  "account": "\"Saturday Night Live\" is set to bring back comedian John Mulaney for his seventh time hosting the variety sketch series in November. The comedian will take the stage on November 14, joining a trio of other performers for the show. Mulaney will be performing alongside musical guest Phoebe Bridgers. The evening kicks off with host Inde Navarrette on October 31 and digital creator Druski on November 7. Mulaney's return as host comes on the heels of his co-starring role in the Prime Video film \"Madden,\" which premieres in select theaters and on streaming on November 18. He is also currently on the road with his nationwide \"Mister Whatever\" standup tour. Druski's hosting duties were recently revealed, with The Strokes joining as musical guest for his show, marking the fifth time he has hosted \"SNL.\" The comedian plans to promote his new Netflix series \"Collect and Praise,\" which premieres in December. Navarrette will also be hosting \"SNL\" live from Halloween night, with musical guest Gracie Abrams. Season 52 of \"Saturday Night Live\" began with a live show hosted by New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson, with musical guest Katseye. Earlier shows in the season featured Dakota Johnson and Turnstile, followed by Shane Gillis and Rosalía. Gillis' standup episode on October 10 garnered significant attention and criticism, as he made an inappropriate joke about women dressing inappropriately to go to the gym and dropped an F-bomb during a Dr. Seuss sketch. Gillis apologized twice during the broadcast and was seen exiting the stage early during the end credits. \"Saturday Night Live\" airs weekly at 11:10 p.m. ET/8:30 p.m. PT on NBC and Peacock, with past seasons available to stream on the streaming platform. The show is produced in association with Broadway Video, and Lorne Michaels serves as the creator and executive producer.",
