The holidays are in the rearview mirror and 2024 is officially underway. As a result, most people are ready to get back to business as usual. For many that means tuning in to NBC for a brand-new episode of Saturday Night Live. Unfortunately, that won’t happen tonight (January 6).

Season 49 of Saturday Night Live went on holiday hiatus after the episode that aired on December 16. That installment featured some serious Barbie star power. Former SNL cast member and Barbie actress Kate McKinnon made her hosting debut. It was also her first time back on the show since she left the cast a year ago. Additionally, Billie Eilish was the night’s musical guest. Her song “What Was I Made For?” appeared on the Barbie soundtrack.
