On October 11, 1975, Lorne Michaels prepares for the chaotic first episode of NBC's Saturday Night as tensions run high behind the scenes. With network executives on edge and ready to pull the plug, Michaels faces pressure from his boss, Dick Ebersol, and lack of faith from Johnny Carson. Cast and crew members are on shaky ground: Garrett Morris questions his fit in a comedic cast; John Belushi is defiant; Chevy Chase faces conflicts; and writer Jim Henson feels slighted. As misunderstandings, disagreements, and last-minute crises unfold, Michaels finds a spark of hope in writer Alan Zweibel and performer Andy Kaufman. With the pressure mounting, the team scrambles to finalize the sets and sketches, and despite the obstacles, the episode airs, marking a bold start to what becomes an iconic show.
