Earlier today NBC announced that Christina Applegate and Bruno Mars will host Saturday Night Live this year. Here are our top 10 people who need to host SNL this season.
Most of these people have never hosted SNL, but it has felt so long since we’ve seen the few that have hosted and we really want them to return!

We love Jennifer Lawrence almost as much as we love Hypable itself, and we need to see her host Saturday Night Live.
Max Greenfield plays our favorite character on New Girl, and we think he’d be a hilarious host.
We at Hypable don’t hold a political stance one way or the other, but we know SNL would love to have President Obama host, and we think he’d be really funny. Remember when he slow jammed the news with Jimmy Fallon?
Darren Criss is going to host Saturday Night Live eventually, you know it.
It’s been a few years since Neil Patrick Harris hosted SNL, and we really want him back.
Like it or not, Kristen Wiig is going to host Saturday Night Live either this year or next. And we love it.
We think Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally should host SNL as a duo. They’re married in real life and their on-screen chemistry shows it.
It’s been 26 years since Robert Downey Jr. hosted Saturday Night Live, and it’s time for him to return. He’s been huge these past few years, and with Iron Man 3 coming out this year it’s the perfect time to have him back.
Louis C.K. is hilarious, and we’d love to see him on SNL. The show occasionally likes to get a bit edgy, and he’s the man for the job. Plus his name is Louie, and this writer finds that awesome.
We love Ty Burrell on Modern Family and think he’d do a fantastic job as host.

This week Daniel Craig will host with musical guest Muse.
As we reported earlier today, Christina Applegate and Bruno Mars will host later in October.
We’ve also heard that Ryan Lochte is interested in appearing on SNL after last week’s parody by host Seth MacFarlane.
After it was long hinted that he would be stepping away from the show, it was finally announced that Jason Sudeikis will remain a Saturday Night Live cast member, but only until January. Playing both Mitt Romney and Joe Biden, it was vital that Sudeikis remain on the show during election season.
Sudeikis will follow season 37 cast members Kristen Wiig, Andy Samberg, and Abby Elliott out the door.
Kristen Wiig will star in Imogene alongside Darren Criss. Abby Elliott has joined How I Met Your Mother in a recurring role.
To make up for these departures, Saturday Night Live has cast three new cast members. Aidy Bryant, Tim Robinson, and Cecily Strong will be joining the show.
Saturday Night Live will host its second primetime election specials this season this Thursday, September 27.
