Weekends with Alex Witt

"Weekends with Alex Witt" is a news show on MSNBC, hosted by Alex Witt. It broadcasts on Saturday and Sunday mornings and afternoons in the Eastern Time Zone. Before this show, Witt had been the anchor for the weekend edition of MSNBC Live. When MSNBC introduced a new weekend talk show hosted by Chris Hayes, they decided to create a dedicated program for her as part of their updated weekend morning schedule. "Weekends with Alex Witt" premiered alongside "Up with Chris Hayes" on September 17, 2011. In 2015, MSNBC made changes to its daytime lineup, and "Weekends" was temporarily removed from the weekend schedule. However, Alex Witt continued to host in the same time slot from 12 PM to 2 PM, but it was categorized under MSNBC Live. Eventually, her show was reinstated as "Weekends with Alex Witt" and given its own branding, separate from MSNBC Live.
