Have I Got News for You (HIGNFY) is an American television panel show based on the British series of the same name. Piloted by Bravo, NBC, and TBS in 2005, 2009, and 2012, the show eventually premiered on September 14, 2024, on CNN in the run-up to the 2024 United States elections. Two pairs captained by Amber Ruffin and Michael Ian Black answer news-based trivia questions on current events happening the week prior to an episode's broadcast. Unlike the British original, which has used guest hosts from 2002, the program booked a permanent host in Roy Wood Jr. The show received mixed reception but improved the network's ratings for its slot.
