Is SNL New Tonight (November 14, 2026)? Host, Musical Guest, Episode Details
"Saturday Night Live" drew more than 5 million viewers in its last episode, thanks in part to hiring Druski to host. The comedian/influencer made his SNL debut in the November 7 episode, employing his running gimmick of dressing up as famous people. His episode also featured several celebrity guests, including Emma Stone, Austin Butler and Michael B. Jordan. The gamble on the social media star was successful, with "SNL" nabbing its highest rating in two years.
This week, "Saturday Night Live" Season 52 plans to build on the boost it received from Druski's episode by bringing back familiar, beloved comedian.
Is there a new episode of SNL tonight?
Yes, "Saturday Night Live" is on tonight, and it's likely to be a great show.
Who is hosting SNL tonight?
John Mulaney is hosting "Saturday Night Live" for the seventh time, moving him up the ranking of stars who have hosted the show the most. Mulaney was once a writer on "Saturday Night Live," but he has since built an impressive career of his own as a comedian. Mulaney is returning this time to promote his upcoming movie, "Madden." Mulaney will be the second cast member from that movie who hosted "SNL" this season, after Shane Gillis hosted in October. But since Mulaney is a comedian, fans should expect an extended stand-up monologue from him instead of the usual brief intro from non-comedian hosts.
Who is the musical guest on SNL tonight?
Phoebe Bridgers is the musical guest; she's also appeared on the show multiple times. She previously performed solo in 2021, then returned with her supergroup Boygenius to perform in 2023. Now, she returns in the middle of her world tour to promote her third album, "Lost Weekend." There's also a possibility that Bridgers — who played Del in the 2026 movie "Primetime" — may also appear in a sketch.
Who is the SNL host and musical guest next week?
It looks like "Saturday Night Live" may take a break next week. Normally, NBC announces the dates, host, and musical guests a few weeks in advance of a new episode.
