History
In May 2023, Fox News announced that The Big Saturday/Sunday show would be renamed The Big Weekend Show and would be moving from the 5 p.m. ET time slot to the 7 p.m. ET slot on June 3, 2023.
In February 2024 the show drew significant criticism for a discussion about a new line of sneakers launched by Donald Trump. Co-host Raymond Arroyo said " connecting with Black America because they love sneakers. This is a big deal, certainly in the inner city. So when you have Trump roll out his sneaker line, they're like, 'wait a minute, this is cool.' He's reaching them on a level that defies and is above politics." These comments were called "outright racist" by some and traded in "harmful stereotypes" about African Americans and their intelligence. Arroyo has not been seen on the program since.
On January 13, 2025, it was announced that the show would expand to two hours beginning on January 18.
In September 2025 it was announced that Johnny "Joey" Jones and Tomi Lahren were named permanent co-hosts of the program and that the show would expand to three hours airing from 5pm-8pm beginning on September 20.
