Below is an episode list for both the British TV series Saturday Live and Friday Night Live which were essentially the same production. The series originally aired on Channel 4 between 1985 and 1988, but it briefly returned in 1996, and there have also been a number of one-off special shows.[1] This was a variety show transmitted live, showcasing a mix of comedy and music. For the pilot and the first 3 series, after the live shows aired, they were edited into shorter compilation shows which were shown a few months after each series ended.

Full episodes of the live shows have never subsequently been aired since their original showing, nor have they been made commercially available. Instead, individual performances have been re-edited into compilation shows aired by Channel 4 in the same year, or for DVD compilations released between 2007 and 2009.[4]

Where known, the lists below are annotated to indicate if an individual performance later appeared in a re-edited show, or in a DVD release.

All performers and performances are listed in their original running order for each show.
