‘SNL’ Preview: Melissa McCarthy Is More Fun Than Taxes
NBC may have been busy today with some other big late-night news, but that will all fall by the wayside when 'Identity Thief' and 'Bridesmaids' star Melissa McCarthy returns to the 'SNL' stage for a second time, accompanied by musical guest Phoenix. McCarthy's performance earned praise the first time around despite some lackluster writing, so will lightning strike twice? Find out with the first promos for Melissa McCarthy's 'SNL' turn on April 6!

‘Slipknot for Saturday Night Live’ Petition Gains Support From Corey Taylor + Shawn Crahan
In 2011, a Facebook page was launched petitioning 'Saturday Night Live' to bring in Slipknot as a musical guest. It's hard to believe that the metal phenoms have never graced the 'SNL' stage, as they've brought the hate to 'The Tonight Show With Jay Leno' in the past, along with multiple appearances on 'Conan' and 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!'

‘Tonight Show’ Future: Seth Meyers To Take Over ‘Late Night’ For Jimmy Fallon?
Far-flung a future as it might seem to imagine Jimmy Fallon at the helm of 'The Tonight Show' in New York by the year 2014, it's even stranger to consider the next generation of late-night wars being set up. If indeed Jimmy Fallon leaves behind NBC's 'Late Night' for 'The Tonight Show' at any point in the future, who might replace him in the subsequent slot? Is 'SNL' veteran and current head writer Seth Meyers on the short list?

‘SNL’ Preview: Kevin Hart Goes for the Oscar
Not that 'SNL' deserves all the credit per say, but it's certainly true what longtime series star Jason Sudeikis says in the latest promo for Saturday's Kevin Hart-hosted installment, that recent 'SNL' hosts Anne Hathaway, Christoph Waltz and Jennifer Lawrence all went on to win Oscars this past Sunday. Some would say that Hart was robbed of a nomination for his performance in 'Scary Movie 4,' but we're just happy to have an actual comedian back on the 'SNL' stage. Preview the latest episode with Macklemore and Ryan Lewis inside!

SNL Offers the Pope a Retirement Plan
Saturday Night Live doesn't often tackle religion, but when it rains, it pours! You may have already seen the instantly viral 'Djesus Uncrossed,' but have you seen the fake advertisement for a service that assists Popes with their retirement plans? It manages to combine relevant comedy with a spot-on commercial parody, effectively killing two SNL birds with one stone. Check it out below.

SNL Presents Christoph Waltz in ‘Djesus Uncrossed’
With 'Inglourious Basterds' and 'Django Unchained' star Christoph Waltz hosting, it was inevitable that last night's Saturday Night Live would contain some kind of Quentin Tarantino parody...and oh boy, did they deliver in the most offensively hilarious way possible. There's no reason for Tarantino to make a third historical revenge film now -- SNL has done it for him with 'Djesus Uncrossed.'

SNL: Justin Bieber on the Miley Cyrus Show
If there's one thing that we learned from last night's Saturday Night Live, it's that Justin Bieber can't act. Like, at all. However, he can self-deprecate with the best of them, which is sometimes all you need to squeak by with hosting duties. Yesterday's episode also saw the return of The Miley Cyrus Show and Bieber got the play the head of her fan club...who really hates Justin Bieber. Watch it below!

Justin Bieber Jokes About His Weed Bust on ‘SNL’
During Vanessa Bayer's hysterical impression of the pop-star-turned-strange-human Miley Cyrus on last night's 'Saturday Night Live,' Justin Bieber and the 'SNL' writers apparently saw the perfect opportunity to joke about his recent marijuana bust.

SNL: Justin Bieber’s Valentine’s Day Message
Considering his reputation as a teenage heartthrob, it would have been foolish of Saturday Night Live to not upend guest host Justin Bieber's romantic image. The resulting sketch was one of the most bizarre moments from last night's episode, painting Bieber as the last person any self respecting young woman should spend alone time with. Check out the scene for yourself below!

SNL: ‘The Sopranos’ Go Back to High School
There are few shows that beg for your eye rolls more than The CW's 'The Carrie Diaries,' a non-canonical prequel to 'Sex and the City' that follows a young Carrie Bradshaw as a student in the '80s. Naturally, the best way for SNL to take that show on is to view it through the lens of another classic HBO show. And that brings us to the sketch embedded below, titled 'Sopranos High.'

SNL Takes on ‘The Hunger Games’
With Jennifer Lawrence hosting, it was finally time for SNL to go after one of the biggest cultural phenomenons in the world: 'The Hunger Games.' The sketch finds Lawrence back in the shoes of Katniss Everdeen, fresh off her joint victory with Peeta and ready to take on the only thing more horrifying than the games themselves: the press conference that follows them.
