"Saturday Night Live is to air two primetime election specials, NBC has announced. The half-hour specials will be broadcast on consecutive Thursdays - September 20 and September 27 - at 8pm ET on the Peacock Network. These Saturday Night Live election shows will air alongside Up All Night, The Office and Parks and Recreation in NBC&amp;#039;s Thursday comedy block. SNL&amp;#039;s limited-run series continues an election year trend first established in 2008 and later continued in the fall of 2009. An announcement on the cast for Saturday Night Live&amp;#039;s 38th season is expected to come before the September premiere. Kristen Wiig and Andy Samberg have both exited SNL and Jason Sudeikis&amp;#039;s future on the show also in doubt.
