The TV marathon record set by FXX and The Simpsons is about to get one-upped by VH1 and Saturday Night Live. VH1 Classic announced today that it’s set a mammoth SNL marathon called “The SNL Rewind: 2015-1975” to begin on Wednesday, January 28th and end Sunday, February 15th. The marathon will include 433 hours of back-to-back select SNL episodes starting from season 39 to the first-ever episode from 1975. The marathon will also include blocks of themed episodes (Justin Timberlake, musical guests, former SNL cast members-turned-hosts, Chris Farley, “Wayne’s World” sketches, Eddie Murphy, Steve Martin) as well as SNL movies set to air on Saturday Nights (Macgruber, Black Sheep, Trading Places, and The Blues Brothers) and will end just in time for the live three-hour 40th anniversary special on NBC on February 15th.
