Find the episode on NBC
On DIRECTV, open the guide for your account and find your local NBC station. The channel number varies by market. Confirm the November 14 SNL listing rather than using a nationwide channel number.
Local-station availability depends on your address, DIRECTV service and package. A ZIP lookup is a starting point; confirm the complete address and final lineup before changing service. Our NBC channel guide explains how to locate the station.
Watching live on Peacock
NBCUniversal confirms a live Peacock stream alongside the NBC broadcast. Check the current Peacock plan and episode listing before subscribing, and test playback on the compatible device you intend to use. A DIRECTV subscription by itself should not be treated as proof of Peacock access.
Streaming requires an internet connection and remains subject to the service's location and device conditions. This guide does not quote a Peacock price or promise a trial. Check the service's own current terms before purchasing.
Plan your viewing before the show
The late start matters when setting a reminder or recording. Viewers on the West Coast should look for the 8:30 p.m. Pacific live listing; viewers elsewhere should check their local guide's time zone. Confirm the correct episode title and date before saving a recording.
If you plan to watch away from home, check access on that screen in advance. Home television access does not automatically establish availability in every app or travel location. Keep your account credentials and supported-device requirements in mind.
What is confirmed about the lineup?
NBC Chicago's October 22 announcement identifies Mulaney as the November 14 host and Bridgers as the musical guest. This guide focuses on that announced pairing and viewing information. Recheck the broadcaster's current listing as the date approaches in case the schedule changes.
