Featuring host David Harbour and musical guest Camila Cabello, this weekend’s “Saturday Night Live” marked the third installment of the 45th season.

From a ratings standpoint, it fared similarly to the second episode.

Citing metered market data, NBC notes that the episode drew a 3.8 overnight household rating. It meanwhile posted a 1.7 adults 18-49 rating in the Top 25 markets.

Last week’s episode, which featured host Phoebe Waller-Bridge and musical guest Taylor Swift, drew a slightly stronger 4.0 household rating but the same 1.7 adults 18-49 number.

Per NBC, further historical comparisons are impossible due to a methodology change introduced last week.

Consistent with the show’s recent trend, the Harbour-Cabello “SNL” should receive a sizable spike from delayed viewership. Individual clips will also post big streaming numbers.
