“Saturday Night Live” is gaining momentum.
After a series of exceptional performances, including those from new hosts Inde Navarrette and Druski, a familiar face will return to the Studio 8H stage: comedian John Mulaney.
A member of the show’s “five timers club,” Mulaney returns for his seventh guest host slot. Before turning to comedy and acting full time, the Chicago native wrote for “SNL” and co-created the fan-favorite character Stefon, played by former actor Bill Hader.
Mulaney remembers feeling “absolutely terrified” about hosting “SNL” for the first time, even though he knew all the ins and outs after working there as an editor for five years.
“I was like a waiter,” Mulaney admitted to NPR in a March 2019 interview. “I was like, ‘I know all the secrets, and I know all the ins and outs, and I know how to sneak out of the kitchen, and I know where we get the meat delivered from.'”
“…(But) performing something that you’ve written and trying to listen to the jokes while making sure you’re on your mark and looking into the right camera and then being pulled in to do the costume fittings. – It was scary,” he continued.
Mulaney will be joined on stage by this week’s musical guest, indie rocker Phoebe Bridgers. The “Motion Sickness” singer hit the road for The Lost Tour in September, marking her first major solo tour since 2023.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of tonight’s show, including how to tune in.
