“Saturday Night Live” will celebrate its 50th anniversary with a live, three-hour special on Sunday at 8 p.m. Eastern on NBC and Peacock. The event will feature a lineup of past cast members, hosts, and musical guests.
Comedy legends like Eddie Murphy, Tina Fey, and Will Ferrell will join the celebration, along with iconic hosts such as Steve Martin and Tom Hanks. Music stars, including Paul McCartney and Miley Cyrus, are also expected to appear, though performances remain a surprise.
The milestone event follows months of tributes, including a concert at Radio City Music Hall and a documentary on SNL’s musical history. The show’s legacy continues, with sketches still drawing millions of online viewers.
