Karvelas was an Australian television commentary program broadcast weekly on Sky News Australia. The program, airing Sundays at 7pm AEST/AEDT and broadcast from Melbourne, was hosted by Patricia Karvelas. The series premiered on 7 February 2016.[2] First announced in December 2015,[3] the program covers political and national affairs.[4]

Karvelas described the program prior to its launch as "an engaging, no-holds-barred, deep dive into the world of politics and policy."[5] Karvelas also presents a daily radio program on Radio National, part of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, who own Sky News Australia's only local 24-hour news competitor ABC News 24.[6]

The program ended in 2017, with Karvelas defecting to ABC News to host National Wrap on the public broadcaster in 2018.[7]
