Here’s some good news for night owls and the TIVOed:

Franken radio show to be on cable TV

Beginning Sept. 7, “The Al Franken Show,” heard live each weekday from noon to 3 p.m. Eastern on Air America Radio, will go on display in a one-hour edition on Sundance each night at 11:30 p.m. and 2:30 a.m., executives at both networks told The Associated Press on Monday.

The “Franken” TV hour is currently scheduled through the November election, but all parties voiced hope the show would continue on Sundance indefinitely.

It will help to fill that lonely time after The Daily Show when you just want to keep the high going for a little while longer.
