Is 'SNL' New Tonight? 4 Things To Watch On Feb. 11
"Saturday Night Live" fans are facing a short hiatus amid the upcoming Super Bowl and the end of awards season.
Although "SNL" viewers have two more weeks before new skits from the NBC comedy series returns, there are several programs that fans may be interested in watching on Feb. 11 instead.
"The Help" (10:30 p.m. ET, FX) In 1960s Mississippi, Skeeter (Emma Stone) dreams of becoming a writer and sees the opportunity to make her mark by interviewing the black women who work for the white families around Jackson. Skeeter's secret meetings with the workers lead to the release of a scandalous book that exposes the nasty truths about the small town's group of socialites.
While Stone has hosted "SNL" four times, her co-stars Octavia Spencer and Jessica Chastain have also had the honor of hosting the NBC variety show.
"Just Go With It" (11:30 p.m. ET, Bravo) After a devastating heartbreak, plastic surgeon Danny Maccabee (Adam Sandler) pretends to be married to enjoy a love life without commitment. However, when he meets the girl of his dream, she fears she has ruined his marriage. To assure her his fake marriage is over, Danny convinces his assistant Katherine (Jennifer Aniston) to act like his estranged wife, but it only creates more problems.
"SNL" alum Sandler stars in the film, which features past hosts Aniston and Nicole Kidman. Former "Saturday Night Live" star Rachel Dratch also makes a cameo as a patient.
"Get Hard" (10 p.m. ET, MTV) When hedge-fund manager James (Will Ferrell) is convicted of fraud and sentenced to prison, he hires Darnell (Kevin Hart), who has never broken the law, to teach him how to survive in lockup.
"Saturday Night Live" alum Ferrell stars in the comedy flick alongside Hart, a three-time "SNL" host, and past musical guest Tip 'T.I.' Harris.
"Vacation" (11:55 p.m. ET, Freeform) To relieve some of his childhood memories, Rusty Griswold (Ed Helms) surprises his family with a cross-country drive to a popular amusement park. However, the family's bonding trip is riddled with misadventures.

Meanwhile, "Saturday Night Live" alum Chevy Chase reprises his role as Clark Griswold in the fifth and final installment of the "Vacation" film series.
