Salon"Saturday Night Live" is returning with a bang for its 50th season on air. The variety sketch show has announced its hosts and musical guests for the first five episodes of the new season, which will premiere on Sept. 28 led by newly minted Emmy winner "Hacks" star, Jean Smart, alongside musician Jelly Roll, who will both be making their debuts on the show. Other big names stopping by the 30 Rock building for a Saturday evening will be pop star and "Wicked" lead Ariana Grande, doubling with the legendary Stevie Nicks as the guest musical performance. After a one-week break, six-time host John Mulaney will host on Nov. 2 with musical guest Chappell Roan.
