## Summary

Saturday Night Live drew about 5.6 million same-day viewers on 7 November, its largest audience in two years, with comedian Druski making his hosting debut and the Strokes as musical guest. A college football broadcast immediately beforehand may have helped bring viewers to the programme.

The audience was up by about 440,000 on the previous season high, set a week earlier. The episode also reached two-year highs among adults aged 18 to 49, with around 1.5 million viewers, and its strongest 18-to-34 rating in more than five years; NBC said it was the most-watched episode ever on Peacock, without giving figures. The preceding Notre Dame-Miami game averaged 9.1 million viewers across NBC and Peacock, while other recent ratings included 7.77 million for 60 Minutes and 4.94 million for Cuptertino.
