The anticipation in the air is palpable whenever a new episode of the iconic late-night sketch show, Saturday Night Live, hits the airwaves. Now in its 51st season, SNL continues to showcase the most hilarious hosts and the hottest musical guests, from Amy Poehler to Sabrina Carpenter and beyond. But the burning question on everyone’s mind is always the same: is there a new episode of SNL airing tonight?
Yes, SNL is all set to go live tonight on December 20th. The returning host is none other than the talented Ariana Grande, who will be taking the stage for the annual SNL Christmas show. Joining her as the musical guest is the legendary Cher, making for an unforgettable lineup. Cher, known for her iconic performances, has only graced the SNL stage as musical guest once before in 1987, and she is sure to bring her signature flair to the show.
In a promo for tonight’s episode, Cher adds a touch of nostalgia by delivering her famous line (and slap) from ‘Moonstruck’: “Snap out of it!” The chemistry between Cher, Ariana Grande, and SNL cast member Bowen Yang is sure to be electric and entertaining.
Looking ahead to next week, there has been no announcement yet regarding who will be hosting and performing. However, recent episodes have seen stars like Josh O’Connor and Lily Allen taking the stage, delivering memorable performances that have kept audiences hooked. SNL has a knack for bringing together diverse talents, making each episode a unique experience for viewers.
As the year comes to a close, SNL promises to keep audiences entertained and engaged with its lineup of hosts and musical guests. The show continues to push boundaries and set trends in the world of late-night comedy, providing a platform for both established stars and up-and-coming talent to shine.
Tune in to SNL tonight at 11:30 p.m. EST / 8:30 p.m. PST on NBC and Peacock to catch the latest episode and witness the magic unfold. As the year draws to a close, SNL remains a beacon of creativity and entertainment, bringing joy and laughter to homes across the country.
