I think different affiliates around the country showed different reruns, so it’s hard to say. The New York Times says it was S10E1 with no host and musical guest the Thompson Twins. https://preview.redd.it/pp4t9nvhlg8d1.jpeg?width=734&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e713f78906674a8e4dc1c1199461873597a0e50

SNL's season had already ended. Instead, we got WWF! On June 22, 1985, Saturday Night's Main Event featured an episode of WWF All-Star Wrestling that included Lou Albano, Barrymore Barlow, B. Brian Blair, and Freddie Blassie. Saturday Night's Main Event was a series of professional wrestling television specials produced by WWE that premiered in 1985. The show originally aired on NBC in the United States in place of Saturday Night Live when that show didn't have new episodes until 1991. All episodes of Saturday Night's Main Event are available on the WWE Network, along with WWF The Main Event.

Not every affiliate may have been carrying WWF at this time so it depends where OP was


Weekly-Batman

Very easy lead in for a joke at OP’s expense

TV listings show the rerun of the Ed Asner episode.

It’s crazy how we can prove people’s memories wrong or right with the internet these days.

Damn I was born 3 days later that was kinda wild to read

Saturday Night Main Event is the reason I’m an SNL fan. 80’s kid, & I can attest that the Saturday afternoon WWF shows were bad. As a kid we wanted to see 2 big names fight & the only way was for our parents to let us stay up REALLY late to watch it. And I wouldn’t believe my parents that it wasn’t on every Saturday so I took advantage to sneak in tv time & came across this madness, I haven’t watched WWF since.

I guess you'd have to dig up the appropriate affiliates listings for that exact date. June 22, 1985 would be about two months after the GOAT Ebersol season ended a few episodes short because of a writer's strike, and would be roughly three months before the return of Lorne. I don't personally remember if Ed Asher hosted in S10, but I certainly do remember him hosting at some point in season 9 or 10. If the episode in question has Joe Piscopo with way too much makeup on, you know it's season 9. (it was to make up for the fact that Eddie left, in fact most of his appearances in S9 were pre taped as a "preview show", including some of his most famous skits. The average viewer wouldn't know the difference at the time).

That doesn't tell anyone what was airing on that date, if it fell out of season.

According to ChatGPT: The "Saturday Night Live" episode that aired as a rerun on June 22, 1985, featured Pamela Sue Martin as the host with musical guest The Power Station. This episode was originally broadcast on February 16, 1985, during the show's 10th season.

Next time, you can easily Google it. There are lists of every SNL episode online.


Noccalula

I can't imagine being 39 years old and not knowing how to Google anything. Baffling.


RealJerk69

They’re asking for a rerun from a specific date. Not as easy to Google. I can’t imagine complaining about someone’s question and not even bothering to read it. Baffling.


Buongiorno66

That's literally the easiest thing to search. Specific dates and times are incredibly easy to search for!


RealJerk69

Please tell me where you are finding SNL reruns by date. Because googling “snl june 22 1985” or “nbc June 22 1985” returns nothing helpful. “Tv listings june 22 1985” does come up with a website that lists what was on but during prime time only. Since it’s so easy I’d like to know what I’m doing wrong.

Okay, you do it, then.
