How it started

Saturday Night Live has announced another return for John Mulaney. He will host the November 14 episode, his seventh time in the role, The Wrap TV reported.

The booking is part of the NBC sketch show's next three-episode run in Season 52. Deadline Hollywood reported that Inde Navarrette and Druski are the other newly announced hosts.

How it unfolded

The October 22 coverage set out a schedule beginning on October 31. Navarrette will host that night as SNL returns with a new live episode, according to Deadline Hollywood.

Druski follows on November 7. Variety Movies described him as the first digital content creator to headline the late-night sketch series and said his hosting appearance had previously been reported.

The Strokes are paired with Druski, according to Stereogum. Consequence of Sound reported that the band's appearance will be its fifth turn as SNL's musical guest.

Mulaney closes this announced run on November 14. Phoebe Bridgers will be his musical guest, Stereogum reported.

Where it stands

Mulaney's seventh hosting appearance is scheduled for the third consecutive show in the run beginning October 31, The Wrap TV reported.

What to watch
