Last Week Tonight with John Oliver

Last Week Tonight discusses news stories, current events, public figures, and organizations. Each episode's main segment covers one political or social issue in length, even if it may not have received recent news coverage. Alongside satire, the show uses self-referential humor, black comedy and observational comedy, and has been noted for its informative and fact-based content.

Last Week Tonight premiered in April 2014 and adopted its current broadcast schedule from its second season. The show has since become the fifth-longest running program on HBO, and was renewed for a thirteenth season, which began airing from February 2026. In July 2026, it was renewed for a fourteenth season, scheduled to air in 2027.
