My, you are here early, Ms. Shannon.

In the first promotional spot for Molly Shannon’s hosting gig on SNL this weekend, the ex-troupe member can’t contain her excitement about returning to the place that made her a household name.

In fact, she’s about three days early for her big appearance — which a crew member not-so-happily reminds her about. “They don’t come in until Saturday,” he tells her.

“Oh, they still do it on Saturdays?” she asks. “I don’t know why for some reason I thought it was Wednesdays.”

Shannon opts to wait backstage for her big return.

The comedienne was a member of the SNL troupe from 1995 to 2001.

In 1999, Shannon starred in Superstar, a feature film based on her SNL character Mary Katherine Gallagher.
