The NBC variety series, which was scheduled to return from hiatus on March 28, will not resume production until further notice, the network said on Monday. It's unclear if the show will return since there were only six episodes left this season, the show's 45th on air. An NBC spokesperson confirmed that the show will monitor the situation closely and make decisions on a week-to-week basis.
Actor John Krasinski was set to host the March 28th episode, and musical guest Dua Lipa was set to perform.America loses 'comfort food' as daytime talk shows and late-night comics suspend production over coronavirusRead More"SNL" joins a slew of late night and daytime shows that have suspended their broadcasts in the past week because of the coronavirus outbreak.

But I understand. We will miss you guys. Stay safe & healthy!
That sux.
Maybe they can study comedy while they are off!
Good.
But whats the bad news?
Thats some good news
They still make that show?
Wait it’s still on TV?
You should stay on permanent hiatus.
'Because of the coronavirus' and chronic inability to be funny
I don't see the problem with that.
Gosh, what will we do? Oh no 😐 Say it ain't so WhoCares
Silver lining
Best “news” I’ve heard all day!

Nothing of value was lost

So it's not all bad news.
Just stay cancelled.
Theoryof_rights Finally some positive news!
If I want to watch a comedy skit that does nothing but badmouth President Trump and report fake news, I'll just tune into CNN and MSNBC on any given day. Problem solved!
A reason to dance! Fewer pointless and unfunny skits!
Wait...SNL is still around.? Who knew?
Yay.
Oh Dear, wherever can I go for my Trump bashing!!

Saturday night Live? WHAT IS THAT?
I hope they air the good SNL line up.
Well there is a Bright side
Oh no, the Democrats are loosing all their free advertisers
I want to know for every Chinavirus reported and death occurrence we should also get the number of regular flu reported and death so we can at least have some context?
Now if only CNN would follow suit.
Does anyone even watch anymore?
I thought it'd be because they haven't been funny in over 15 years
Good
No need to come back at all.
Silver lining
IntelCrab
Keep it on hiatus even afterwards
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 funniest thing I’ve seen from SNL in at least a decade
Wow...this is the first corona virus related news I couldn’t care less about.
Blue checks on suicide watch. Everyone else unaffected.
Who?
aww gee that's too bad
Didn’t know it was still on
It’s still on?
That’s still on?
They could do us all a favor and just cancel it completely. We'd be okay with that.
Great news!!!
Omg I'm so going to miss the bi-partisan humor. Said no one ever.
Finally a good news
The only good Chinese Wuhan Virus news I've seen all day.
IntelCrab
SNL will be replaced by Trump daily briefings on Coronavirus

Who cares.
Excellent!

Show reruns from the 70's through early 2000's when it actually was funny and had more substance
Wow! CNN actually reported good news for a change!
Thank god
Now I am really bummed out; no SNL, where do I turn to for comic relief in these stressful and uncertain times? Oh, I got it, 'The View' without Joy Behar.
They’re still on?
How cool would it be if the cast & crew just barricaded themselves at 30 Rock and kept cranking out SNL?
No need to return... we're good.
Studio420Ben
