THE ED SHOW, hosted by Ed Schultz will return to MSNBC starting Saturday, May 11 at 5 p.m. ET. The Saturday and Sunday show will debut as a one-hour long program expanding to a two-hour format from 5-7 p.m. ET later this summer. James Holm who is currently the Executive Producer of "The Ed Schultz Radio Show" will serve as acting Executive Producer of "The Ed Show".

Karen Finney's new program will also debut on May 11 from 4-5 p.m. ET. More information on the program will be announced in the coming days.

As previously announced, the move is an expansion of MSNBC's live weekend programming. In a statement MSNBC President Phil Griffin said, "I'm thrilled for Ed and happy to be expanding our weekend programming. It's an exciting time for MSNBC and I'm looking forward to having Ed's powerful voice on our network for a long time."

On Finney, Griffin said "Karen's rich background in both education policy and politics will add a unique point of view to our expanding live weekend programming."
