SNL Host Tonight: Comedian John Mulaney Returns For Fifth Time...
John Mulaney will host Saturday Night Live tonight, marking his fifth time leading the iconic sketch comedy show. The Emmy-winning comedian and former SNL writer is a fan favorite, sparking excitement ahead of the April 12 episode. Musical guest LCD Soundsystem will also perform, adding to the anticipation.
Mulaney's previous SNL hosting stints have been widely praised, particularly his 2020 episode featuring a Babe Ruth monologue and a memorable "Airport Sushi" sketch. His return comes as SNL wraps its 51st season, with only a few episodes left before the summer hiatus.
The episode is trending today as fans speculate whether Mulaney will address his recent stand-up special Baby J or current events. Social media is buzzing with predictions, including potential cameos from frequent collaborators like Pete Davidson or Bill Hader.
SNL airs live at 11:30 PM ET on NBC, with streaming available next day on Peacock. This season has seen strong ratings, boosted by high-profile hosts like Sydney Sweeney and Ryan Gosling earlier this year.
Mulaney's hosting gig coincides with renewed interest in his career following his 2023 Netflix special. Critics and audiences alike have praised his candid humor about personal struggles, making tonight's episode one of the most anticipated of the season.
