The Nov. 7 episode of “Saturday Night Live,” hosted by Druski with the Strokes as musical guest, brought in a strong 5.6 million viewers.

Not only does that total outpace the 5.2 million viewers achieved by Inde Navarrette and Gracie Abrams’ Halloween episode, which was previously the Season 52 record, but it marks the most viewers “SNL” has seen in two years.

The most recent episode to outrank Druski’s was during the landmark 50th season, when John Mulaney and Chappell Roan boosted the show to 6.6 million viewers on Nov. 2, 2024. Druski’s episode also scored the highest rating among the adults age 18-49 demographic since Mulaney’s in 2024. And among viewers age 18-34 in particular, last week’s show achieved the best rating in more than four years, since Elon Musk hosted on May 8, 2021, with Miley Cyrus as musical guest. On Peacock, Druski hosted the most-watched episode ever, and on social media, it garnered 424 million video views, the highest since Ariana Grande hosted with Cher as musical guest ahead of Christmas 2025.
