"Weekend Update" and other segments will be produced remotely. Saturday Night Live is returning to NBC -- sorta. The late night sketch comedy will be back with a special remote episode set to air April 11 at 11:30 p.m.
ET/PT on NBC. The series, which suspended production amid the novel coronavirus crisis, will produce new material remotely while continuing to practice social distancing.
The episode will include the popular "Weekend Update" segment as well as other original content from SNL castmembers. There will not be a host.
Right now, the episode is considered a one-off, and it's unclear if SNL will resume any sort of weekly new episode schedule.
