Saturday Night Live had a thrilling performance by Bad Bunny last weekend, and now the show is getting even spookier with comedian Nate Bargatze hosting the Halloween episode of the season. In the latest SNL promo, Bargatze abandons his nice guy persona just in time for the scariest day of the year. The one-minute clip showcases Bargatze's wrath as he realizes he's been too nice, smashing guitars and vandalizing the set to the amusement of the cast. However, it's all an act as the mild-mannered comedian seeks the approval of his peers. This promo perfectly showcases Bargatze's unique style. SNL is always entertaining, but having such a talented comedian like Bargatze as the host makes it even more exciting. With his Grammy-nominated background and multiple streaming stand-up specials like The Greatest Average American and Hello World, SNL fans can expect a hilarious episode.
Foo Fighters Will Be The Musical Guest for 'SNL's Halloween Episode
This episode is also unique as it embraces the Halloween theme. It will be fascinating to witness what SNL has in store for us this season, considering their previous Halloween sketches like David S. Pumpkins and The Vincent Price Holiday Specials were among the most outstanding in the series. We hope both SNL and Bargatze are able to handle the hilariously eerie expectations without faltering.Image via Open Road
Adding to the eerie festivities this week are the Foo Fighters, who will be gracing the stage with their musical talents. This marks the ninth appearance of the legendary band on the show, so it's safe to anticipate that there will be at least one sketch dedicated to them. Bargatze and the Foo Fighters will be closing out the first three weeks of shows for SNL's 49th season, which has already featured the return of Pete Davidson and the hosting debut of Bad Bunny.
SNL's latest episode for Halloween, which is hosted by Bargatze, will debut on NBC and Peacock on Saturday, October 28 at 11:30 PM ET. Additionally, you can also check out Bargatze's new promo below and catch up on Season 49 on Peacock right now.
