Created by Amuli and Bolia Matundu, “Pop the Balloon” has become notorious for its format, where single contestants are presented in front of a line of potential partners, each of whom holds a red balloon. If the participants are not interested in partnering with eligible singles, they immediately pop their balloon and later reveal why they are not interested in doing anything further.

Chappelle is hosting the first episode of the new year. This is the fourth time he is hosting this beloved sketch comedy show. GRAMMY-Award nominated rapper Glorilla is making his ‘SNL’ debut as the musical guest.
