"SNL UK" Season 2: A Glimpse into Britain's Laughter and Sky's Ambitions The second season of "Saturday Night Live UK" is set to return on September 12 with six brand new episodes.
To understand the show's success, it's worth examining what has made this British spinoff tick. On paper, "SNL UK" has been a modest but notable success, averaging around 220,000 viewers per episode on Sky.
These numbers are not spectacular by traditional TV standards, but they're respectable considering the show's unique blend of live sketch comedy and topical content.
