Who should host Saturday Night Live this season?

Ahead of Saturday Night Live season 48, which kicks off on October 1, eight cast members left the show: Pete Davidson, Aidy Bryant, Kyle Mooney, Chris Redd, Aristotle Athari, Kate McKinnon, Alex Moffat, and Melissa Villaseñor. So in what figures to be a season of change at the long-running sketch show, here’s hoping that extends to the hosts, another aspect of SNL that could some fresh blood. Miles Teller, Brendan Gleeson, and Megan Thee Stallion (pulling double duty as the week’s musical guest) are set to host the first three episodes this season, and they’re all solid choices who’ve never hosted the show before. But there are plenty of other celebrities who’d be perfect for the gig—for instance Dave Bautista proved his comedic chops in Guardians Of The Galaxy, Quinta Brunson just won an Emmy for comedy writing for Abbott Elementary and she has a sketch comedy background to boot, and Jennifer Coolidge has just never hosted, which is practically a crime. Here, then, are 10 more hosts we’d love to see fronting at SNL during season 48.

Tom Cruise

is the biggest movie of the year, so why the hell is Miles Teller our first SNL host this year? For one thing, as hard as it is to believe, Tom Cruise has never hosted the show. Not once. We know he can do comedy (he can will himself to do anything). His 2000 MTV Movie Awards sketch, opposite Ben Stiller and John Woo, proved he can do a filmed sketch. It’s time for Tom Cruise to take a break from trying to kill himself for our entertainment and host SNL. Unless he’s chicken. Maybe the one stunt he’s afraid to pull off is live comedy. Prove us wrong, Tom Cruise. Prove us wrong. [Matt Schimkowitz]
