Saturday Night Live aired its thirty-third season during the 2007–2008 television season on NBC. Because of the 2007–08 Writers Guild of America strike there were only 12 episodes produced in this season instead of the usual 20 (with 4 consecutive episodes made between February 23 and March 15) making this the shortest season in the series run and beating out both the sixth (1980–1981) season and the thirteenth (1987–1988) season which had thirteen episodes.
