To mark the 50th season of “Saturday Night Live,” putting together 90 minutes of live TV in six days - already a herculean feat - is not enough. In addition, the venerable variety show is flooding the zone with shows of its pop cultural might.

NBC’s live sketch comedy variety show returns to our screens soon after a four-week break. Here’s who will be entertaining us.

The four-part docuseries, Peacock said, will feature legendary cast members and alumni including Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, Amy Poehler, Seth Meyers and more.

There are books — the best of which is still “ Live From New York: An Uncensored History of Saturday Night Live ” — and countless movies, including a 2010 documentary and a 2024 feature, both titled “Saturday Night,” and a slew of comedies derived from popular “SNL” sketches, notably “The Blues Brothers” and “ Wayne’s World .”

Saturday Night”—a comedy about the first episode of NBC’s “Saturday Night Live”—is coming soon to Netflix. Find out when you can stream it at home.

The four-part series taps Will Ferrell, Tina Fey, Bill Hader, Amy Poehler, Pete Davidson and more 'SNL' staples, with each episode breaking down a different aspect of the cultural phenomenon.
