Huckabee is an American television talk show hosted by former governor of Arkansas Mike Huckabee. The program's format was modeled after late-night talk shows, featuring an opening monologue, interviews, and musical performances.
The series was originally broadcast by Fox News Channel from September 27, 2008, to January 3, 2015, when Huckabee ended the show to focus on his 2016 presidential campaign. On October 7, 2017, Huckabee was revived by TBN, with the program moving to the auditorium of TBN's Trinity Music City complex in Hendersonville, Tennessee.
The TBN run of Huckabee concluded on January 11, 2025, after Huckabee was nominated by president-elect Donald Trump to serve as ambassador to Israel.
The show featured a house band known as The Little Rockers (a pun on Little Rock, Arkansas, where Huckabee once served) which featured several Fox News staff members, including Huckabee on bass guitar, and chief religious correspondent Lauren Green on keyboard.
In November 2024, president-elect Donald Trump named Huckabee his presumptive nominee to be United States ambassador to Israel. In January 2025, Huckabee and TBN announced that Huckabee would conclude with a 90-minute series finale on January 11, 2025, with the Gaither Gospel Hour with Bill Gaither and Gloria Gaither moving into its Saturday-night timeslot.
