Episodenguide
1. Staffel 1 (24 Episoden • 1975)
Die erste Staffel von Saturday Night Live, der 90-minütigen amerikanischen Sketch-Comedy- und Varieté-Show, die wöchentlich spätabends auf NBC lief, wurde in der Fernsehsaison 1975/76 ausgestrahlt. Saturday Night Live feierte am 11. Oktober 1975 Premiere und umfasste insgesamt 24 Folgen, von denen die letzte am 31. Juli 1976 ausgestrahlt wurde.
1974 bat Johnny Carson, der Moderator der NBC Tonight Show, darum, die Wochenendausstrahlungen von „Best of Carson“ einzustellen, damit er zwei Wochentage frei nehmen könne und NBC die Wiederholungen an diesen Abenden selbst ausstrahlen könne, anstatt sie den Partnerstationen für die Ausstrahlung an Samstagen oder Sonntagen zur Verfügung zu stellen. Angesichts Carsons unangefochtener Position als Doyen des Late-Night-Fernsehens wertete NBC seine Bitte als Ultimatum, da man befürchtete, er könnte die Angelegenheit zum Anlass nehmen, zu ABC oder CBS zu wechseln. Um die Lücke zu füllen, entwickelte der Sender einige Ideen und holte Dick Ebersol – einen Schützling des legendären ABC-Sportpräsidenten Roone Arledge – an Bord, um eine 90-minütige Late-Night-Varieté-Show zu entwickeln. Ebersols erste Amtshandlung war die Einstellung des jungen kanadischen Produzenten Lorne Michaels als Showrunner.

2. Staffel 2 (23 Episoden • 1976)
Die zweite Staffel von „Saturday Night Live“ lief in der Fernsehsaison 1976/77 auf NBC. Sie begann am 18. September 1976 und endete am 21. Mai 1977.
Diese Staffel brachte die ersten von vielen Besetzungswechseln bei SNL mit sich. Chevy Chase, der eine Filmkarriere in Kalifornien anstrebte, verließ die Show nach der Folge vom 30. Oktober, die von Buck Henry moderiert wurde; musikalischer Gast war The Band. Jane Curtin übernahm nach Chases Abgang als erste Frau die Moderation von „Weekend Update“. Am 15. Januar 1977 stieß Bill Murray zum Ensemble, um die durch Chases Weggang entstandene Lücke zu füllen.
Auch der Name der Show änderte sich in dieser Staffel. Nach der Absetzung von ABCs „Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell“ benannte NBC seine Sendung von „NBC's Saturday Night“ in „Saturday Night Live“ um. Dies geschah in der Folge mit Moderator Jack Burns im Jahr 1977.
Es war auch das letzte Mal, dass die Muppets in der Show auftraten. In einem Playboy-Interview von 1977 bezeichnete der damalige Chefautor und Darsteller Michael O'Donoghue die Muppets als „diese verdammten Muppets, diese kleinen haarigen Waschlappen“, die „aus dem Müll nach Woodstock gemacht“ seien. Er weigerte sich außerdem, für sie zu schreiben, mit den Worten: „Ich schreibe nicht für Filz.“ O'Donoghue hatte auch einen gelynchten Bibo in seinem Büro hängen.

3. Staffel 3 (20 Episoden • 1977)
Die dritte Staffel von „Saturday Night Live“ lief in der Fernsehsaison 1977/78 auf NBC. Sie begann am 24. September 1977 und endete am 20. Mai 1978. Die DVD der kompletten Staffel erschien am 13. Mai 2008.
Das gesamte Ensemble der vorherigen Staffel kehrte für die dritte Staffel zurück. Außerdem wurde das Konzept des „Gaststars“ eingeführt. Die Autoren Tom Davis und Al Franken wurden Teil des festen Ensembles.
Die Staffel ist auch wegen des Wettbewerbs „Anyone Can Host“ (Jeder kann moderieren) bemerkenswert. Zu Beginn der Staffel warb die Show für diesen Wettbewerb, bei dem eine Person ohne Prominentenstatus die Sendung moderieren durfte. Die Gewinnerin war die 80-jährige Großmutter Miskel Spillman, die einzige Nicht-Prominente, die je eine SNL-Folge moderiert hat. Während Spillmans Show unterbrach der musikalische Gast Elvis Costello seine Band, die Attractions, nach sieben Sekunden des Songs „Less Than Zero“ und spielte stattdessen „Radio Radio“, einen bis dahin unveröffentlichten Song, der die etablierten Medien kritisierte. Diese Änderung verärgerte Lorne Michaels, der Costello daraufhin für eine Weile von der Show ausschloss.
Chevy Chase moderierte ebenfalls in dieser Staffel und war damit das erste ehemalige Ensemblemitglied, das nach seinem Ausscheiden als Moderator zurückkehrte. Hinter den Kulissen gerieten Chase und Bill Murray in eine körperliche Auseinandersetzung, die von John Belushi und Dan Aykroyd unterbrochen wurde. Chase warf Murray später vor, ihn am Set in den Schatten stellen zu wollen und sich abfällig über Chases Frau geäußert zu haben. Chase moderierte die Show im Laufe ihrer Geschichte noch mehrmals, obwohl er beim Ensemble und der Crew unbeliebt war.

5. Staffel 5 (21 Episoden • 1979)
Die fünfte Staffel von „Saturday Night Live“ lief in der Fernsehsaison 1979/80 auf NBC und war gleichzeitig die letzte Staffel mit der Originalbesetzung. Sie begann am 13. Oktober 1979 und endete am 24. Mai 1980. Die fünfte Staffel von SNL wurde am 1. Dezember 2009 auf DVD veröffentlicht.
John Belushi und Dan Aykroyd verließen die Show am Ende der vierten Staffel und hinterließen eine Lücke, die viele Fans für das Ende der Late-Night-Sketchshow hielten.
Um die Show am Leben zu erhalten, beförderte Lorne Michaels viele der Autoren zu festen Mitgliedern des Ensembles: Peter Aykroyd, Jim Downey, Brian Doyle-Murray, Don Novello, Tom Schiller und Alan Zweibel. Auch Bandleader Paul Shaffer schloss sich der Besetzung an und war damit das erste Mitglied der SNL-Band, das zum festen Bestandteil der Show wurde. Harry Shearer kam als Gastdarsteller hinzu und wurde im Laufe der Staffel zum regulären Mitglied befördert.
Dies sollte die letzte Staffel für alle Darsteller dieser Besetzung sein. Tom Davis und Downey kehrten in späteren Staffeln als Autoren zur Show zurück. Al Franken, Doyle-Murray, Novello und Shearer gehörten in späteren Staffeln wieder zur Besetzung.

7. Staffel 7 (20 Episoden • 1981)
Die siebte Staffel von "Saturday Night Live" lief in der Fernsehsaison 1981/82 auf NBC. Sie begann am 3. Oktober 1981 und endete am 22. Mai 1982 mit insgesamt 20 ausgestrahlten Folgen.
Nach der Entlassung von Produzentin Jean Doumanian und des größten Teils ihres Ensembles wurde die Show aufgrund des Beginns des WGA-Streiks 1981 unterbrochen.
Dick Ebersol, der Entwickler der Sendung, wurde als Doumanians Nachfolger eingestellt. Das neue Ensemble für diese Staffel bestand aus denselben Darstellern, die bereits in der von Ebersol produzierten Folge vom 11. April 1981 zu sehen waren: Robin Duke, Tim Kazurinsky und Tony Rosato sowie Eddie Murphy und Joe Piscopo, die einzigen verbliebenen Mitglieder aus der Doumanian-Ära. Denny Dillon und Gail Matthius wurden nach der Folge im April 1981 entlassen, während Laurie Metcalf und Emily Prager, die nie in der Show aufgetreten war, keine neuen Verträge erhielten.
Ebersol engagierte dann zwei neue Darstellerinnen: Mary Gross und Christine Ebersole. Beide sollten die Lücken füllen, die Metcalf und Prager hinterlassen hatten.
Um die Show von den ersten fünf Staffeln abzuheben, strich Ebersol den beliebten Eröffnungssatz "Live from New York, It's Saturday Night!" aus den Cold Openings. Tatsächlich wurden die Cold Openings manchmal komplett weggelassen und auch die Monologe fast vollständig übersprungen. Diese Änderungen waren jedoch nicht von Dauer, da Ebersol sie für die achte Staffel wieder rückgängig machte.

8. Staffel 8 (20 Episoden • 1982)
Die achte Staffel von „Saturday Night Live“ wurde in der Fernsehsaison 1982/83 auf NBC ausgestrahlt. Sie begann am 25. September 1982 und endete am 14. Mai 1983. Es war die dritte Staffel seit dem Ausscheiden von Lorne Michaels als ausführender Produzent.
Vor Beginn der Staffel gab es einige Veränderungen. Brian Doyle-Murray, Christine Ebersole und Tony Rosato wurden aus dem Ensemble entlassen, um Platz für neue Mitglieder zu schaffen. Neu dabei waren Brad Hall, Julia Louis-Dreyfus und Gary Kroeger.
Dick Ebersol führte die „Cold Openings“ wieder ein, die mit dem bekannten Satz „Live from New York, it's Saturday Night!“ endeten, sowie die Monologe der jeweiligen Moderatoren. Außerdem benannte er „Weekend Update“ zum zweiten Mal um, diesmal in „Saturday Night News“. Da Doyle-Murray und Ebersole die Show verlassen hatten, wurde ein neuer Moderator für dieses Segment benötigt. Hall bekam den Job.
Zu den Höhepunkten der Staffel gehörte die Moderation von Drew Barrymore – der jüngsten Person, die jemals die Show moderiert hat. Während ihrer Folge konnten die Zuschauer per Telefonabstimmung darüber entscheiden, ob Andy Kaufman von der Show ausgeschlossen werden sollte. Am Ende der Show wurde Kaufman tatsächlich ein dauerhaftes Auftrittsverbot bei SNL erteilt.

11. Staffel 11 (18 Episoden • 1985)
Die elfte Staffel von „Saturday Night Live“ lief in der Fernsehsaison 1985/86 auf NBC. Sie begann am 9. November 1985 und endete am 24. Mai 1986 mit insgesamt 18 Folgen.
Dick Ebersol verließ die Show nach der Saison 1984/85, nachdem der Sender seinen Wunsch abgelehnt hatte, die Sendung für sechs Monate komplett einzustellen und einen Großteil des Materials aufzuzeichnen, anstatt live zu senden. NBC erwog erneut kurzzeitig, die Show abzusetzen, doch Programmchef Brandon Tartikoff entschied sich für die Fortsetzung und die Wiedereinstellung des ehemaligen Produzenten Lorne Michaels.
Die Aufgabe, die Michaels nun übernahm, war in mancher Hinsicht schwieriger als die, die er 1975 begonnen hatte. Sein Ruf als Wunderkind hatte etwas gelitten. Sein letztes Projekt, „The New Show“ aus der vorherigen Saison, hatte die Kritiker verwirrt und das Publikum gelangweilt. Außerdem war die Saison 1984/85 ein großer Erfolg bei Kritikern und Publikum gewesen, mit unvergesslichen Charakteren und herausragenden Darstellern. Michaels war jedoch nicht der einzige aus der alten Garde, der zurückkehrte: Auch die ursprünglichen Autoren Al Franken und Tom Davis kehrten als Produzenten zurück, und Jim Downey wurde Chefautor. Fans und Kritiker begrüßten die Rückkehr von Michaels und vielen der ursprünglichen Produzenten und Autoren als eine Rückkehr zu den Wurzeln der Show.

18. Staffel 18 (20 Episoden • 1992)
Die achtzehnte Staffel von „Saturday Night Live“ lief in der Fernsehsaison 1992/93 auf NBC. Sie begann am 26. September 1992 und endete am 15. Mai 1993.
Vor Beginn der Staffel gab es einige Veränderungen. Langzeitmitglied Victoria Jackson verließ die Show nach sechs Staffeln. Die neueren Mitglieder Beth Cahill und Siobhan Fallon wurden entlassen, um Platz im Ensemble zu schaffen.
Anders als in den beiden vorherigen Staffeln stellte Lorne Michaels keine neuen Darsteller ein. Ellen Cleghorne, Melanie Hutsell, Tim Meadows, Adam Sandler, Robert Smigel und David Spade blieben weiterhin als feste Mitglieder im Ensemble. Rob Schneider wurde in den Hauptcast befördert.
Langzeitmitglied Dana Carvey entschied sich, die Show mitten in der Staffel zu verlassen. Es sollte auch die letzte Staffel für Chris Rock und Robert Smigel sein.
Nach drei Jahren bei SNL beschloss Rock, die Show am Ende der Staffel zu verlassen. Er hatte den Eindruck, nie seine eigene Stimme in der Show gefunden zu haben und wollte sich stattdessen auf seine Stand-up-Karriere konzentrieren. Autor und Darsteller Smigel verließ die Show, um Chefautor der „Late Night with Conan O'Brien“ zu werden, kehrte aber 1996 zurück, um die „TV Funhouse“-Cartoons zu schreiben und zu produzieren.
Diese Staffel beherbergte auch einen der berüchtigtsten Momente von SNL: Sinéad O'Connor zerriss am Ende ihres zweiten Auftritts in der von Tim Robbins moderierten Folge ein Foto von Papst Johannes Paul II.

Sinead O'Connor performs: ""Success Has Made A Failure of Our Home"" and an a cappella version of the song ""War"" that ends with the infamous destruction of Pope John Paul II's photograph and Sinead's words ""Fight the real enemy!""
The reruns on NBC and syndication (if they do air) either end the performance of the second song before the picture is ripped (which is the version that played on Comedy Central) or replace it with a dress rehearsal where Sinead O'Connor holds up a picture of a starving child, then walks off the stage (which played on NBC).

Die einundzwanzigste Staffel begann am 30. September 1995 und endete am 18. Mai 1996. 20 Folgen wurden produziert. SNL entging nach den niedrigen Einschaltquoten und vernichtenden Kritiken über den Qualitätsverlust der zwanzigsten Staffel erneut der Absetzung. Nur fünf Darsteller – Norm Macdonald, Mark McKinney, Tim Meadows, Molly Shannon und David Spade – kehrten aus der vorherigen Staffel zurück. Dies sollte die letzte Staffel für David Spade sein. Er hatte sich bereit erklärt, nur ein Jahr zu bleiben, um eine Brücke zwischen dem alten und dem neuen Ensemble zu schlagen. Die Neuzugänge David Koechner und Nancy Walls wurden nach dieser Staffel ebenfalls entlassen.

30. Staffel 30 (20 Episoden • 2004)
Saturday Night Live ging 2004-2005 auf NBC in die dreißigste Staffel. Die Staffel startete am 2. Oktober 2004 und endete am 21. Mai 2005 mit insgesamt 20 Folgen.
Vor Beginn dieser Staffel verließ Jimmy Fallon die Show. Daraufhin wurde Fred Armisen zum festen Ensemblemitglied befördert, während Finesse Mitchell und Kenan Thompson weiterhin als Gastdarsteller mitwirkten.
Neu im Ensemble dieser Staffel war unter anderem Rob Riggle, Impro-Comedian und ehemaliger US-Marine. Es sollte Riggles einzige Staffel bei SNL bleiben. Außerdem stieß SNL-Autor Jason Sudeikis für die letzten drei Folgen der Staffel als Gastdarsteller zum Team.
Nach Fallons Abgang wurde Amy Poehler Tina Feys Co-Moderatorin beim „Weekend Update“. Fey und Poehler waren damit das erste weibliche Moderatoren-Duo.
Diese Staffel war auch wegen Ashlee Simpsons berüchtigtem Playback-Patzer während ihres zweiten Auftritts bemerkenswert. Außerdem enthielt sie viele Sketche über die US-Präsidentschaftswahlen 2004, die aber im Gegensatz zu den Wahlen im Jahr 2000 kaum mediale Beachtung fanden.

31. Staffel 31 (19 Episoden • 2005)
„Saturday Night Live“ lief mit seiner 31. Staffel in der Fernsehsaison 2005/06 auf NBC. Die Staffel begann am 1. Oktober 2005 und endete am 20. Mai 2006 mit insgesamt 19 Folgen. Aufgrund der Olympischen Winterspiele 2006 wurde die Staffel um eine Folge gekürzt. Ein Special zum 30-jährigen Jubiläum der Show war geplant, wurde aber aus Budgetgründen gestrichen.
Vor Beginn der Staffel wurde Rob Riggle entlassen. Finesse Mitchell und Kenan Thompson wurden beide in den Hauptcast befördert, während Jason Sudeikis weiterhin als festes Ensemblemitglied blieb.
Die Show begrüßte drei neue Darsteller: den in Los Angeles lebenden Sketch-Comedian Bill Hader, Andy Samberg und Kristen Wiig von den Groundlings. Wiig debütierte im November in der Folge mit Gastmoderator Jason Lee. Samberg, Schaffer und Taccone sollten eine wichtige Rolle bei der Entstehung der SNL Digital Shorts spielen. Ein solcher Kurzfilm war „Lazy Sunday“, der nach seiner Ausstrahlung in der Folge mit Jack Black zum Internetphänomen wurde.
Tina Fey und Maya Rudolph verpassten einige Folgen dieser Staffel aufgrund ihrer Schwangerschaften und des damit verbundenen Mutterschaftsurlaubs. Feys Platz bei „Weekend Update“ wurde vorübergehend von Horatio Sanz übernommen, bis sie in der Folge mit Catherine Zeta-Jones zurückkehrte. Damit war Sanz der erste hispanische Moderator von „Weekend Update“. Fey kehrte zur Show zurück, bevor ihr Mutterschaftsurlaub abgelaufen war. Maya Rudolph hingegen trat in der ersten Folge der neuen Staffel auf, ging dann in Mutterschaftsurlaub und kehrte im Februar in der Folge mit Steve Martin zurück.

32. Staffel 32 (20 Episoden • 2006)
Saturday Night Live strahlte seine 32. Staffel in der Fernsehsaison 2006/2007 aus. Die Staffel begann am 30. September 2006 und endete am 19. Mai 2007 mit insgesamt 20 Folgen.
Vor Staffelbeginn musste die Show massive Budgetkürzungen hinnehmen. Finesse Mitchell, Chris Parnell und Horatio Sanz wurden aufgrund dieser Kürzungen entlassen. Für Parnell war es bereits die zweite Entlassung aus Budgetgründen, die erste erfolgte nach Staffel 26. Zusätzlich verließen Rachel Dratch und Tina Fey die Show freiwillig, um an 30 Rock zu arbeiten.
Bill Hader, Andy Samberg, Jason Sudeikis und Kristen Wiig wurden alle in den Hauptcast befördert. Aufgrund der Budgetkürzungen des Senders gab es zum ersten Mal seit der 23. Staffel keine neuen Ensemblemitglieder.
Nach einem Qualitätstief seit Staffel 27 konnten Folgen mit Gastgebern wie Shia LaBeouf, Dane Cook, Alec Baldwin, Jeremy Piven, Rainn Wilson und Peyton Manning hohe Einschaltquoten erzielen und das Interesse an der Show neu entfachen. Nach Feys Abschied kehrte Saturday Night Live im „Weekend Update“ wieder zu einem männlichen und einem weiblichen Moderator zurück, wobei Seth Meyers Amy Poehlers Co-Moderator wurde. Don Roy King wurde als neuer Regisseur für SNL engagiert.

33. Staffel 33 (12 Episoden • 2007)
Die 33. Staffel von "Saturday Night Live" lief in der Fernsehsaison 2007/2008 auf NBC.
Aufgrund des Streiks der Writers Guild of America 2007/08 wurden in dieser Staffel nur 12 statt der üblichen 20 Folgen produziert. Damit ist sie die kürzeste Staffel in der Geschichte der Serie und unterbietet sowohl die sechste als auch die dreizehnte Staffel, die jeweils 13 Folgen hatten. Es ist außerdem die einzige Staffel von SNL ohne neue Weihnachtsfolge, da sich der Streik der WGA von November 2007 bis Februar 2008 erstreckte.
Im Sommer gab es keine Besetzungsänderungen, alle aus der vorherigen Staffel kehrten zurück. Während des Streiks verließ das langjährige Ensemblemitglied Maya Rudolph die Show, da sie in diesem Jahr keinen Vertrag mit SNL hatte. Casey Wilson, Schauspielerin und Autorin, die regelmäßig im Upright Citizens Brigade Theater auftritt, wurde im Januar 2008 engagiert, um die Lücke zu füllen. Aufgrund des Streiks hatte sie ihren ersten Auftritt jedoch erst nach dessen Ende am 23. Februar 2008.
Am 5. November 2007, nach der von Brian Williams moderierten Folge, trat die Writers Guild of America in den Streik. Es wurde angekündigt, dass SNL die nächste Folge am 10. November 2007 live ausstrahlen würde, gefolgt von einer weiteren Folge mit Jonah Hill und dem musikalischen Gast Kid Rock. Am 7. November 2007 bestätigte die offizielle SNL-Website jedoch, dass diese Folgen abgesagt wurden und ab dem 10. November Wiederholungen gezeigt würden, solange der Streik andauerte. Sowohl die Rock/Winehouse-Show als auch die Folge mit Jonah Hill/Kid Rock wurden gestrichen.

34. Staffel 34 (22 Episoden • 2008)
Die 34. Staffel der Sketch-Show „Saturday Night Live“ lief von 2008 bis 2009 auf NBC. Um die durch den Streik der Writers Guild of America 2007/2008 ausgefallenen Folgen zu kompensieren, umfasste diese Staffel 22 Episoden. Damit war sie die längste Staffel seit der zweiten.
Die Staffelpremiere fand am 13. September 2008 auf NBC statt. Gastgeber war der Schwimm-Olympiasieger Michael Phelps. Tina Fey parodierte die republikanische Vizepräsidentschaftskandidatin Sarah Palin, Amy Poehler spielte Hillary Clinton und Rapper Lil Wayne war der musikalische Gast. Die Show erzielte die höchsten Einschaltquoten seit September 2001 und ist die zweitmeistgesehene SNL-Folge aller Zeiten. Der Premierentermin am 13. September lag früher als bei vorherigen Staffeln, die üblicherweise am letzten Septemberwochenende oder Anfang Oktober begannen. Einen Monat später erreichte die Show die höchsten Einschaltquoten seit über 14 Jahren, als Sarah Palin selbst auftrat. SNL hatte in der ersten halben Stunde 17 Millionen Zuschauer.
Vor Beginn der Staffel blieb das Ensemble weitgehend unverändert, mit Ausnahme des Neuzugangs Bobby Moynihan. Moynihan kam als Schauspieler des Upright Citizens Brigade Theater zu SNL. In Staffel 33 gehörten Moynihan und Wilson zu den Upright Citizens Brigade-Darstellern, die SNL während der Staffel für ein Vorsprechen eingeladen hatte, um nach dem Streik der Autoren Anfang 2008 ein neues Ensemblemitglied zu finden. Moynihan schaffte es bei seinem Vorsprechen in Staffel 33 nicht, wurde aber kurz vor Beginn dieser Staffel zu einem weiteren Vorsprechen eingeladen. Wilson blieb weiterhin als festes Ensemblemitglied dabei.

Insgesamt wurden 22 Folgen während der achtmonatigen Staffel ausgestrahlt, darunter eine zweiwöchige Pause im Februar aufgrund der Olympischen Winterspiele 2010. Begleitend zur Staffel gab es drei Primetime-Folgen von "Saturday Night Live Weekend Update Thursday" und drei Primetime-SNL-Clip-Shows.
Vor Beginn der Staffel gab es einige Umbesetzungen. Darrell Hammond, das letzte verbliebene Castmitglied aus den 1990ern, verließ die Show nach rekordverdächtigen 14 Staffeln. Die Nebendarstellerinnen Michaela Watkins und Casey Wilson wurden noch vor Staffelbeginn entlassen.
Um diese Lücken zu füllen, wurden Nasim Pedrad und Jenny Slate als neue Nebendarstellerinnen engagiert. Abby Elliott und Bobby Moynihan blieben weiterhin Teil des Ensembles.
Ein besonderes Highlight der Staffel war eine Internetkampagne, die die Schauspielerin Betty White als Moderatorin für eine Folge gewinnen sollte. Die Kampagne startete Anfang 2010 auf Facebook unter dem Namen "Betty White to Host SNL!". Die Kampagne war erfolgreich und White wurde zur ältesten Moderatorin in der Geschichte von SNL. Für Whites Folge holte Lorne Michaels die ehemaligen Darstellerinnen Rachel Dratch, Tina Fey, Ana Gasteyer, Amy Poehler, Maya Rudolph und Molly Shannon zurück. Die Folge erzielte die höchsten Einschaltquoten seit über einem Jahr mit 5,8 Punkten in der Zielgruppe der 18- bis 49-Jährigen und insgesamt 12,1 Millionen Zuschauern.
