Thanks to the coronavirus, myriad late-night television shows have switched to a webcam model from home. Joining the ranks of Stephen Colbert and Jimmys Fallon and Kimmel will be Saturday Night Live, which is set to return this week.

NBC previously postponed its upcoming episodes in late March, but the network has decided to switch to a remote-working model for the show's next broadcast on April 11.

Details are not entirely clear, but Variety confirmed that the show will likely include the "Weekend Update" segment, as well as remote contributions from cast members.

We'll find out what happens when SNL returns on April 11.
