Many seasons ago, I used to predict the hosts and musical guests for the upcoming batch of new Saturday Night Live episodes. Looking through the archives, it doesn’t look like I ever did it on this blog, but instead on just a (now-defunct) SNL fan forum. So yeah, it’s been a while, but I kinda felt compelled to peek into my Studio 8H-themed crystal ball once more.
So the way it goes with my SNL guest predictions is that I look over the pop culture calendar for the next several upcoming months and attempt to discern who might conceivably have something they’d like to promote at 30 Rockefeller. But I don’t care all that much about accuracy, so this set of predictions will essentially be doubling as a wish list. Which is to say, some of the folks I’ve chosen might not actually be all that likely to appear on Saturday Night Live during Season 50. Or ever, for that matter. But maybe typing them out loud will manifest something special into existence.
Also, before I get to my predictions, I’ve got a quick programming note about my first wacky review of the season. The premiere is scheduled to air on September 28, and I might be going away that weekend, so my review might be posted a little later than usual. But I promise that it will still be as wacky as ever!
Now on with the predictions! (Feel free to share some of your own in the comments section if you’ve got any.)
