There’s no better place to be on Saturday nights than Studio 8H. The 51st season of Saturday Night Live<\/a><\/em> is now underway, having kicked off on October 4 with soon-to-be Super Bowl performer Bad Bunny<\/a> as that week’s host and current Fortnite<\/em> villain Doja Cat<\/a> as the musical guest. Since then, we’ve seen Amy Poehler, Role Model, and Sabrina Carpenter<\/a> grace Studio 8H. But who else is set to walk through 30 Rock this season?<\/p>\n

The legendary sketch comedy show is going strong on NBC, with no signs of slowing down. While competition is stiff nowadays\u2014with the increasingly popular Dropout<\/a> providing an alternative brand of humor and I Think You Should Leave<\/em> slated to return to Netflix at some point in the future\u2014Saturday Night Live<\/a><\/em> still represents the pinnacle of live comedy. After celebrating its monumental 50th season back in February, season 51 will see SNL<\/em> cross another milestone with its 1,000th episode.<\/p>\n

But broadcast TV isn’t your only fix for SNL<\/em>. Streaming now on Netflix<\/a> is the 2024 film Saturday Night<\/a>. <\/em>Directed by Jason Reitman, Saturday Night <\/em>follows the 90 minutes leading up to the show’s premiere in 1975. Also streaming now on Peacock is Downey Wrote That<\/a><\/em>, a new hour-long documentary chronicling the life and career of Jim Downey, the longest tenured writer in SNL<\/em> history.<\/p>\n

After the cast and crew of Saturday Night Live<\/em> took some time off in late October, the cameras are set to roll again starting November 1. Below is the release schedule for Saturday Night Live<\/em> season 51, including episodes that have already aired.<\/p>\n
