BEIJING: The online video site Sohu is bringing the comedy sketch show Saturday Night Live to China.

Sohu Video is making the show available online in its original version without subtitles. The episodes will become available on Mondays, after the latest episode is shown in the U.S. A version with Chinese subtitles will be available after 10 p.m. the following Saturday.

The series, currently in its 39th season on NBC, frequently pokes fun at sex and politics, though Sohu chairman and CEO Charles Zhang said he is not worried about the show's edgy themes.
