is snl new tonight?
Yes, there is a new SNL today, February 20.
The scheduled start time is 11:30 p.m. ET / 8:30 p.m. PT.
It airs on NBC, which is on Sling.
It’s finally time watch SNL online, but a lot of people may not be here for the host, actor Regé-Jean Page. And that is no offense to Simon Basset, Duke of Hastings of Bridgerton, but his musical guest is one of the biggest music acts in the country — and there is nothing like an important musical guest on SNL.
Tonight, mega-huge recording artist Bad Bunny makes his SNL debut. And there’s also a chance he could get physical. Yes, this musical guest is also a sports entertainer, as Bad Bunny is WWE’s current 24/7 champion.
Will Weekend Update’s Colin Jost and Michael Che (both WrestleMania competitors in their own right) try and take Bad Bunny’s gold? Will Bad Bunny bring 2x WWE Hall of Famer Booker T for a performance of the song “Booker T?” Lots of questions.
As was the case last week, this SNL episode is scheduled to be performed in front of the show’s traditional live studio audience at Studio 8H at Rockefeller Center.
Previous episodes were performed remotely due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, and the production is continuing to follow to safety regulations, including a reduced capacity and face mask wearing.

How to watch SNL online anywhere, with a VPN
Just because NBC isn’t available everywhere doesn’t mean you can’t watch Saturday Night Live if your current location doesn’t offer it. Watching SNL using the service you already pay for, along with the rest of the internet, can be pretty easy with the right VPN (virtual private network), which lets stream the show from wherever you go.
The best VPN service is ExpressVPN. It meets the VPN needs of the vast majority of users, offering outstanding compatibility with most devices and impressive connection speeds. Plus, if you’re ready to commit now, signing up for longer periods of six months or a year reduces the cost even more.
Our favorite VPN service, ExpressVPN, really shines thanks to its safety, speed and simplicity-to-use. It’s also compatible with loads of devices – from iOS and Android to Roku, Apple TV and PlayStations. You’ll even get an extra 3 months free if you sign up for a year, or there’s a 30-day money-back guarantee if you just want to give it a try.
