Michaels told CBS Morning‘s Gayle King, “I think I’m committed to doing the show until its 50th anniversary, which is in three years… I’d like to see that through and I have a feeling that would be a really good time to leave.”The 50th season of “Saturday Night Live” is coming in the fall of 2024, and during that year the all-powerful Michaels will turn 80 years old.
