SNL ’s first-ever episode featuring a content creator as host paid off in a big way in the ratings department: Last week’s episode hosted by Druski drew 5.6 million viewers, the show’s biggest audience in two years.
The episode fared even better among the 18-34 demographic, where it earned its highest ratings in more than four years. It was also the most-watched SNL episode ever on Peacock.
While Druski was no doubt a major draw, The Strokes ’ appeal shouldn’t be discounted either, especially among Gen Z viewers, as the band has attracted a significant new wave of younger fans in recent years.
Among other highlights, the episode saw Druski spoof You Can See Everything , Senator-elect James Talarico crash the cold open , Jeremy Culhane debut a humiliating Elon Musk impersonation , and The Strokes join the Five-Timers Club with some help from Walton Goggins.
