A British version of "Saturday Night Live" is set to debut next year, featuring the same basic format — including celebrity hosts and musical guests — as the American show.
Lorne Michaels will be its executive producer.
South Korea is the only other country with its own "SNL," per NBC. Efforts to launch the show in France, Italy and Japan were a bust.
