The Big Weekend Show (also The Big Saturday Show and The Big Sunday Show from 2021 to 2023) is an American panel talk show on Fox News in which four rotating Fox News personalities discuss current stories, political issues, and pop culture. The program airs live every Saturday and Sunday at 7 p.m. ET.[1]

Format

The show is made up of six blocks. Each of the first five blocks is introduced, closed and loosely moderated by a different co-host. The co-host's block may have a single topic or multiple topics. On Saturdays, the show ends with a segment called "The Big Weekend Flops", highlighting the biggest fails of the week. On Sundays, the show ends with a segment called "The Big Four", in which the hosts share what they believe are the biggest stories of the week.[2]

The show is similar to Fox News' other successful talk shows such as The Five, Outnumbered, and Gutfeld!.

The program averages between 900,000 to 1 million viewers per episode.

Hosts

Since the show's inception in 2021, the program has featured a rotation of various Fox News/Fox Business personalities. Some of the regular hosts featured include the following: [3][4]

History

The show originally debuted on February 27, 2021, with hosts Lawrence B. Jones, Gillian Turner, Lisa Boothe and Sean Duffy. The program was featured regularly on weekends and was officially named part of Fox News' lineup in May 2021.[5]

In May 2023, Fox News announced that The Big Saturday/Sunday show would be renamed The Big Weekend Show and would be moving from the 5 p.m. ET time slot to the 7 p.m. ET slot on June 3, 2023.[6][7]

In February 2024 the show drew significant criticism for a discussion about a new line of sneakers launched by Donald Trump. Co-host Raymond Arroyo said "(these shoes are) connecting with Black America because they love sneakers. This is a big deal, certainly in the inner city. So when you have Trump roll out his sneaker line, they're like, 'wait a minute, this is cool.' He's reaching them on a level that defies and is above politics." These comments were called "outright racist" by some and traded in "harmful stereotypes" about African Americans and their intelligence. Arroyo has not been seen on the program since. [8]
