After a three-week holiday hiatus, Saturday Night Live returned to the airwaves on Dec. 6 with one of their favorite hosts: Five-Timers Club member Melissa McCarthy. The timing couldn't be better, since she was just hired to be the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree Star (everyone needs a side hustle).

Sarah Sherman knows she “bombed” while opening for Adam Sandler’s You’re My Best Friend Tour, and she has a pretty good idea of precisely what went wrong.

Yes! You can stream new episodes of SNL live or on demand on Peacock. The Melissa McCarthy episode will be available to watch on demand on Peacock beginning Sunday, December 7. You bet. You can add Peacock to your Prime Video account for an additional $16.99/month (Peacock Premium Plus). Amazon offers a seven-day free trial for new subscribers.

Melissa McCarthy returns to host 'Saturday Night Live' for the sixth time, making her one of only four women to host at least 5 times, tying her with Drew Barrymore, Tina Fey, and Scarlett Johansson.

Turns out, Ashley Padilla's funny bad haircut sketch on Saturday Night Live was based on a true story. Padilla, who joined the cast of the show in 2024, explained on Thursday's episode of Late Night With Seth Meyers, that a bit showing her pretending to like her ridiculous new haircut was something she wrote from experience.

Saturday Night Live season 51’s episode 7 would feature Melissa McCarthy as the host and Grammy-nominated Dijon as the musical guest.

Padilla has been one of the stars with the most screentime this year with 45 minutes on screen, six minutes more than Chloe Fineman and Sarah Sherman.

In promos for this weekend's new episode of Saturday Night Live, castmember Andrew Dismukes has the hardest time placing the accents of host Josh O'Connor and musical guest Lily Allen.

Melissa McCarthy's dramatic weight loss on "Saturday Night Live" has fans stunned, with viewers praising her appearance during her opening monologue.

Step three: On Saturday, standby card holders once again line up by their new number and wait — this time in the NBC gift shop inside 30 Rock, no later than 6:30 p.m. for the dress rehearsal, or 9:45 p.m. for the live show.

HBO gave Sarah Sherman no limits. When she filmed her first comedy special, Sarah Squirm: Live + In the Flesh, she wanted it to showcase all the wild, out-of-the-box elements of her stage act. She knew that was a tall order—her comedy generally focuses on the terrifying and gross aspects of bodies in explicit detail.

Melissa McCarthy is hosting Saturday Night Live on Saturday, Dec. 6 at 11:30 p.m. There are several ways to watch with a free live stream. The episode will be the 7th episode of the show's 51st season.
