Episode 107 - Ariana Grande (Season 51)

We’re back with a sketch-by-sketch recap of Saturday Night Live (Season 51, Dec. 20, 2025) — a great holiday episode hosted by Ariana Grande with a huge, heartfelt goodbye to Bowen Yang in his final night at Studio 8H.

In this episode, we break down:

  • The holiday cold open and Ariana’s monologue
  • The strongest sketches of the night (including the biggest laughs and the few misses)
  • Weekend Update highlights + featured desk pieces (we see you, Kam Patterson)
  • Why this episode stands out as one of the best of Season 51
  • Bowen’s emotional send-off and what it means for the cast going forward

About the Podcast

The Ten to One Podcast
A Saturday Night Live Rewatch Podcast
Named after the time slot reserved for the oddball sketches of Saturday Night Live, this podcast from three die hard SNL fans dives into every new episode of the sketch series that is not only a staple of television but an institution of comedy.

Bradford Oman (aka Ethan Anderton at SlashFilm.com) and his friends Ben Konowitz and Nate Loucks will discuss every sketch from each new episode, rate the host, and pick their favorite player of the evening. Plus, there are bound to be stupid bits and dumb tangents.
