MSNBC's new, live, two-hour weekend morning politics show, "Up with Chris Hayes," makes it debut at 7 a.m. ET on Saturday, with a second show at 8 a.m. on Sunday.
Nancy Pelosi, the Democratic leader of the House of Representatives, will join Hayes live in the New York studio during the premiere broadcast.
"I'm super stoked," Hayes said when the show was announced last month. "It's like planting a flag in virgin soil. I don't think there is anything else on cable news that looks like this."
Hayes, the bespectacled editor-at-large of The Nation and a frequent primetime guest host for Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell and (before his exit) Keith Olbermann, describes the new show as "Morning Joe" meets "Rachel Maddow"; "what the Week in Review or Times Magazine or The Week is to Twitter and blogs."
