SNL U.K. Returns: How to Stream Season 2 Premiere with Jeff Goldblum and CMAT
Saturday Night Live U.K. kicks off its second season with Jeff Goldblum as host and CMAT as musical guest. The show airs live on Sky UK on Saturday at 10 p.m. BST and becomes available on Peacock in the U.S. on Sunday at 9 p.m. ET. Viewers can also access it through a Walmart+ trial that includes Peacock.
The season two opener pairs Jeff Goldblum, known for his recent turn as the Wizard in both Wicked films, with Irish artist CMAT, whose third album Euro-Country arrived in August 2025. She is currently touring across the Americas through the rest of 2026. The episode airs live on Sky UK before landing on Peacock the following evening for U.S. audiences.
For viewers seeking access, a $1 Walmart+ trial includes Peacock as a member perk, while direct Peacock subscriptions start at $12.99 monthly. U.S. fans wanting the live broadcast can pair a Sky Stream subscription with ExpressVPN, which offers a 30-day money-back guarantee for new users.
This transatlantic adaptation of a beloved American comedy institution could expand the sketch format's global reach, potentially introducing U.K. humor to U.S. audiences and vice versa. The show may also boost Peacock subscriptions, particularly through the affordable Walmart+ workaround, and could elevate CMAT's profile stateside. However, its cultural impact may remain niche, appealing primarily to existing SNL fans rather than drawing in casual viewers unfamiliar with British comedic sensibilities.
