Gayle King and Charles Barkley to Co-Host CNN Show “King Charles” as Chris Licht Seeks Reset for Cable News Channel

The show was announced on TNT as part of the channel’s NBA playoff pregame coverage.

“What I think is so great for the both of us is that it is live TV,” King said on the program. “Whatever happens, happens.”Barkley said he was not intrigued about the idea of hosting a show for CNN until King’s name was mentioned. King, similarly, said she “wasn’t looking for another job.” At a lunchtime event at the Paley Center in New York Thursday, Licht was asked about the rumors of a King-Barkley show, and responded by saying “Wouldn’t that be a fun show to watch? Wouldn’t you watch that show? I would watch that, no matter what network it was on.”
