In making the announcement, Albano said, “We are excited to launch a new dynamic weekend line-up that will further solidify our position as the number one cable news network for more than two decades. We thank Steve Hilton for his show’s contributions and look forward to continuing to feature his valuable insights across our daytime and primetime programming.”

The Big Weekend Show‘s former 5 p.m., ET timeslot will now feature encore presentations of The Five & the new Fox News Saturday Night followed by The Fox Report with Jon Scott, which will remain at 6 p.m., ET on weekends. Fox News Saturday Night will feature a rotating lineup of FNC personalities offering a lighter take on the news of the week.

FNC’s weekend primetime lineup will continue at 8 p.m., ET on Saturdays with Brian Kilmeade’s One Nation followed by Lawrence Jones Cross Country at 9 p.m., ET. Then at 10 p.m. ET, FNC will debut Fox News Saturday Night.

Sunday evenings will kick off with The Big Weekend Show at 7 p.m., ET, followed by Life, Liberty & Levin with Mark Levin at 8 p.m., ET, and then Gowdy’s Sunday Night in America, which previously aired at 7 p.m., ET. Since its debut in 2018, Life, Liberty and Levin has regularly been the top-rated weekend program in cable news, notching number one in the timeslot during the month of April with 1.6 million viewers.
