Overview:
This Hour Has 22 Minutes is a long-running Canadian satirical news and sketch-comedy series that airs on CBC Television. Debuting in 1993, the show lampoons politics, current events, and media through fake newscasts, field pieces, and interviews, mixing weekly topical monologues with character-driven sketches and digital shorts. Over the decades it has featured a rotating ensemble of comedians and writers, quick-turnaround segments that respond to breaking stories, and recurring bits that parody public figures, press conferences, campaign trails, and question period. Known for its irreverent tone and pointed political humor, the series has become a Canadian cultural touchstone, frequently sparking conversation beyond the broadcast, and has earned numerous awards for comedy writing and performance.
