The popular live sketch comedy series "Saturday Night Live" is set to return to your TV screens on Sept 30 for their 43rd season. They're bringing with it a trio of heavy hitters for the inaugural episodes this year: Jay Z, Sam Smith and Pink.
Jay Z, who was previously announced as the season's debut musical guest on Sept. 30, released his platinum album 4:44 this summer. He'll be joined by host Ryan Gosling. Smith, who is set to release his second album sometime this fall, is on deck for Oct. 7. He joins host Gal Gadot (of Wonder Woman fame).
Pink is set to take the "SNL" stage on Oct. 14, the day after her latest studio album, Beautiful Trauma, is set to be released. She will be joining "Silicon Valley" star Kumail Nanjiani, who will serve as host.
