"With five cast members exiting before season 51 (including mainstays Ego Nwodim and Heidi Gardner) and five cast members added as featured players, this season of the show promises change. Luckily, an old friend is stopping by for the first episode of the season: Bad Bunny, who hosted episodes in both season 49 and 50, is returning to host the season premiere on October 4."
"Then, podcast host (and former SNL cast member) Amy Poehler is going to be a good hang, hosting the October 11 episode. Poehler hasn't hosted the show since 2015, when she co-hosted an episode with Tina Fey, and hasn't hosted solo since 2010. Role Model will be the guest for her episode. The episode is set to be a landmark event; SNL premiered exactly 50 years prior on October 11, 1975."
Season 51 of Saturday Night Live begins with multiple cast changes, as five cast members leave and five featured players join. Bad Bunny returns to host the premiere on October 4, with Doja Cat as musical guest promoting her album Vie, out September 26. Amy Poehler hosts the October 11 episode, marking the show's 50th anniversary to the original premiere date, with Role Model as musical guest. Sabrina Carpenter hosts on October 18 after previously performing and appearing at the SNL50 special. The season promises a mix of returning stars and new performers.
