Who is hosting Saturday Night Live tonight? (May 21)

Tonight’s episode of Saturday Night Live is a special one. Not because the host and musical guest are absolutely amazing. And also not because season 47 episode 21 is the season finale. It’s special because its the final episode for many cast favorites, including Pete Davidson. Here’s everything to know ahead of tonight’s season finale.

A day before the season 47 finale of Saturday Night Live, sources reported that episode 21 would be Pete Davidson’s final episode as a cast member. Soon after, announcements of other cast members also leaving after tonight, began to surface. I don’t know about you, but I’m sad about it! It feels like the end of an era!

Who is hosting Saturday Night Live tonight, May 21?

After tonight, the NBC hit sketch comedy series will never be the same. Now, this isn’t to say I won’t be watching, I definitely will! In fact, I’m very curious about who will join next since so many favorites are leaving. But first, let’s find out who is hosting such a big episode.

Hosting tonight, is Netflix star Natasha Lyonne, who most recently starred in Russian Doll. The musical guest is set to be Japanese Breakfast. Which songs do you hope the band will play?

Who is leaving Saturday Night Live after the season 47 finale?

Pete Davidson is the first cast member we learned would be leaving. It’s understandable. The actor has been in several projects lately and committing to standup gigs. However, shortly after the news about Davidson leaving, we were surprised to learn that Aidy Bryant and Kate McKinnon will also give their final performances as cast members in tonight’s episode. We wish them the best! Also leaving after tonight, is Kyle Mooney.

Who will you miss the most? Again, we wish everyone success and we are going to be following their upcoming projects.
