Sun Apr 20 04:10:00 UTC 2025: ## SNL Takes a Break After Historic Season 50 Run

**New York, NY** – Saturday Night Live (SNL) is taking a much-needed week off after a whirlwind three-episode run that capped off a portion of its landmark 50th season. The past few weeks have seen a stellar lineup of hosts, including Mikey Madison in her SNL debut, Jack Black in his fourth hosting gig (memorable for his Flamin’ Hot Cheetos commercial and musical guests Elton John and Brandi Carlile), and Jon Hamm, returning for his fourth time after a fourteen-year cameo streak. Hamm’s appearance featured a memorable Easter-themed cold open and a viral sketch, “The White POTUS,” reuniting him with former cast members.

While this week marks a break for the cast and crew, SNL’s 50th season has already delivered a string of memorable moments, including Dave Chappelle’s record-breaking monologue in January. Fans can catch up on past episodes and specials, including a look back at 50 years of musical performances and a four-part documentary, all streaming on Peacock.
