Top of the Ticker: CNN seems to be pleased with the performance of its satirical news show, Have I Got News For You. The Roy Wood Jr.-helmed American version of the long-running British series scored a Season 2 order. Have I Got News For You has paired well with CNN’s encore presentation of Real Time with Bill Maher on Saturday nights, retaining a significant portion of its lead-in audience. “For its inaugural season, Have I Got News For You has been a welcome and lively extension of the CNN brand, and our viewers continue to show enthusiasm for comic relief on Saturday nights,” Amy Entelis EVP of talent CNN Originals and creative development said in a statement.
