PAGE. _Saturday Night Live_ made the programing change last-minute, announcing on Friday afternoon that the scheduled rerun episode on Saturday would be replaced by a “Goodnight Sweet
Prince” tribute episode to the legendary musician who died Thursday at age 57. The remembrance scored big ratings, stronger than any _SNL_ encore and many of the show’s original episodes
this season_. “_Goodnight Sweet Prince_,” _featuring Prince performances and skits through the years, drew a 4.5 rating in the metered-markets households and a 2.1 rating in adults 18-49 in
the markets with Local People Meters. That was way up from last week’s original (3.9 in HH, 1.9 in 18-49) and the program’s highest metered-market household rating since February 6 (5.1 with
host Larry David and musical guest The 1975) and highest 18-49 rating in the local people meters since February 13 (2.3 with host Melissa McCarthy and musical guest Kanye West). WATCH ON
