The forty-second season of NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” got off to a hot start. This past weekend’s episode, which featured host Margot Robbie and musical guest The Weeknd, was the most watched season premiere in years.
“SNL” hopes to continue the momentum this Saturday.
The episode will feature “Hamilton”‘s Lin-Manuel Miranda in his debut as host and twenty one pilots as a first-time musical act.
In advance of Saturday’s episode, NBC issued a teaser video featuring Miranda, twenty one pilots and repertory player Aidy Bryant.
