‘Saturday Night Live’ To Air Second ‘At Home’ Broadcast

A video released on Twitter that simply said “We’re back this Saturday #SNLAtHome” featured all the cast members trying to navigate through technical difficulties on their computer. The first Saturday Night Live at Home aired on April 11 with new material produced remotely by SNL cast, crew as well as a special guest appearance by Tom Hanks and a performance by Chris Martin.
