Saturday Night Live has set its first roster of hosts and musical guests for season 51.
Coming off its 50th anniversary season, the NBC sketch comedy show will premiere its 51st edition on Oct. 4. Bad Bunny will host the season premiere, marking his second time as host, and Doja Cat will make her first SNL appearance as musical guest.
Former castmember Amy Poehler is set to host on Oct. 11 — her third time hosting and second solo gig (she also hosted once with Tina Fey) — with musical guest Role Model. Sabrina Carpenter will take on both the host and musical guest roles on Oct. 18.

Returning castmembers are Michael Che, Mikey Day, Andrew Dismukes, Chloe Fineman, Marcello Hernandez, James Austin Johnson, Colin Jost, Ashley Padilla, Sarah Sherman, Kenan Thompson, Jane Wickline and Bowen Yang.
