Fox is prepping a Saturday night gabber to be hosted by Wanda Sykes.

The Sykes show, which is expected to launch in the fall, would fill the void left by the recently canceled sketch series "MadTV."

Hourlong show would air at 11 p.m. According to Broadcasting & Cable, which first broke the news, the Sykes skein would look more like a panel series similar to Bill Maher's HBO show, as opposed to a regular talker.

Beyond the topical panel discussions, the series also will follow Sykes as she shoots field segments. [Variety]
