“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,” said Wood Jr., Ruffin and Black in a joint statement.

Always relevant and of-the-moment, Have I Got News For You serves up a smart and edgy take on the news of the week, as the comic trio guides a rotating collection of guests through an array of games and quick-witted panel conversations that test their knowledge of current events. Alongside CNN’s encore presentation of Real Time with Bill Maher, the network’s Saturday primetime lineup of topical entertainment has solidified CNN as a top cable destination on Saturday nights.
