Friday Live (originally titled Friday Night Live) is an Australian television commentary program that was broadcast on Sky News Live. The series premiered on 5 July 2013 as an extension of the Paul Murray Live brand.[1] The program is hosted by conservative journalist and commentator Chris Kenny.

Similar to Paul Murray Live, sees Kenny and his rotating panel of pundits discuss political news of the week.[2] Shortly after its debut, the series was retitled as simply Friday Live.[3]

The program was broadcast live from the Sky News centre in the Sydney suburb of Macquarie Park. The program ended on 12 December 2014[4] and was replaced by a second weekly edition of Viewpoint, which Kenny also hosts.[2]

Spin-offs

A spin-off of the format titled Saturday Live premiered on 10 August 2013, designed as a short-run format in the lead up to the 2013 federal election. The initial season ran for four weeks, wrapping up on 31 August 2013.[5][3] The show returned on 30 April 2016 ahead of the 2016 election.[6] Additionally, it was joined by another spin-off the following night titled Sunday Live.[7][8]

However, unlike the original format, both spin-offs are hosted by Janine Perrett.[9]
