No official uploadThis sketch has no video on the official SNL YouTube channel. Full episodes stream on Peacock.
The previous season's opening montage returns and it is still the same as in the previous season, except there's a logo which its "SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE 45" or "SNL 45" title card to celebrate SNL's 45th anniversary. But additionally, with the cast card for longtime cast member Leslie Jones is gone from the intro, (since she left the show prior to this season), Heidi Gardner and Chris Redd are both upgraded to repertory players and the first credits for new cast members Chloe Fineman and Bowen Yang, which they were both added in the opening montage. Also, in the opening montage, the shot of the couple making out is replaced by a shot of a traffic light that flashes purple (stop), then blue (go) and the background for the host/musical guest clips were now completely white, and there are two versions of the musical guest and host, shown side by side.
