Is SNL new tonight?

Yes. A new episode of Saturday Night Live airs tonight, Jan. 24, at 11:30 PM ET/10:30 PM CT on NBC and will be available to stream the next day on Peacock.

Who’s hosting and who’s the musical guest?

Teyana Taylor is the host for tonight’s episode. The multi-hyphenate performer — singer, dancer, actress, choreographer and designer — recently earned a Supporting Actress Oscar nomination and a Golden Globe win, and she’s making her first appearance as an SNL host.

Indie rock band Geese will be the musical guest, marking their first performance on SNL as well. The group is touring off the critical acclaim of their 2025 album Getting Killed.

What to expect

As a first-time host, Taylor is likely to bring elements of her music, choreography and acting experience to the show — from a high-energy monologue to sketches that play to her strengths. Geese’s set should showcase tracks from their acclaimed album and give the band a national showcase on live TV.

Last week’s episode returned SNL from winter hiatus with Finn Wolfhard as host and A$AP Rocky as musical guest, featuring guest appearances and sketches that set a lively tone for Season 51.

Looking ahead

Next week’s episode lists Alexander Skarsgård as host and Cardi B as the musical guest. Skarsgård makes his SNL debut tied to the release of the film Pillion, while Cardi B returns to the SNL stage for the first time since 2018.

More on SNL Season 51

Season 51 features returning cast members and several new featured players added in October 2025. The season mixes established stars and fresh faces, keeping Studio 8H a regular source of surprise and viral sketches.

Quick reminder: tune in on NBC at 11:30 PM ET/10:30 PM CT or stream on Peacock the next day to catch Teyana Taylor’s SNL debut and Geese’s first performance on the show.
