Season 30 of Saturday Night Live began on October 2, 2004, hosted by Ben Affleck with musical guest Nelly and ended on May 21, 2005, hosted by Lindsay Lohan with musical guest Coldplay.
Before the start of this season, longtime cast member Jimmy Fallon left the show after six seasons with the cast since 1998. In the wake of Fallon's departure, Fred Armisen was promoted to repertory status, while Finesse Mitchell and Kenan Thompson remained as featured players.
New cast members Rob Riggle, an improv comedian (at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater) and U.S. Marine (making him the first and, as of 2019, only SNL cast member to serve in the Marines), joined the cast for this season. This would also be Riggle's only season on the show. In addition, SNL writer Jason Sudeikis (who appeared in many bit roles before joining the cast) also joined the cast as a featured player for the last three episodes of the season.
With Fallon gone, Amy Poehler joined Tina Fey at the Weekend Update desk as a co-anchor, making Fey and Poehler the first and, through at least season 49, only two-woman anchor team.
The story behind the Update desk is interesting, as several cast members and writers besides Poehler auditioned to get the Update desk, including Seth Meyers and Jason Sudeikis, but Poehler, of course, ended up winning the Update seat. Meyers eventually got the Update desk in 2006, after Tina left the show.
The opening montage is changed. The montage is letterboxed, which was likely in anticipation of the change to HDTV; the montage would continue in the following seasons, which were in widescreen. This was the final season to broadcast in standard definition, after 30 years.
