The latest CNN Original Series is equal parts history, humor and personal reflection. Timed to the 250th anniversary of the United States, Craig Ferguson: American on Purpose is a documentary-style five-parter exploring topics like the First Amendment, individualism, capitalism, patriotism and the immigrant experience. Throughout the series, the former Late Late Show travels coast-to-coast, examining myth vs. reality with help from some familiar faces: Jay Leno, Tiffany Haddish and Jason Biggs, to name a few. The new show shares a name with Ferguson’s best-selling 2009 memoir.
American on Purpose premieres on Saturday, May 30 at 9 p.m. PT/ET on CNN, and airs over five weeks, concluding on Saturday, June 27. For those without CNN, Sling TV offers one of the most wallet-friendly ways to watch the series live online. More on Sling’s streaming packages below.
