CNN has announced the renewal of one of its most popular TV shows, which was originally based on a long-running British panel show of the same name.
Per Deadline, the U.S. remake of Have I Got News For You is officially coming back for a fourth season on January 24, 2026. Host Roy Wood Jr. is set to return, along with team captains Amber Ruffin and Michael Ian Black. The renewal comes more than a month after the latest installment wrapped up its 10-episode run.
“Thank goodness we’ve got season four of our show to make sense of this perfectly normal time we’re in, where everything is stark-raving normal. A time in which everything is fine and nothing is wrong. Amen,” Wood Jr., Ruffin, and Black said in a statement.
