SNL Fans Await New Episodes After March 22 Rerun

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Fans of “Saturday Night Live” will find themselves without a new episode on March 22, 2025, as the show is set to re-air a previously aired episode from December 21, 2024. This episode, hosted by Martin Short with musical guest Hozier, includes a special cold open featuring members of the illustrious Five-Timers Club.

Despite the lack of a new SNL episode this weekend, the show kicks off a new round of episodes starting March 29, 2025. Mikey Madison, known for her role in the film “Anora,” will make her hosting debut. She will be accompanied by country artist Morgan Wallen in his second appearance as SNL’s musical guest.
