In May 2019, it was announced Deutsch would be hosting his own show, "Saturday Night Politics with Donny Deutsch" on MSNBC filling the network's vacant 8 PM time-slot on Saturdays. The show began airing on Saturday, May 4, 2019 and received sluggish viewership during the first few weeks. In its first eight weeks, the show averaged just 74,000 viewers in the 25-54 demographic bracket. The show ended on August 13, 2019 after 13 episodes. Responding to the cancellation of the show on Twitter, Deutsch said, "I’m beyond grateful for all of your help in making it @MSNBC ’s highest rated Saturday night program EVER!"
