'Saturday Night Live' Set to Make a Comeback with Non-Acting Hosts
Saturday Night Live is expected to return for Season 49 on either October 7 or 14, pending a vote by the Writers Guild of America (WGA). The strike by the writers cut Season 48 short by three episodes. While the actors are not on strike, some cast members may be unwilling to return until the strike with SAG-AFTRA is resolved. There are also decisions to be made regarding casting and hosting choices, with musicians like Taylor Swift and suggestions for guests like Alexandria Ocasio Cortez being considered. More details are expected in the next 48 hours.
