The half-hour show will combine stand-up comedy, panels, and improvisational games as two teams of comedians satirize news, pop culture, and world events, according to the website.

 

“Two things I’m most passionate about in life are paying my landlord and making people laugh. We could all use a little bit more laughter as we continue to navigate today’s crazy world,” Noah said in a statement.

“After 21 successful seasons on the BBC, we can’t wait to bring the format to the U.S. and work with America’s deep pool of brilliant comedians,” Patterson added.
