CNBC releases details of new show “Last Call”

Brian Sullivan

CNBC’s new show “Last Call” will debut on March 8 at 7 p.m. with anchor Brian Sullivan.

Maxwell Meyers will serve as the senior executive producer. The show replaces a general news show that was hosted by Shepard Smith.

“‘Last Call’ is about spotting tomorrow’s opportunities and finding new perspectives on the action. We don’t stop thinking about money just because the market has closed,” said Dan Colarusso, CNBC senior vice president, in a statement.

A veteran journalist for more than 25 years, Sullivan has served as an anchor and senior national correspondent for the network covering some of the nation’s biggest stories. Most recently, he was the anchor of CNBC’s “Worldwide Exchange” and co-anchor of “Power Lunch” (M-F, 2PM-3PM ET), and reported on one of the most-watched CNBC documentaries, “America’s Gun: Rise of the AR-15.”

Meyers has helped build several successful multiplatform programs and franchises around investing, insight and education during his time at CNBC. Most recently, he was senior executive producer of “Squawk Box,” CNBC’s flagship morning program and the network’s longest running show.
