It’s official. Saturday Night Live is now on YouTube for all markets except the U.S. to help promote and potentially land syndication deals outside its current availability in 170 countries. Over 2,500 clips spanning the show’s 38 seasons are on the channel, with additional 2,000 to be uploaded soon.
The U.S.-exclusion is a result of a one-year deal between Broadway Video, SNL’s production company, and Yahoo! to allow exclusive streaming access of the show’s clips on the site.
