It hasn’t been an easy return to Saturday Night Live for Pete Davidson…
For those who don’t recall, the 29-year-old comedian was supposed to host the late-night sketch comedy show on May 6 for the first time since he left in 2022. However, the episode was thrown out when the Writers Guild of America went on strike to fight for better working conditions and fair wages. With the strike ending late last month, though, Pete is set to come back to host on Saturday with Ice Spice as the musical guest.

So, to distract himself, Pete has been focused on the job, working on his monologue at comedy clubs in New York City. It’s unknown if he plans on mentioning what’s happening in Israel and Gaza in his opening monologue at this time. The insider said:
While producers were used to him not coming to set due to personal struggles throughout his time on SNL, he has been dedicated to showing up and putting in the work this week. The outlet reported that Pete has had a busy week at the 30 Rock studios, going to read-throughs, writing skits, and attending the traditional host dinner with executive producer Lorne Michaels and the cast.
Saturday Night Live is very stressful and filled with long hours. So hopefully he’s taking some time to focus on his mental health, especially if
