Exciting News: Nate Bargatze to Host ‘SNL’ with Amazing Musical Guest, the Foo Fighters!

Get ready because “Saturday Night Live” is back in action. The highly anticipated Season 49 kicked off with Pete Davidson and musical guests Ice Spice and Bad Bunny. Now, “SNL” has announced the lineup for the next episode on Oct. 28: Nate Bargatze will be making his hosting debut, joined by Foo Fighters as the musical guest.

Bargatze, known for his hilarious stand-up routines, is currently touring the U.S. with his show, “Be Funny.” If you want a taste of his comedy, you can check out his comedy special “Hello, World” on Amazon Prime Video. He also has two other specials, “The Greatest Average American” and “The Tennessee Kid,” available for streaming on Netflix. Bargatze has been gaining recognition since his debut albums “Yelled at by a Clown” and “Full Time Magic” and his appearance in Netflix’s comedy collection “The Standups” in 2017.

Not only will Bargatze be making his debut, but Foo Fighters will be returning to “SNL” for the ninth time as the musical guest. This renowned rock band, composed of Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Chris Shiflett, Pat Smear, Rami Jaffee, and Josh Freese, is currently on tour and promoting their latest album, “But Here We Are.” Fans of Foo Fighters can enjoy their previous albums, such as “The Colour and Shape,” “There Is Nothing Left to Lose,” and “Wasting Light.”

The Season 45 premiere of “SNL” was a hit, featuring Pete Davidson, Ice Spice, Taylor Swift, and Travis Kelce. The unexpected appearance of Kelce and Swift, who are in a romantic relationship, brought a new audience to NFL games. According to sources, the couple contacted the show just minutes before air time and ended up participating in a sketch written about them.

The premiere episode drew in 4.8 million viewers, a 19% increase from the previous season’s premiere. It also scored a 0.96 rating among adults aged 18-49, the highest rating for “SNL” since 2020. On Peacock, the episode became the most-watched season premiere ever, more than doubling last year’s performance. It also ranked as the third most-watched episode, following Dave Chappelle’s episode in November 2022 and Pedro Pascal’s episode in February of this year.
