**Headline: ‘Saturday Night Live’ Season 51 Countdown Begins with Look Back at Mulaney-Hosted, Roan-Powered Episode**

**New York, NY -** With the highly anticipated 51st season of NBC’s “Saturday Night Live” just two weeks away, the network is whetting fans’ appetites by revisiting a memorable episode from Season 50. The episode, hosted by John Mulaney with musical guest Chappell Roan, originally aired on November 2, 2024, and is getting a re-airing.

The show featured a “Cut For Time” sketch parodying a famous scene from the 1978 Superman film, starring John Mulaney and Sarah Sherman. However, Roan’s performance really set the stage on fire. Chappell Roan delivered killer performances of “Pink Pony Club” and her then-unreleased single, “The Giver.”

“Saturday Night Live” also recently announced its initial hosts and musical guests for Season 51: Bad Bunny with musical guest Doja Cat (Oct. 4), Amy Poehler with musical guest Role Model (Oct. 11), and Sabrina Carpenter pulling double duty as both host and musical guest (Oct. 18).

The Season 51 cast includes a mix of returning favorites like Michael Che, Colin Jost, Kenan Thompson, and Bowen Yang, alongside featured players Ashley Padilla and Jane Wickline. This season will also welcome newcomers Ben Marshall, Tommy Brennan, Jeremy Culhane, Kam Patterson, and Veronika Slowikowska to the iconic Studio 8H stage.
