After a major cast turnover last season, Nwodim is now one of the veteran cast members on the show — and one of its most utilized on-screen.  Nwodim found herself elevated to senior status as long-running “SNL” stars such as Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant, Pete Davidson, Kyle Mooney, Chris Redd and Melissa Villaseñor opted to exit.

Is it going to feel the way it felt before? Is it going to feel better… or feel worse?’”

At the top of the sketch, Teller as Peyton addressed the shakeups that the series has gone through other the summer, which saw eight cast members — Chris Redd, Alex Moffat, Aristotle Athari, Melissa Villasenor, Pete Davidson, Kate McKinnon, Aidy Bryant and Kyle Mooney — announce their departures from the long-running sketch comedy series. “There are a lot of changes at the show, which could be exciting,” Teller said. “Let’s see what they came up with.”

has undergone a lot of retooling over the summer — with a lot of castmembers exiting the show and four new actors signing on. So they made sure to address the slew of differences with a self-referential cold-open featuring the night's host,Miles Teller.Teller played Payton Manning, joined by his brother Eli Manning (Andrew Dismukes), as they live-commented on the cold-open sketch, and brutally criticized the sketch.The bit got even more meta when Jon Hamm joined Payton and Eli as a special guest commentator and all three of them got in on the fun of making fun of the cast's gaffes in the sketch-within-a-sketch.At one point, Shawn White showed up for a one-line cameo and Hamm joked, «Well, you know, sometimes they need to bring in a real celebrity when the host isn't that famous… I mean, they couldn't get the star of the big summer movie, like, Tom Cruise or John Hamm, they had to get the costar.»Payton (again, played by Teller, the night's host) indignantly replied, «Well, I heard they rarely put the hosts in cold open, so when they do, it is special.»«Special? Or is it desperate?» Hamm shot back.By using the sketch-within-a-sketch conceit, the show managed to not only poke fun at themselves, they got a chance to introduce all the new castmembers while also ingratiating themselves to new audiences with a bit of self-deprecation.Now only time will tell how the new, remarkably smaller cast will gel over the course of the season.

It’s been a hectic off-season for Saturday Night Live, with longtime cast members leaving and new faces coming on board. Tonight, the show begins its 48th season, hosted by Top Gun star Miles Teller, with Kendrick Lamar as the musical guest.
