When it premiered on NBC's weekend late-night schedule on October 11, 1975, "Saturday Night Live" was called "NBC's Saturday Night" to avoid a conflict with another network show. On ABC's primetime schedule that season was a variety series titled "Saturday Night Live with Howard Cosell." The sports personality's show was short lived, however, and so the NBC program became "Saturday Night Live."
