Maya Rudolph Signs New SNL Contract
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Comedy, Late Night, NBC, Saturday Night Live
With only days to go until the season premiere, we can announce that regular Maya Rudolph has now been confirmed for Saturday Night Live’s newest season. Up until recently, Rudolph’s status with the long-running show was unclear. Her previous contract expired last May and she was reportedly weighing a future outside TV. My guess is Will Forte’s recent flick, The Brothers Solomon, encouraged her to stick around a little longer.
SNL’s 33rd season premiere is scheduled for Saturday, September 29th.

Hallelujah! A source reports to the newspaper that Shepherd, who has filled in many times as a guest host, will indeed be the one shifting to a permanent status.
Once the official announcement is made next Monday (September 10th), a collective sigh of relief will be heard around the country.
