Another weekend is here, and you know that means Saturday Night Live. The Nov. 15 episode promises plenty of laughs and wonderful performances again.

Of course, a lot of the time, you’ll want to dive into the guest host and the musical guest to make sure it’s going to be an episode for you. What I do find surprising about this show is that I may not know much about the host or necessarily like their work, but some of the skits can end up being the best on the series. It’s worth watching just to see if there’s a hidden gem in there.

What time is Saturday Night Live airing on Nov. 15, 2025?

The new episode will air at the usual time of 11:30 p.m. ET/8:30 p.m. PT tonight, Saturday, Nov. 15. This is a live event, which means the time is fixed.

To be able to watch live, you’ll need access to NBC, and you can do that via YouTube TV or Fubo TV if you’ve cut the cord. The good news is that episodes do head to Peacock the following day, so for those who just can’t stay up that late, there is a way to watch. It’s times like this that I wish I was on the West Coast to get the episode a little bit earlier in the day!

Who is the host on Saturday Night Live season 51 episode 6?

This episode features Glen Powell, who is busy promoting his new movie The Running Man. In fact, he was also on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon earlier this week, and we’re sure to see him continue the marketing rounds. He’s also recently been doing the rounds to promote his new Hulu series Chad Powers, which has aired its full first season.

While this is his hosting debut on the series, he has appeared on SNL before. It was just two seasons ago that Powell appeared during Sydney Sweeney’s hosting duties as the two promoted their movie Anybody But You.

Who is the musical guest on Saturday, Nov. 15?

Saturday Night Live season 51 episode 6 will also have a musical guest, with British artist Olivia Dean taking to the stage. Despite releasing music since 2018, Dean broke out in 2025 due to her soundtrack being included in Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy.

She’ll perform throughout the night, making her debut on the comedy series. Tickets for her 2026 tour in the United States are currently on sale.

Saturday Night Live airs Saturdays at 11:30/10:30c on NBC.
