The new season of the comedy sketch show Saturday Night Live is set to kick off in October, and we now have the first three hosts and musical guests for the 51st season. Things kick off on October 4 with musician Bad Bunny serving as the host and Doja Cat joining as musical guest. On October 11, SNL alumna Amy Poehler will be joined by indie-pop band Role Model.

Things really heat up on October 18, as pop star Sabrina Carpenter -- whose recent album Man's Best Friend debuted at No. 1 on Billboard -- pulls double duty as host and musical guest.

This will be the second hosting gig for Bad Bunny, and second time solo hosting for Poehler, although she hosted alongside Tina Fey in 2015. Carpenter will make her hosting debut and second appearance as musical act. This is the first SNL appearance for both Doja Cat and Role Model.

Season 50 of Saturday Night Live was absolutely iconic as it featured some hilarious cold opens, funny moments on Weekend Update and so many guest stars. There was also the big SNL 50 celebration last season, which went on to win the Emmy Award for Outstanding Variety Special (Live).
