Is 'SNL' on tonight? Here's when 'Saturday Night Live' returns on NBC and Peacock with new episodes

"Saturday Night Live" Fans Left Waiting: No New Episodes Tonight

As November draws to a close, fans of the iconic late-night sketch comedy show are being left disappointed. With no new episodes airing tonight (November 22), viewers will have to look elsewhere for their fix of "SNL."

Instead, NBC has opted to broadcast a college football game featuring the Washington Huskies vs. UCLA, which kicks off at 10:15 a.m. ET and won't conclude until 1:30 a.m. ET.

So when can fans expect new episodes of "SNL" again? The show is set to return with host Melissa McCarthy on December 6, followed by appearances from Josh O'Connor and Ariana Grande in the weeks that follow.

For those eager to stay up-to-date on all things "SNL," there's also a brand-new documentary titled "Downey Wrote That" available now on Peacock. This delightful doc explores the life of late-night writer and producer Jim Downey, who is best known for his work behind the scenes on the show.

For those looking to watch new episodes or revisit classic seasons, both NBC and Peacock offer a range of options. With 51 seasons currently available to stream, there's never been a better time to catch up with your favorite cast members and hilarious sketches.

Of course, some fans may be disappointed that "SNL" isn't airing on Hulu next week, as the platform doesn't currently offer same-day streaming of new episodes.
 
Ugh I know I'll be missing out on a Saturday Night Live episode tonight lol its like when we have a big test and our teacher gives us a surprise quiz πŸ˜‚πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ anyway I'm so done with the football game interrupting SNL. Can't they just give us some funny sketches for once? πŸŽ‰πŸ‘€ I heard there's this new documentary about Jim Downey though, that sounds kinda cool. I'll have to check it out when I get a break from studying πŸ“šπŸ˜΄
 
πŸ€” oh man, i'm so bummed there's no snl tonight πŸ“Ί i've been waiting all day for new episodes and now they're pushing college football 🏈 instead? don't get me wrong, i love sports, but come on! πŸ˜‚ anyway, the doc "downey wrote that" sounds kinda cool, i'll have to check it out πŸ‘€ and yay for a new episode in december tho! melissa mccarthy is gonna kill it as host 🀣
 
Ugh, what's going on with SNL? First they're skipping a Saturday night, now it's not even available on Hulu?! πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ It's like they can't make up their minds about where to stream the show. Can't we just get same-day episodes already? And what's with the college football game taking over the slot? I mean, I love a good game as much as the next person but come on, isn't it time for some SNL?! πŸ˜’ The only bright spot is the documentary "Downey Wrote That" on Peacock, that sounds interesting. πŸ“Ί
 
ugh, no new snl tonight 😐. i'm all about snl, it's one of my fave shows to watch after a long day, but not being able to get new ep now is pretty lame... meanwhile, they're just gonna air some football game instead 🏈? and what's up with no snl on hulu next week either? shouldn't they be streaming same-day or something? i'm still hyped for december 6 tho when melissa mccarthy is hosting πŸŽ‰
 
I don’t usually comment but I was really looking forward to Saturday Night Live tonight πŸ€”... it's like they just vanished into thin air? I know there's a documentary available now, but that's not the same thing. Come on NBC, can't you give us some new episodes or at least tell us when we can expect them back? πŸ˜• It seems like every year they're doing something different with their airing schedule and it gets me so frustrated! πŸ™„
 
Ugh, I'm so bummed they're not doing any new SNL episodes tonight πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ. I mean, I get it, college football is important and all, but can't we just get our fix of Kate McKinnon's weirdness for a hot sec? πŸ˜‚ Anyway, on the bright side, I've been binge-watching old seasons on Peacock and "Downey Wrote That" is SO good πŸ“š. Maybe they'll make up for it by having Melissa McCarthy host in December? Fingers crossed! πŸ’•
 
I'm so down for a Saturday night without SNL, lol πŸ˜‚πŸ‘€ it's like NBC is trying to tell us that we're not ready for some good ol' fashioned comedy relief yet! But seriously, what's up with no new episodes tonight? I know the college football game is a big deal and all, but come on, folks! Can't they just fit in an SNL episode somewhere in between?

And don't even get me started on Hulu not having same-day streaming. It's like they're trying to hold our laughter hostage! 🀣 Meanwhile, Peacock has the new documentary "Downey Wrote That" which sounds super interesting, but I'm still craving that live sketch comedy fix.

I think it's time for NBC to step up their game and figure out a way to make SNL work with all these streaming options. I mean, we've got 51 seasons of content already - can't they just keep the momentum going? 😀
 
ugh, no new snl tonight?? πŸ€• that's like, so frustrating especially when u're all caught up in the season and then suddenly nothing. can't believe they're airin a football game instead lol. but on the bright side, i heard there's this new documentary about jim downey that's actually pretty cool... might be worth checkin out πŸ‘€
 
awww man no snl tonight πŸ€•πŸ˜” i was so hyped for this episode ... maybe they'll make it up to us with that doc tho? πŸ‘ "Downey Wrote That" sounds like a cool watch πŸ“ΊπŸŽ¬ 51 seasons though? thats crazy! 🀯 i mean idk about the hulu thing, but i guess its just another reason to keep up with peacock πŸŒˆπŸ‘€
 
ugh what's going on rn? can't we just get back to normal saturday night live episodes already?! 51 seasons of content and no new ones for weeks? that's just crazy i was literally looking forward to some laughs and now i gotta watch a college football game instead πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ it's not like i don't have better things to do with my time... also, where's the love for saturday night live on hulu?! why can't they just get in sync? πŸ“ΊπŸ˜’
 
Its time to talk about this SNL thing. I mean, what's up with these networks not showing us our comedy gold every single day? πŸ€” I'm all for sports and college football, but let's be real, folks need their late-night laughs too! NBC could've at least told us in advance when we could expect new episodes of SNL. Now fans are left waiting... like the rest of us, stuck in a system that doesn't always prioritize our needs. Maybe we should ask ourselves: is this what happens when we give the power to networks over individual shows? 🀝
 
Ugh I'm soooo over this Sat night thing... can't we just have one weekend to relax without worrying about what's coming up? πŸ€―β€β™€οΈ Like I get it, college football is cool and all but can't we get our SNL fix instead? πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ Dec 6 can't come soon enough! πŸ’β€β™€οΈ
 
Ugh man I'm so done with no new SNL this weekend πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈπŸ“Ί I was literally counting down till tonight and now it's just football all day I get that NBC wants to bring in some cash but can't they see how much we want our weekly dose of Kate McKinnon and Pete Davidson? 😩 The good news is the new doc on Peacock about Jim Downey sounds cool, but honestly I'd rather watch him write SNL scripts than a documentary about his life πŸ“
 
OMG, CAN'T BELIEVE THERE ARE NO NEW EPISODES OF SNL TONIGHT!!! πŸ˜±πŸ“Ί i know some fans are disappointed cuz they cant get enough of that wacky cast and hilarious sketches 🀣 but on the other hand i think its kinda cool that we got a documentary about jim downey to make up for it... i mean, who doesnt love a good behind-the-scenes story? 🎬 plus with 51 seasons available to stream on peacock, there's plenty of snl goodness to go around 🀩
 
😐 I'm starting to feel like we're losing touch with live TV πŸ“Ί. Everyone's always binge-watching or waiting for the latest episode release... when are we going to sit back and enjoy something together in real-time? I remember watching SNL with my friends and family on a Friday night, it was always such a special time πŸ’•. Now it feels like we're just going through the motions πŸ”„. I do love that there's still so much content available on Peacock though! 😊
 
😐 u guys are gonna have to wait till dec 6th for new snl eps πŸ€” i dont get why they cant air a ep tonight tho its only a college game lol πŸ˜‚ anyway, theres this cool doc on peacock about jim downey thats actually pretty interesting πŸ‘€ gotta check it out πŸ‘
 
Ugh I'm so bummed there's no new SNL tonight πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ. I was really looking forward to some laughs after a long day of work. I guess I'll just have to check out that new documentary on Peacock about Jim Downey instead. Has anyone seen it? πŸ“Ί It's nice to know they're offering all those classic seasons on NBC and Peacock, but I wish Hulu could catch up with the same-day streaming thing... can't we just get some consistency here? 😩
 
πŸ€” SNL is like my go-to show when I need a laugh, you know? I was looking forward to it tonight and now I'm gonna have to wait till Dec 6th πŸ“†. But on the bright side, who doesn't love a good football game? πŸ˜‚ Although, I'm more of a Hulu fan myself... or at least I thought I was πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ. Guess they're not offering same-day streaming anymore? πŸ˜• Anyway, I've been binge-watching their old episodes and I gotta say, some of the classic sketches are still fire πŸ”₯! What's your fave SNL moment or character? πŸ€”
 
Aww man, no new SNL tonight is gonna suck 😐. I'm so used to having my weekend nights fixed with Pete Davidson and Chris Redd's antics that it's always a letdown when they're not on. Can someone please just stream all the classic episodes on Peacock already? πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ I mean, 51 seasons is a lot of content, but we should be able to binge whenever we want, you know? πŸ“Ί At least Melissa McCarthy is coming back soon though, that's some good news πŸŽ‰.
