FOX News Saturday Night w/ Jimmy Failla [1] is an American news and political satire talk show on Fox News Channel presented by former New York City Cab Driver, comedian and Fox News Radio host Jimmy Failla. The program features a panel of three guests who discuss current stories, political issues, pop culture and offer "a lighter take" on the weeks news. The program airs every Saturday at 10 p.m. ET with an encore episode at 5 p.m. ET on Sundays.[2]

Format

The show has 5 blocks, with commercial breaks in between each block. The show starts off with a monologue from Failla. Then, he normally presents an interview with a notable guest. Then, in the next block the panel is brought in which is made up of various Fox News personalities and comedians. Failla then asks the panelists questions about various hot topics that occurred throughout the week. Following the panel discussion he typically presents a "Man on The Street Interview" where Failla hit the streets of New York to ask people various questions.[3][4]

The show is similar to Fox News' successful late night talk show Gutfeld! as well as The Greg Gutfeld Show, which aired in the same time slot from 2015 to 2021.[5][6]
