve.

Jon Hamm returned to โ€œSNLโ€ to host for a fourth time on the April 12 episode, spoofing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. in a controversial โ€œWhite Lotusโ€ parody. In another sketch, the former โ€œMad Menโ€ star played a new employee who shares horrific facts about his past during an icebreakers exercise at his new workplace.

More than a dozen A-list entertainers have hosted the show in Season 50, including Lady Gaga, Charli XCX, Timothรฉe Chalamet, Michael Keaton, Mikey Madison, Martin Short, Ariana Grande, Jean Smart and Jack Black.

Musical guests this season have included Lizzo, Coldplay, Stevie Nicks, Morgan Wallen, Jelly Roll, Chappell Roan, Elton John and Brandi Carlisle โ€” who performed together! โ€” and more hitmakers.

In a fun twist this season, Lady Gaga, Charli XCX and Timothรฉe Chalamet all pulled double duty by performing as the musical guest on the episodes they hosted.

Which brings us to the April 19 episode of โ€œSNL.โ€

Is there a new episode of โ€˜SNLโ€™ tonight?

No, โ€œSNLโ€ wonโ€™t be airing live on April 19. Instead, tune in to watch a rebroadcast of the hilarious episode comedian David Chappelle hosted on Jan. 18 with musical guest GloRilla.

When is the next live episode of โ€˜SNLโ€™?

The next live episode of โ€œSNLโ€ has been set for May 3, featuring โ€œAbbott Elementaryโ€ creator and star Quinta Brunson as host for the second time.

Brunson knocked her debut hosting gig out of the park back in April 2023. She joined a creepy bridesmaids club in one sketch and got into a hilarious road rage argument with cast member Mikey Day in another.

Singer-songwriter Benson Boone, who earned rave reviews for his performance during the first weekend of Coachella 2025, will make his โ€œSNLโ€ debut as the episodeโ€™s musical guest.
