Is SNL New Tonight, March 21? This Week’s Episode & the Show’s Upcoming Schedule

The last three weeks of Saturday Night Live have seen debut Host Connor Storrie, return favorite Ryan Gosling, and superstar Harry Styles bringing the goods in memorable back-to-back-to-back episodes.
How to Watch
Watch Saturday Night Live Saturdays at 11:30/10:30c on NBC and next day on Peacock.
So with tonight’s March 21 episode, will SNL make it four straight weeks of brand-new sketches?
There’s a soon to be five-time Host on the horizon — not to mention the exciting across-the-pond Saturday Night Live UK spinoff launching this very night with Host Tina Fey.
Get the details on all this and more, below.

Is Saturday Night Live new tonight, March 21?
No — tonight’s episode will be a repeat of the November 15, 2025, episode Hosted by Glen Powell, with Olivia Dean as the Musical Guest.
Powell’s episode included sketches like “AI Photo,” which pushed the boundaries of absurdist comedy in the funniest way possible, and “Norwegian Movie,” in which Powell went toe-to-toe with Chloe Fineman to see who could out-accent the other in a sketch that’s since spawned a sequel with January 31 Host Alexander Skarsgård’s and his father, Stellan Skarsgård.
Did we mention Powell was also a big part of the long-awaited SNL return of MacGruber?!
And of course, Powell’s episode also gave us the first live sketch appearance of Marcello Hernández-as-Sebastian Maniscalco in “Sebastian Maniscalco: Bachelor Party.”
Given how many laugh-out-loud moments have occurred so often in Season 51, it makes sense to give viewers some time to catch their breath. But don’t worry, new episodes of SNL are right around the corner.

April 4, 2026. That’s when SNL returns with a brand-new episode Hosted by Jack Black, with Jack White as the Musical Guest. That’s right: It’s a special Black-and-White event!
