Saturday Night Live’s historic 50th anniversary special airs Sunday, February 16 at 8:00 p.m. ET live on NBC and Peacock.
It’s been a wild ride. From the Blues Brothers and “James Brown Celebrity Hot Tub Party” to the weird, wonderful brilliance of out-of-the-box sketches like “Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer” and “Technology Hump,” SNL is the gold standard of late-night comedy. Where exactly would I be without Saturday Night Live in my life? Who knows. Probably living in a van down by the river.
If you’re feeling nostalgic, Jason Reitman’s biographical dramedy Saturday Night is currently streaming on Netflix, and SNL50: Beyond Saturday Night and Ladies & Gentlemen… 50 Years of SNL Music are available to watch on Peacock.
