Saturday Night Live season 34

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The thirty-fourth season of the variety series Saturday Night Live will air beginning in 2008 and ending in 2009 on NBC. The season is expected to consist of 22 episodes, in attempt to compensate for episodes lost during the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike.[1] This would make it the longest season since the show's second season. In addition to the regular episodes, three thirty-minute episodes are scheduled to air Thursdays in October in the weeks leading up to the 2008 United States presidential election.[2]
