The program was launched by the Fox network’s late founder Roger Ailes and was supposed to be a summer replacement show meant to hold the 5 p.m. hour on a temporary basis as Fox News figured out how to replace Glenn Beck, who had formerly held the time slot.
The Five became a permanent part of the Fox News lineup on October 3, 2011, and has evolved over eight years and remained successful despite controversial personnel changes.

The Five is the most-watched program in the 5 p.m. hour on all of cable TV this year to date, averaging 2.5 million viewers and 377,000 in the A25-54 demo.
The show has also become one of the most time-shifted on the network, and one of the few cable news programs that have been delivering year-over-year audience growth as of late.
The Five is an American panel talk show on Fox News Channel in which five commentators discuss current stories, political issues, and pop culture.
The one-hour show premiered on July 11, 2011, and airs live weekdays from 5 p.m. ET (with a repeat of Friday’s airing at 5 a.m. ET on Saturday mornings), unless breaking news interrupts.
