Saturday Night Live has revealed an exciting lineup for its upcoming episodes, showcasing a series of hosting and musical guest debuts that promise to bring fresh talent to the iconic stage.
This weekend’s episode on October 18 will feature Sabrina Carpenter, who will not only host but also perform as the musical guest. Making her SNL debut as a musical guest in 2024 and appearing in the show’s 50th anniversary special, Carpenter is set for a significant evening.
Following Carpenter, the show will welcome Miles Teller back for his second hosting stint on November 1. He will be accompanied by Brandi Carlile, a seasoned performer on SNL with three previous appearances under her belt, including a collaboration with Elton John last season.
The excitement continues on November 15 when comedian Nikki Glaser makes her hosting debut. Glaser has expressed her lifelong admiration for the show, describing the chance to host as a dream come true. Joining her will be British singer-songwriter Olivia Dean, who is also making her maiden appearance as the musical guest. Dean, fresh off the release of her second album, The Art of Loving, adds to the anticipation surrounding the episodes.
Earlier this season, which kicked off on October 4, SNL saw the likes of Bad Bunny host and Doja Cat make her debut as a musical guest. Amy Poehler’s return and several notable surprise appearances, including Tina Fey and Seth Meyers, have set a lively tone for Season 51.
As SNL continues to innovate with its lineup, it showcases emerging talents alongside established artists, creating a dynamic atmosphere that delights audiences. Fans can catch all the fun every Saturday at 11:30 p.m. ET on NBC and Peacock.
