Cable often turns to comedians to talk about the news, so it was only a matter of time before one would get a show on CNN.

Starting Oct. 25, King of Comedy alum D.L. Hughley will have an hour on Saturday nights at 10 pm/ET (with a repeat on Sunday) to riff on the week's events. The weekly show — tentatively called D.L.

D.L. Hughley Is One "Unapologetic" S.O.B. | Today's News: Our Take | 9/21/2007
Last year at this time, comedian D.L. Hughley was on one of the hottest shows on TV. At least that's what everyone thought Aaron Sorkin's Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip would be until it slowly faded away into irrelevancy. Nonetheless, Hughley quickly moved on and is now going off in his new HBO stand-up special, "Unapologetic" (airing Saturday at 10 pm/ET). Here, Hughley talks about why he's not looking for forgiveness, the reason he thinks Studio 60 tanked, and whether or not he can take a joke like the victims on his recent BET hidden-camera show, S.O.B.

In the Works: Comedy Central Bets on Black | Today's News: Our Take | 4/19/2007
Comedy Central has greenlit the pilot Michael Ian Black Doesn't Understand, which Variety describes as a "scripted showcase" for the oh-so-dry, poker-faced funnyman.... BET on Wednesday unveiled a development slate that boasts 16 new series, including projects from Will Smith (Cipha, an animated sci-fi series), Vin Diesel (Hannibal, an animated look at the ancient African king), D.L. Hughley (S.O.B., a hidden-camera reality series) and Orlando Jones (Bufu, an [again] animated sketch-comedy offering). (Nice to see BET drumming up so much on-camera work for black actors.) Also in the mix is the 26-year-old cabler's first original sitcom, Somebodies, based on the indie film of the same name. read more
