Episode Notes

Andy Samberg does not appear in this episode and this is the first episode of the season not to have an SNL Digital Short.

This is the first episode to have a sole sponsor (Bud Light Golden Wheat Beer) buy the national ad time. Along with airing commercials for Bud Light Golden Wheat Beer, there were also dress rehearsal outtakes from past SNL episodes (this was not shown in the NBC rerun).
