Hughesy, We Have a Problem is an Australian comedy panel television series which premiered on Network 10 on 30 January 2018. The program was hosted by Dave Hughes, who along with a panel of comedians, attempted to solve problems of viewers, guests, panellists or the host.[1] The show was filmed at Network 10 Studios in Pyrmont, a suburb in Sydney's inner city.

Production

The program was announced in October 2017, with Hughes defecting from his previous contract with the Nine Network as a co-host of The Footy Show to host the new Network Ten format, which was commissioned for 8 episodes and filmed in late 2017.[2][3] The series is produced by Screentime.[4] Due to positive social media feedback, Network Ten renewed the show for a second season, which aired from the week following the season one finale.[5]

In May 2018, the series was renewed for a third season.[6]

On Monday 23 December 2019, Hughesy, We Have a Problem aired its Christmas special episode.[7]

In October 2021, Network 10 officially announced that the show had been cancelled after five seasons.[8]
