History of Saturday Night Live (2005–10) "Saturday Night Live" is an American sketch comedy series created and produced by Lorne Michaels for most of the show's run. The show has aired on NBC since 1975. "Saturday Night Live" promised changes for the 2005–06 season, one of which was broadcasting in high-definition.
