00:00Saturday Night Live is returning to the iconic studio 8H to start season 46 on NBC.

00:17Now everyone assumes that because I play James Bond, I'm this very suave, sophisticated guy, and well, I have to admit, I kind of am.

00:33Okay, well, our quarantine hasn't really been a vacation.

00:42The NBC sketch comedy series has set October 3rd for its season premiere, once again airing live across the country at 1130 p.m. Eastern, 830 p.m. Pacific.
00:51The show's return to in-studio production follows that of a number of other late-night programs, like NBC's The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon and Late Night with Seth Meyers.
01:00SNL has a much larger cast than those shows and more moving parts with multiple sketches and musical performances.
01:06NBC isn't yet sharing details on how the show will accommodate COVID-19 safety precautions.
