On n'est pas couché

On n'est pas couché is a French talk show broadcast on France 2 every Saturday night, presented by Laurent Ruquier and co-produced by Ruquier and Catherine Barma. It first aired on 16 September 2006 and is currently in its thirteenth season. Ruquier is assisted by two columnists, currently Christine Angot and Charles Consigny. Notable personalities have starred on the show, including Éric Zemmour, Éric Naulleau and Natacha Polony. Secondary columnists are also sometimes present, including humourists Jonathan Lambert and Nicolas Bedos.

The show runs for about 190 minutes. Ruquier starts by a monologue that lasts for about 20 minutes; he presents the past week's news with humour. He also presents some of the week's best cartoons before turning to his columnists for comments. The five guests (mainly actors, singers, writers) then talk about their projects and interact with the columnists. A personality (often a politician, philosopher, union leader) is then interviewed by Ruquier and his columnists for about an hour.
