List of episodes

The forty-ninth season of the NBC sketch comedy series Saturday Night Live premiered on October 14, 2023, during the 2023–24 television season, with host Pete Davidson and musical guest Ice Spice.[1] The premiere was delayed due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.[2]

Cast

After the departures of nine cast members within the past year, the entire cast from the previous season returned,[1] with James Austin Johnson and Sarah Sherman, who both joined as featured players prior to season 47, being promoted to repertory status, while Marcello Hernandez, Molly Kearney, Michael Longfellow and Devon Walker, all of whom joined the previous season, remained as featured players.[3] On October 4, 2023, New York City-based comedian Chloe Troast was announced as a new cast member.[4]

While not credited as cast members, the comedy group and SNL staff writers Please Don't Destroy (Martin Herlihy, Ben Marshall, and John Higgins) continue to appear in digital videos. In some episodes, starting with this season's premiere, they received the credit "A Film by Please Don't Destroy" in the opening montage, marking the first time since Robert Smigel's "TV Funhouse" cartoons that a recurring segment has its own credit in the opening.
