The 5.6 million viewers topped the previous week’s Oct. 31 telecast, which drew 5.2 million viewers and was the best of the season at that point.
The episode was also the top 18-49 demo in two years, going back to the Nov. 4, 2024 episode. In the 18-34 demo, it was the best in over four years, dating back to the May 8, 2021 episode with host Elon Musk and musical guest Miley Cyrus.
The Nov. 7 episode was the most watched SNL ever on Peacock, per NBCUniversal.
On social, the episode generated 424 million views as of Tuesday morning across YouTube, Facebook, X, Instagram and TikTok. It was the highest for SNL on social since the Ariana Grande-hosted episode last December.
